STREET PROVIDENCE TRUST GOA , presents you this homeless man , who just 3 months back, was literally struggling to live on the streets , but today is fit and rocking.
On 16.1.2021, Hubert Saldanha from Miramar, requested us to get Mr Lal Bahadur , an elderly man , help as he was sitting outside Lawande Electricals Panjim, for over 6 months in a dirty and sad state.
Our volunteers got him off the streets and into our home.
The day we picked him, he was all soiled in his urine and his feaces with terrible smell around him .
Alcohol had overtaken his body and his nerves were very weak.
For close to a month he was on a wheel chair and one man would massage his legs daily.
Doctor played a major part In his detoxification and his recovery to an extent he can now stand, walk, have a bath, use the washroom .
No trouble now.
Attached a picture of him when picked up
Also his picture as of today
Watch the 4 min video of him walking that day and today.

Getting such men off the streets is very difficult and expensive as numerous blood tests have to be done to understand their medical history.
Blood tests are very very expensive .
Per man atleast 6 to 8 tests within the 1st three months to understand what he is carrying in his body and what medicine is required to stabilize him.
With a good Doctor as our volunteer who even visits the home late night after his work , the recovery of our men are very quick and fast.
♡♡ Thanks to Hubert Saldanha for following up with me those days to get Lal Bahadur off the streets.
With Covid spreading quickly , alot of such helpless homeless people will require rehabilitation.
Its going to be a very risky and dangerous situation picking up such homeless people.
But we are going to get as many as possible off the streets.
We @ Street Providence are committed during this very crucial stage of the pandemic to help the old , sick , abandoned homeless street men in Goa .
Plus now touching any homeless person is risky due to COVID , but yet we need to show and live HUMANITY .
