When the Olympic torch relay arrives in Beijing today, centenarian Cao Zuozheng won't be one of its bearers.
The 104-year-old Beijinger has lost her bid to carry the torch and her children still can't bring themselves to tell her.
Instead, they have managed to secure her tickets for several events and she will possibly be the oldest of the millions who attend this month.
