PENSIONER Frank Sobers says he is at the point of suicide.

The blind, diabetic, hypertensive 79-year-old,, who also suffers from Parkinson’s Disease, says he is willing to take his own life to escape the abuse he is allegedly suffering at the hands of the woman who was supposed to be his caretaker.

“I can’t believe a human could treat another human so,” he wailed. “I can’t believe it, no,” Sobers cried, as tears streamed down his face.

“If I don’t get help, it’s only one thing to do. It’s to drag through that gate door there and go under something.”
