Touching story

Just saw a short clip of a personal experience of a certain Bro. de Cruz in Jamaica (Missionary of the Poor - a new congregation). He found a 3 yr old girl dumped in a trashcan in Kingston; malnourished. He gave her a piece of bread and brought her back to their care house for destitutes; left her to eat while he went to get volunteers to bathe the girl. When he got back, he saw she only took 2 bites of the bread. Brother asked her why - wasn't she hungry? She said yes but she wanted to keep the rest of the bread for her mother - the one who dumped her in a trashcan in the first place.
