Once I was at the airport on my own when I was about 22 which is not a big deal for most people but it is to me as I am disabled and cannot do basic things, like go to the bathroom, on my own. But I thought I would be ok as one assistant dropped me off at the airport, took me to the bathroom, and the flight was only supposed to be an hour to where I was going and another assistant was supposed to meet me. However, the airline screwed up and forgot to remove me from the plane. As I couldn't move without my wheelchair I was stuck on the plane until the cleaning crew came on and asked what I was doing there. I told them, "I am disabled. Please get someone to help me now." By the time they came back with people, I had missed my connection and was stuck in Detroit for 7 hours and 6 hours after I landed someone finally came to get me. I was on my own with no ability to pee or anything for pretty much 19 hours. I never flew alone after that, even for short flights you never know what can happen. By the way I didn't pay for the plane ticket either as I had requested assistance in advance I told the airline they could sue me for the money if they wanted. I'm sure they would have loved all the publicity that would have brought them, or not. I got two $100 vouchers out of the experience and a urinary tract infection from holding pee so long.

hello dinhquanghuy!Hrm I haven't been in a dangerous situation where I can't handle but there's this incident I'll never forget.I was in Chennai and I was at the temple (the big one,I can't recall the name of the temple).As I was walking,a guy harrassed me by touching my chest.And he looked rather scary too!I'll never forget that incident.Always be careful to all the girls out there.Never believe you won't be harrassed in a sacred place cos it happened to me.Be safe.
