It is with sadness that we share the news that Biew, one of the children in our care, has passed away. Born in January 2005, Biew grew up as a bright and joyful boy. His life changed dramatically when, at the age of nine, he was struck by a car—an accident that left him severely handicapped and in need of full-time care.
De opa van Biew gaf zijn baan op om dag en nacht voor Biew te zorgen, hem te voeden met een rietje en in al zijn behoeften te voorzien. Hun band was een krachtig beeld van onvoorwaardelijke liefde en trouw. Waar veel ouders verdwijnen in dergelijke situaties, was Biew’s opa trouw. Ook hem willen we eren, zijn enorme inzet en liefde voor Biew.
Although Biew's body was frail, his spirit was strong. Despite his difficulties, he continued to bless those around him with his kind presence and quiet courage. We thank God that Biew is now at peace, for his life was not easy. Friends died in the beginning, after the accident, came by, repeatedly left. It was a shared journey for young Biew.
We find comfort in knowing that Biew is now free from pain and in the loving arms of Jesus. Please keep his grandfather and family in your prayers during this time of loss.
