A poor family of man his wife and a girl of about ten years were sitting by the road, all crying; the girl from painfully swollen ear and the parents from their helplessness to help her as they had no money to take her to a doctor The man was begging the onlookers to help and few people were giving them money which was however less than what the doctor could demand. My wife happened to pass by and was accosted by the father for help. When she saw the condition of the ear of the girl., she decided to take her to a nearby ENT doctor mentally calculating that RS 150 as doctor’s fee and another 150 for medicine would cost her Rs 300.But the agony of the girl was too much to bear. She took the girl to the doctor and told him about the poor family and their difficulty to pay his fee. Doctor attended to the girl and then refused to accept his fee.” If you can come to her help why cant I” Then she took her to the chemist and he too refused to charge money for the medicine. And along with medicine also gave a pack of biscuits to the girl. The family was thankful and happy fo the help but happier was my wife for having got a chance to help. Moral of the story is that you just volunteer to help some body in distress and see how good people come rushing to chip in.
