We got to the house and we found this sweet smiley boy called Jacob Mase. He was dumpted by his father to his grandfather 3 years ago and ever since living with him.
The grandfather, ex tailor, age 73 stopped working after his sawing machine was stolen from him.
When we greeted this sweet old man, he appeared very shaky and weak. He spoke well in english with a very humble approach.
When we asked him how often he eats, he said that since morning he and his grandson had nothing. It was approaching 7pm then...
I could feel touched again - there is this urge I always start feeling when meeting people or children like this. Urge to act...
We visited his home, full of dirt and bad smell, when we touched that bed, it was hard as stone, it was a single bed made out of a metal, which was already half broken. The blanket smelled badly and there was maybe half inch teared mattress which was lied only half down the bed - the rest was just a simple flat piece of timber.
We bought some good food for this poor man that evening and promised to come back the following day.
Today, this man received a new bed with a completely new mattress and blanket and some more sugar and oil. The happiness was all over the place at this time :-)
The man felt like dying however now he feels the life is coming back again :-)
The beautiful little boy was wearing the same teared clothes like yesterday, so we will be coming back to him and give him the donations we pick from you our friends around London and Czech Republic :-)
So we all are making a difference! Thank you!
