Why We Do It
I’m often ask why do we do what we do. It reminds me of the experience I was involved with.
A mother with three little children living in Boston. A 5 year old daughter, a 3 year old daughter and a 18 month old son. Her husband became an alcoholic and was beating the kids so they would be good. One night in a drunken stuper he proceed to unmercifully spank their 5 year old because she spilt her milk. The mother (we will call her June) stepped between them to protect her child, even though she was 4 months pregnant.. The husband beat her so bad that she was in the hospital for over a week and almost lost her unborn son. The children were put into foster care while June recovered. We heard of the situation after Social Services called June’s sister clear across the country to see if she had enough money to buy tickets for June and her 3 children.
June’s sister had buried her husband who had died of stomach cancer just a month earlier. She was trying to make it on her own with 4 little kids of her own. She had no money to send them. Three weeks later the social services called June’s sister again. This time to find out that if they paid for the tickets could June’s sister give June and her kids a place to live? June's sister said yes without hesitating. June and her children got to her sisters with nothing but the clothes on their backs. I can’t think of the stress that both of these single mothers went through and continued to go through for years. We can now help with the following.
