The story of a Romanian found on a bank in London, Great Britain, shows a different side of reality. We are talking about a difficult situation, in which no child would want to see their parents.
Mihai is 66 years old, has seven children and has a pension of 800 lei. He left a Bacau village in London, Great Britain, by plane on December 17.
The other day Steve Benson found him sleeping on a bench and asked Dr. Daniel Mirea for help in understanding what had happened to him.
„I think there are a lot of people who are also disoriented by Brexit. The conditions for crossing the border are stricter! I don’t even know if I can use the newsletter. It’s confusing. We are not interested in anything, being healthy, getting home. “, said Dr. Daniel Mirea of DC News, a base psychologist, who also stated that, today, we have reached the stage where a man is afraid to receive help. And it was not by chance that he said that. Later I found out why.
Congratulated for the modest gesture, Dr. Daniel Mirea said that “I did nothing! My role is insignificant. “
Then I called Steve Benson to find out what had happened to him. That’s how I found out that they found Mihai on a bench, on the street, in a small park. From one to the other, he realized that he spoke Romanian. Together with Dr. Daniel Mirea, they discovered that he just stayed … there.
What followed for Mihai
Steve Benson accommodated Mihai in a hotel and will go with him on Sunday for a Covid test. Then they will take your plane ticket. Anxious, He told me on the phone that Mihai only has the Romanian newsletter and is afraid that, without a passport, he will not be able to return to the country, despite all his efforts.
He asked me, warmly in his voice, if I speak with Mihai, to assure him that everything will be fine and that he will not abandon him there, in the hotel or … on the street. What I did later.
I called Mihai’s number. A shy and embarrassed voice answered me. He did not immediately tell me what had happened and I understood his situation. From one to the other I discovered that he left Romania by plane, alone, that is, not through any agency, where, many years ago, he still worked.
Unfortunately, this time he was rejected. Mihai blames everything on her age and the fact that “they no longer found me on the computer.”
“What to do at home? Children, even if they are older, still * Dad, you are not helping us with anything * Well, how can I help you? I have a pension of 800 lei! I have worked before, I had a house …” Mihai told us.
“I closed my eyes and took this road”
“I closed my eyes and said I was taking this road! God knows! There, on the bench, I have slept since I got here. He couldn’t find me (ed. Steve Benson), God could find me! If it was written like this, I wouldn’t die at home … that’s what happened! ”, Mihai also specified for DC News.
Despite the situation he is in, he also joked: “I have no internet on the phone and four shows on television. I’m kidding you know I have salami, I have bread, I have … I trust God ”.
He is a man who has worked all his life, who has traveled abroad many times, but who, now, has been unpleasantly surprised by a refusal.
His family knows the situation and talks to them on the phone. He wants to go home, but is skeptical of receiving help until the end, although things have not changed so far.
I also assured him, at the end of the call, that everyone involved just wanted to help him. He seemed embarrassed about the situation and I promised to call him back tomorrow to see what would happen next. She received the news with joy, which showed me that she really needs support … Still, over the phone.
I was impressed, I’m not going to lie to you. And it hurt every second I spent talking on the phone today to understand how Mihai, a 66-year-old retiree, ended up sleeping on the bench in London.
I dedicate the conclusion to Steve Benson. I mean, here are some words he said to me today: “It is a wake-up call for other people. You need a “backup plan” if you go to another country for work and things are not going well. People are best when they come to the rescue and they do it with their heart. That’s what we should do when we can. “
