I`m trying to get laptops to give away to them to help them with school and do webcam with a group of kids in the same condition and get counseling online with the psychologist from my church. I ask him if he was able to help them without charge and he say yes. He`ll have once a week session with the kids.
There is a boy I meet on webcam. His name is Jessy. He is 12yo. He was abused by a family friend and he is physically challenge. He can`t walk without crutches and need kinda braces in his legs in order to get strength in his legs an maybe do it in a future without the crutches. He is in a wheelchair and I decide to do something. We give him Ro`s power chair and ask a friend for help. Well, there is good people out there. Joe McGuire send Jessy yesterday a laptop and not just that, he send to a family friend that fix computers a 200.- gift card to help me to complete the money to fix 4 laptops that I will give to 4 other kids in my old school today. And there is more, Joe will send me 300.- more to fix 6 other laptops i get to give away to other kids. Joe, you`re awesome. Thanks God for you good heart. I have to say it Joe.
Well, Jessy needs therapy in his legs and uncle Robert talk to a doctor friend of him. The doctor will send a therapist from his therapy center to our house to give Jessy therapy in our pool. I went to a hardware store yesterday and ask to talk to the general manager. I show him pictures of Jessy and explain to him what people been doing for him and what my project was about. I ask him to give me a budget for a ramp in Jessy`s house and he make a phone call and told me that they will do it for free and to fix the doors house for him to be able to go around his house more comfy. They just did the ramp yesterday and the doors will be done today.
Now I`m rising money for his legs support. I know I will get it. Oh and the hardware store offer to add a ramp to Jessy`s mum van to carry the power chair, and for free.
My dad is taking him to get contact lenses cus he need reading lenses and they are too thick. Will be better for him to use contacts.
He is so afraid of the pool. It was crushing for me yesterday to see how much fear he has, but I carry him to the pool and just seat with him in the pool stairs in the water on my lap. It was bad cus he was shaking so bad, but I just hold him tight to make him feel safe and start talking to him bout the computer and whatever comes to my mind in that moment. He start to relax and after bout 45 mins was able to turn on my lap and face the pool. I was holding him tight and he start to move his arms around and kinda splashing water around. It was a good time cus Andres, Andy and Steve were there and he was feeling comfy, but i notice that every time I kinda lose a little the hold, he gets terrified, but I just told him that I will never will let go, that I died first before do something like that. Well, we were there for bout hour and a half. I hope that today he will do it again cus he like it. Pray for Jessy to be able to get in the pool in order to get the therapy he needs.
We give lots of things for granted. That kid can`t even take a bath without help, but he thanks God every morning, cus he is able to see and is alive for another day. He got a beautiful smile on his face all the time and the most contageus laugh you can imagine. His happy smiling face is all I want from him.
I love that kid. His courage and appreciation for the simple things in life, his faith in God and his gratefulness to God for the things that he have, have been like an slap in my face. He is teaching me with his example to focus and be grateful to God for what I got and stop complaining and crying for what I don`t. To go on and work hard to achieve my dreams. To love and see the beauty each human being have. Jessy is an awesome kid.
I will start my home school next week. Lets see how goes. I can. I will.
This is bout what I`ve been doing.
Kids be safe. Share love. Is lots of ways to do it.
Parents be on your kids.
A hug to every kid out there. Specially the ones abused.
And for the ones that maybe feel lonely and no body loves you, I do.
Miss you Ro.
Hugs,
luc
