The situation created by the coronavirus has caused a great deal of woe and anguish to many people, especially those out on a limb after losing jobs or any such source of income. However, goodness does exist in this world amid all that is vile and full of guile, as there are kind-hearted souls who lend a helping hand to those in utter distress.

Mehwish Wahab was stuck in a situation where she could not even feed her three children. Her husband lost his job due to the pandemic and within no time landed behind bars over non-payment issues. Suffering and torment constantly knocked on her door. Hope was not in her radar; apathy seemed to loom large.

“Early this year, my husband lost his job and we were in a dire situation due to no financial support. And within weeks my husband was jailed due to the cases of non-payment of his credit card fees which further led us into a mess as we did not even have money to buy food or any other basic necessities,” she said, while narrating her ordeal to Gulf Today.
