Reminds me of when I was on a Thai International flight from BKK - LHR a few years back. 30 mins into the flight, I noticed that the old lady in the seat in front of me was having a seizure of some sort. The newlyweds sitting next to her were oblivious to her condition, so I called the flight attendant, a young Thai lady. She thought I wanted a drink or something, eventually I managed to get her to understand that the lady in front was in distress. She went away and returned .... with a glass of water!
I started to make a bit more of a fuss and suggested that she try to find a doctor. Eventually the call went out ... and two Buddist monks walked up and started sprinkling scented water over the lady. Eventually a Sikh gentleman appeared with a stethoscope and asked the crew to find her some oxygen. He seemed to know what he was doing but even so by this time I was seriously expecting a nun with a guitar to appear ...
As far as I know the old lady was OK - she got moved to a first class seat until she was taken off at Delhi - hell of a way to get an upgrade though
