Would you buy an elder person a bed if they did not have one?

And you could afford one? I was down at the local park and this older man started talking to me. He was very nice, very drunk but nice. He told me he did not have a bed. He was sleeping in a chair with a foam mattress. It broke my heart. I am thinking about buying him a bed. What would you do?

You're so altruistic, we need more people like you! 🤗

@HannibalAteMeOut Thank you. He touched my heart. He was not a user either. He said he did not need a bed. The poor guy is old and everyone needs a bed.

The story touched me as well. True, everyone needs water, food and a roof above their heads. I wish no one had to go through such bad situations but the world is full of them.

@HannibalAteMeOut I know, and it breaks my heart seeing people have to live like that. He has lived homeless in the past. He said before he moved to where is now, he was sleeping in someones barn. The poor man broke my heart.
