A passenger at Don Mueang International Airport experienced a horrifying incident that changed her life forever while traveling from Bangkok to South Nakhon Si Thammarat. The passenger who traveled with two healthy legs will go home amputated after she got her legs chopped off by the airport medical team after she got stuck in a belt of the moveable walkway. Reports say that was the only means to set her free.
The medical team apologized to the now-disabled woman for the incident and promised to cover the cost of all future medical needs. But all the woman asked after she was freed was if she could get her leg back, to which they replied no.
According to VladTV;
On Thursday, a 57-year-old Taiwanese woman ascended upon the Don Mueang International Airport at Bangkok in preparation for her flight to the southern Nakhon Si Thammarat province. Unfortlualtey, the routine process of traveling through the airport’s ‘Terminal A’ ended in a shockingly horrific manner when the passenger’s leg got trapped under the belt of the moveable walkway. Shortly after the airport’s medical team arrived, the passenger was informed that they would have to remove part of her leg, from above the knee in order to free her. In response to the incident and amputation, the director at the Don Mueang Airport stated the following.
“On behalf of the Don Mueang International Airport, I’d like to express my deepest condolences regarding the accident,” said Karun Thanakuljeerapat. “I’d like to insist that we will ensure that no such accident will happen again.”
Eventually, when the passenger was freed, she immediately inquired about the possibility of having her leg re-attached. But her attempt was to no avail. The airport has indicated that they will handle all costs of the injury.
Her child will welcome an amputated mother after she left home healthy and able. This is the most tragic incident yet this week, and I hope the poor woman finds peace in her current predicament.
