On Sat, 29/ 9/ 2012 – after my Jungle Mission, I
stopped by at Firdaus’, in Temerloh. I brought 2 packets of Adult diapers and 2
tins of Ensure FOS. Both items were contributed by Puan Noorina of Shah Alam.
This was not the first time I visited Firdaus – but after
every visit – I cannot help feeling sad and helpless. Looking at this young boy
lying in bed without being able to move his limbs feel me with a mixture of
sadness, hopelessness, desperation, frustration… not knowing what more I could
do to give this young man some dignity and comfort.
His twisted limbs and thin wasted body reeking with the
stale smell of urine is just so overwhelming. I can't help but wonder what would
happen to him if his mom is not around anymore to care for him. Would his
siblings – a sister and a brother – be able to take care of him? If not, then
what…..?
I feel so small and helpless. GOD - You are Almighty...
