Anthony is 80 years old. He lives by himself in his own home. He spends most of his time in front of the TV
his favorite programs like, football, baseball, and car racing. I’ve
him for about six years and his
breaks my heart. Anthony reminds me of my own grandfather.
Anthonhy is from the isalnd of Malta, a small island in the Mediterranean Sea. He came to the United States, like
of us, to look for a better future for his family. He
eight kids and they live in the United states but
of them live near him in Florida and nor do they visit him. I
him once a day to check on him and spend some
time with him.
I even watch TV with him that I don’t even
, but the
is that he feels someone is there
him company. When he gets sick, or does not feel
enough to cook, I will cross my fence and start
for him.
I will run some errands (跑腿) for him. When he has an appointment with his
_ , I will drive him too. I’ll fix his remote control when it is not
, etc…If something breaks or stops working, he calls me because he knows he can
me anytime.
It is important to care about someone,
it isn’t your own family. You would be
of yourself when you do help someone. I am pretty sure there are many Anthonys out there facing the same loneliness. Please
a difference in someone’s life.
