Is there “HOPE” … for her?
It was a monsoon rain … raining so hard you couldn’t see the road ahead! You had finished working at a construction site – it paid well. Your only transportation was a motorbike. You and your wife run off the road and are killed. … now the rest of the story …
He was two-years old … waiting for mom and dad to come home. They never made it. His grandmother adopted him. This made a new challenge for this fatherless family consisting of a diabetic grandmother, the mother (grandmother to the 2-year old boy) and an 11-year-old daughter. Their lives changed forever!
The mother of the couple had recently lost her job as a seamstress when a flood washed out her business. She had to go to a larger town to earn enough to now feed four people. This meant that the 11-year-old daughter now became the “mother” for her 2-year-old nephew! This meant that she had to get up no later than 5 a.m. to iron her school uniform, awaken and feed her nephew, see that Grandma had her diabetic medicines, take the nephew to day care and then walk to school! After school, she picked up her nephew, saw to it that everyone got fed and did her homework. Eight years later, faithfully fulfilling her role as “mother”, she maintained a 3.4 grade point average. She knew how very important it was to finish high school to avoid the hard life her mother had … who only went through 9th grade. She wanted to be an accountant and received a scholarship to get an A.A. degree in accounting. From there she achieved a bachelor’s degree in accounting. Her last two years were especially challenging because her accounting classes were all held in English. Hope … and lots of hard work brought her to this point in her life. Today she works as a public accountant and is the bookkeeper for Sustainable Hope’s Thailand office.
She wants to tell you how thankful she is to Sustainable Hope for making her dreams come true.
