One picture posted to social media has not only changed this young guy’s life, but a sickly woman too! Read the full story here.
This little guy's life changed after a chance encounter with a sick lady.
While asking for money in traffic, he met a lady who had to rely on machines to breathe normally.
She had been through 12 surgeries, one of which damaged her optic nerve, leaving her blind.

Moved to tears, Thuo offered the lady all the money he'd taken in for the day and a passer by happened to witness the entire incident, took some pics, and within days the story had gone viral.
Online strangers have now been able to raise more than $80,000 in just four days which will help with the lady's surgery.
In the meantime, she's also taken young Thuo off the street and given him a home.
