What a sad story, I am guessing that the elderly woman was one of the last to board (only because 1st class boards first) and perhaps they already were running late. However that does not excuse this horrific behavior especially to this woman. Like Foxpat stated with all the commotion going on it probably would have taken less time to just let her get her sweater and meds. Sounds like the FA was on a major power trip and that the captain should have just spoken with her on the side and told her to allow the lady her stuff. IMHO sounds like the captain needs to grow a pair. Mostly I feel bad for her, and you too Foxpat but it is more likely that she is quite upset and will be for some time. Whatever happened to basic human compassion??
