I was omw to school & saw a guy laying down on the side walk (like so many beggars in this city), so I walked by him and noticed that a guy walking in my direction was staring at the man on the sidewalk weirdly so I approached the guy laying down. tried to help him but he-
-couldn't talk or move but he was crying. was an old man with a cane & was holding his leg from pain. me & another man tried helping him walk to a clinic but every time he got up he would shake& fall. 2 nurses walked by & tried helping. I had no clue whats wrong w him but he was-
-crying a lot and started hurting from chest pain, started to groan lots from pain and face got really red. I asked the nurse wtf going on& said he was having a heart attack. she was so calm with it& she's like dw you'll get use to it???? I was so confused how people watching it-
-were so calm? so I sat down next to him and rubbed his hand to warm him up and promised he'd be ok& the ambulance was coming. every time I said he'd b okay he smiled at me& nodded. I helped him regulate his breathing to calm down and he eventually did but at once he clinched-
-his nails in my hand &couldn't breathe at all& his face went full blue. I couldn't look at him so I looked away he literally looked like he was gonna die. he started to breathe again& I continued talking to him to reassure him. when I whipped his tears he leaned his face on my-
-hand. the ambulance came 40 mins later& took him 2 hospital. I walked to the hospital and saw him in the ER. he hugged me& was crying lots, said he'd pray for me, hugged me one last time & said "you gave me so much I'll never forget you mate". I left& and came back later to see-
-him. I sat w him in the ER for 2 hours waiting for the doc, we spoke lots and opened up& ended up exchanging #s& he asked for a selfie w me as well. he told me he's never felt this love before& kept asking why I was still with him. now hes recovering and feeling better!
Moral of the story is that we gotta realize that everyones got their struggles and something that you can help them even if u think ur not capable. I had no clue what I was doing with him but God guided me to emotionally help this man and calm him cuz medically I didn't know shit
Here's a selfie that he asked to take with me in the hospital after we exchanged numbers ❤️❤️
