The helping hand Esmin Green didn't get in life from New York City, she'll be getting in death.
Mayor Bloomberg announced yesterday that the city would pick up the funeral expenses of the 49-year-old Brooklynite, who was left to die on the waiting-room floor of Kings County Hospital's psychiatric emergency room on June 19.
The mayor also said developer Forest City Ratner had agreed to pay to fly Green's relatives here from Jamaica and back, and to fly the body there.
Six hospital staffers, including the head of psychiatry, have been fired. Two were security guards videotaped ignoring Green as she lay on the floor.
