The picture shows a father who brought his daughters to a fast food restaurant, bought them food, and watched them eat. His father’s name is Ryan Arebuabo, he is 38 years old and sits on an orange plastic chair, watching his daughters, Rose Ann (8 years old) and Rose Mae (6 years old) while devouring the fried chicken ordered by him. . Sarajan later learned that the man had brought them there to celebrate the fact that the little girl had succeeded in school.
Ryan Abobuebo in Tondo Manila is a stroke victim who is trying to make a difference in the lives of his two daughters.
Their case has attracted the attention of a whole world and since the image was posted on Facebook, hundreds of people have offered their help. The truth behind the picture is this: the father is hungry, he can’t afford to buy anything for himself, so he simply watches his daughters eat happily, he is happy because he was able to buy them at least this special food.
Four years ago, Arebuabo suffered a stroke that left him partially paralyzed and with speech difficulties. Since then, he has not been able to sell boiled corn in the neighborhood, so his wife left him and took his little girls.
Although he could not persuade his wife to return to him, he eventually won custody of the children. All three live in a poor area of Tondo, Manila, and their main income is social assistance, but, in addition, the man tries every day to sell as many small objects behind a small makeshift kiosk. The good news is that many people have already helped this father after finding out his story!
