沙滩救生员用爱心温暖95岁腿脚不便女士和她的家人
Kimberly Waterbury, and her 95-year-old mother, Dottie Schneider, from Indiana, travelled to Alabama's
beautiful Orange Beach this October for a week-long vacation.
Dottie uses a wheelchair and cannot walk in the sand. Her family was trying to get her from their apartment to their beach chairs. That’s when Shane Martin, the lifeguard(救生员) on duty, stopped on a car and asked if the family needed help.
Shane helped Dottie into the car and drove her close to where her family’s beach chairs and umbrella were
waiting. He carried her the rest of the way and gently put her onto the chair, making sure she was comfortable.
Every day for one week, Orange Beach lifeguards met Dottie and her family to help her down to her beach
chairs. Then at days'end they took her back to her apartment.
"We are forever thankful to the guys with Orange Beach Surf Rescue," Waterbury said."They made my
mother feel special. She was not made to feel like she was a burden(负担) on anybody."Although trying offering money to the lifeguards many times, Waterbury said her offers were politely refused every time. "All the pay we need is watching her smile,"they would say.
