Homeless man is crying at local burger king, doesn’t know that the person behind him is going to change his life

Published

As the saying goes, a picture paints a thousand words. And a photo taken by a Missouri resident at a fast food joint last month does tell a story all by itself. But it’s the backstory that’s pulled the entire community together, donating everything from money to clothing to help ease one man’s suffering.

Katy Hurst was going through the drive-thru of a Burger King in Independence when she glanced through the restaurant’s window and witnessed a heart-breaking scene: A lone man, his head resting on the palm of his hand, seated at the table with tears running down his face.

The homeless man was lonely, sad and old. At the age of 57, the homeless man had to go through a lot of suffering because his body was breaking down. He was in a lot of pain because he broke seven bones. However, he didn’t have the money to pay for his treatment.

The homeless man was praying for a guardian angel to save him from despair. At the same time, he no longer wanted to live on this planet. Even though Katy had posted on social media to help out the homeless man, she ever expected it to have a huge impact. Take a look at the video below to see what took place after Katy shared her post.
