Entering the elevator, there were quite a few people inside, mostly patients going up and down for various examinations. There was a patient who was also wheeled into the elevator by a family member. With two wheelchairs in one elevator, there was even less space for anyone to stand.
Someone suggested they take the next ride, but that family member pleaded, "My husband is in so much pain, please, if anyone would be so kind to give up their spot. If we delay any longer, he'll be in terrible discomfort."
There were still kind-hearted people around, and immediately two or three people stepped out to make room for them.
"Thank you all, thank you." As the woman pushed her husband into the elevator, her bag fell to the ground, scattering its contents everywhere.
Not wanting to cause any delay, she scrambled to pick everything up. Picking up one thing, another would fall.
