The Boy They Call Fish

I know the fact that nothing much happen today. But let me tell you a story about a boy they call fish.

No! Not this kind of boy.

In Biology class today, we watch a documentary about a boy. A boy which is like a fish not because he a mermaid. But because he has a scale-like skin. This boy is from Vietnam called Min Anh. He's not just having an unknown disease but also been abandoned by his parents too.

This is Min Anh. Say hi.

But fortunately he had a godmother named Brenda. Brenda found Min Anh when she visited Vietnam 15 years ago with her late husband. After her husband dies, Brenda found comfort in Min Anh and that is mainly the reason of why she always visit Min Anh from time to time. She does not mind to travel from England just to see Min Anh.

Min Anh and his godmother, Brenda.

After watching this documentary, I've come to realize that the world is such a cruel place. They just don't care what's happening here. Take Min Anh for example, he had suffered this unknown disease for all his life but only start to get the treatment that he needs when he is 18. Another thing is the fact that Min Anh get the world's attention because of publicity. If this is not publicized, what will happen to him? Think about it!
