Recently, a family in Kedah went viral on social media after an image of their baby, who had medical equipment attached to him, was captured and uploaded.
With how viral it has gone, many people are aware of this family and actively trying to help them.
According to Berita Harian, the father of the baby boy with chronic lung disease, Mohd Azlan Ishak has said that he recently went to a used car dealer to buy a car that can make it easier for him to bring his child, Mohd Aariz, to the hospital.
He brought RM3,000, which was part of the family’s donations and expressed interest in a Proton car.
The dealer then reconfirmed with Mohd Azlan whether he was interested in that particular car, and after receiving confirmation, he gave it to the family!
“When ask by the car dealer, he inquired whether I was interested in that Proton Persona. I said I was indeed interested, and I was surprised when he gifted the car for Mohd Aariz.“
The dealer also took care of all the paperwork for buying the car.
In addition to feeling thankful towards the dealer, Mohd Ishak also thanked everyone who helped him.
“I’m also grateful to all Malaysians who have contributed, totaling more than RM100,000 so far.”
“If not for the recent viral photo of us, a family of three, on social media, it might have been quite difficult for us to manage, especially since I just recovered from measles and was unable to work,“ he elaborated.
Many parties such as organisations, influencers or individuals have gone to their home to donate essentials and cash to help out.
Well, we hope that the family’s burden is lessened now and they can focus on taking care of the baby.
