A Cuban woman rebuked the comedian Limay Blanco in his own home and accused him of ignoring her during a request for help managing a medication.
The artist leads the humanitarian project “Christ changes lives”, through which he has delivered 23 homes to homeless women with children, and manages medicines, medical supplies, wheelchairs, food and various items for people in need.
However, this work in a country plagued by deficiencies leaves its troubles, and Blanco did so in a video posted on Facebook, where he reconsidered the feasibility of continuing with the ministry.
The woman went to the house of the popular comedian and when he was going to enter his parking lot, he rebuked him harshly.
“I’ve been begging you for medicine for six months, for help, my son has written to you everywhere you can be contacted, you never gave me an answer. I called you on the phone, we’re still desperate. I’m very upset with you “said the lady.
Blanco clarified that he was a comedian: “I am a comedian, I should not do this. I should not distribute medicines, nor deliver so many houses, I should live like all comedians who do not care if you ate or not You are claiming me because I have not been able to help you, “he told her.
The lady, however, claimed that he should set up a telephone, and when he replied that he did not have to attend to anyone, the woman replied: “Well, go away, so no one can claim you.”
Blanco reminds her that 23 houses and three containers of medicines have been delivered to sick people, but she claims that “it didn’t touch me.”
Finally, the artist indicated that he could finish the ministry “Christ changes lives”, because it is very difficult to meet the needs of all the people who require help on the island.
He also said that his car has deteriorated from loading blocks and bricks in it to repair houses and that he must go to sleep many times in another place outside his home because he cannot rest there.
“I’m just one person,” he commented.
More than 700 people have reacted to the artist’s publication and have asked him: “don’t give up”, “don’t stop” doing good, in a country where poverty has grown to alarming levels and vulnerable people are increasingly found more unprotected
Limay has become in recent years a true philanthropist who has surprised by his ability to solve problems for Cuban families who subsist in conditions of extreme vulnerability.
Last month, Blanco handed over a house – the number 23 purchased thanks to donations from Cubans inside and outside the island – to a Cuban mother of three who sold her hair to feed the children.
Through his humanitarian project, sustained thanks to the donations of generous Cubans living abroad, he aspires to deliver 100 homes.
He has also asked for help to get medicines for Cuban infants, such as the Cataleya girl, apparently affected by cerebral palsy, and who urgently needed diazepam two weeks ago, a medicine “in lack” in the country’s pharmacy network. Blanco managed to manage the drug through her network of followers.
At the end of that same month, he made another request for support for buy a tv for an 88-year-old grandfather who had his broken.
He managed to get the equipment in less than 24 hours after your callevidencing that he is capable of generating empathy with others and touching the most sensitive fibers of Cuban society despite the shortcomings.
