98 year old dobri dobrev, a man who lost his hearing in the second world war, walks 10 kilometers from his village in his homemade clothes and leather shoes to the city of sofia, where he spends the day begging for money.
though a well known fixture around several of the city’s chruches, known for his prostrations of thanks to all donors, it was only recently discovered that he has donated every penny he has collected — over 40,000 euros — towards the restoration of decaying bulgarian monasteries and churches and the utility bills of orphanages, living instead off his monthly state pension of 80 euros.
there’s still good in this world

Everyone Please read.This is Crystal Stadler. This is my mom’s ex’s daughter. This is a dear friend and practically a family member. We grew up together, and she was like a sister to my brother and I. On 2/4/13, she suddenly died at the age of 25 because the state was not checking her blood for toxins from her presciptions like they were supposed to. Now her mother is in debt, and living with her partner, the person she thought she could trust…who on the day Crystal died, sat and selfishly watched TV as Crystal laid collapsed beside her.
Please read this statement written by her mom, Marie Stadler
“On February 4, 2013 my daughter suddenly passed away she had just turned 25. The autopsy showed that her system had become toxic because of all the Biploar meds and there was a lot of them that she was taking. That day she was with my now ex partner a person I thought I could trust to take care of my daughter, instead when my little girl collapsed and stopped breathing she didn’t try to call 911 or ask someone to help instead she watched television for an hour saying she wanted to see what I wanted to do. She is not the one that called me a friend of my daughter Crystal from school called and told me where they were and that I needed to come get her. When I walked in the room Nancy was watching television and Crystal was on the floor, I quickly turned her over and she was blue. I called 911 and started CPR till the medics got there and after working on her for 30 minutes but she had been down too long. All Nancy would say was “I made a mistake I sorry”
Please help out Crystal and her mother pay for her the debt of her funeral. Her mom has been reaching out a hand all she can, and has received no donations so far. She has made this page where you can read more and donate! PLEASE READ AND REBLOG:
