Rich Man in SUV Blocks Ambulance in Traffic Unaware His Son Is inside — Story of the Day
After a traumatic childhood event, Taylor mistrusted doctors, even refusing to move for an ambulance in traffic. This attitude almost cost him dearly.
At dinner, Taylor’s wife, Polly, pleaded for a nanny, saying, “I can’t handle three kids, my job, and the house.” Taylor refused, arguing, “My mother raised me on her own… I grew up to be a millionaire.”
Days later, Polly fainted, and their son, Mark, called Taylor. Neighbor Mara, a nurse, insisted Polly needed a doctor, but Taylor replied, “Nope. No. Absolutely not.” Polly was diagnosed with anemia, but Taylor still rejected the idea of hiring a nanny.
In a traffic jam, Taylor blocked an ambulance. The driver pleaded, “Sir, please move! I have a kid in the back who needs urgent care!” Taylor refused. Later, he learned his son was in that ambulance. Overwhelmed with guilt, he realized, “I was such an idiot. I could’ve lost everything.” Taylor eventually hired the ambulance driver as his own driver and arranged for the man’s wife to become their nanny, understanding the importance of using his wealth to support his family.
