So, not to detract from the horror of the story, but was he disabled or recovering from surgery? Because there is a big difference between the two, really.

If you read the Times of London it said “Barry Baker, 59, who lived alone, had dialed 999 saying that he thought he was having a heart attack. An ambulance was sent to his house while a controller kept him talking on the line.”
Then about his hip surgery. Do either of those matter to the reason an ambulance should have been called? I don't get your gist.

What difference is there, really? If he’s recovering from surgery, he’s worth saving, but if he’s going to remain disabled, he’s unworthy?

I’ve had a disability all (for 48 years anyway) my life. What is the difference? Should I not receive equal medical care as you because I have a disability?
