In a fast-paced world, it’s easy to overlook those who can’t fend for themselves. But Stephanie and Al Blackbird, an Arizona couple, recently had the chance to help a sick Vietnam-war veteran and change his life forever.
At a grocery store, they noticed the elderly man clutching a 5-dollar bill, looking unwell. Despite not asking for help, they couldn’t walk away. After getting him some food and water, they learned that he’d been living alone in the desert for over 20 years.
On Christmas Eve, they went into the desert to find him and offer more help. Despite initial resistance, they managed to get him to a hospital, where they discovered he had a heart attack and had been malnourished for years. Further, they were able to reconnect him with his long-lost family, who had thought he was dead.
With the Blackbirds’ help, Alan is now on the path to recovery and reuniting with his family. This heartwarming story is a reminder that small acts of kindness can have a huge impact.
