Not all of us have the luxury of being with our family members right now and that could cause a lot of emotional stress. If you are an older person with children living away from you, there is so much you need to take care of. If you are a young person living far away from your elderly parents, you might be worrying 24 X 7.
However, all we can do is do our part responsibly and make sure our families are doing the same regardless of whether we are with them or not. This woman from Bengaluru is going out of her way to help the elderly in need right now, by delivering basic necessities like medicines, at their doorstep. How is she doing it? By cycling across town!
32-year-old Aishwarya S is an IT professional working in Bengaluru and has family back in Chennai. Since the current situation is so serious, Aishwarya worried about her mother who lives alone in Chennai, which eventually inspired her to help out the elderly in Bengaluru.
According to a TOI report, she is cycling around the city to deliver necessary items to old people and also offering to drop in for a friendly chat if they are feeling lonely. During a stressful time like this, it surely sounds like a great initiative. Of course, she must be maintaining her distance in order to make sure everyone remains safe.
She posted on Twitter about her wanting to help anyone who has elderly parents in Bengaluru by offering to check on them and see if they need anything.?
Her now-viral tweet has over 5K retweets and 25K likes. People are lauding her for her selflessness and appreciating her initiative.
We need more Samaritans like Aishwarya! More power to you!
