The family couldn’t afford the treatment of their little son who was born with some health problems. And what did their 6 year old son to help his brother shocked the parents. His act will leave you speechless. Who would have thought that a 6-year-old child could do this?
The hero of our real story is only 6 years old, but he has already managed to do something that even adults could not.
Meet Harry and Ruben – two brothers who were born into an unusual family. The fact is that the youngest boy, Ruben, suffers from a very rare illness associated with a violation of certain brain functions.
Reuben’s disease is so rare that only 16 people in the world have been diagnosed with it. The disease does not even have a simple name, but is denoted in complex medical terms for several lines.
But it looks like Harry and Reuben’s family were out of luck. Even before the boys were born, they had a sister, Olivia, who passed away from the same illness. Doctors cannot completely cure Ruben, however, they can help alleviate the symptoms of the disease. However, such treatment is very expensive and the family cannot afford it.
Harry decided to do everything in his power and came up with his own plan to help his little brother. Harry decided to walk 72 kilometers (from one hospice where his brother is being treated to another), and film the entire journey and post it online to attract attention and raise money for treatment.
However, due to quarantine, such a trip to the neighboring city was prohibited by the authorities and Harry decided to implement the plan in his own city. The boy intended to raise 1,500 euros for his brother, but as a result he collected more than 8 thousand! The parents were very touched by their son’s action and the support provided by complete strangers. They thanked them for their kindness and the hope they gave to little Ruben.
