Seeing his hard work and the struggle he was doing for his wife, people’s hearts melted on social media.

Elderly man returns to work for his wife

78-year-old Richard Pulley was already retired. He had spent a large part of his life working and now he wanted to rest, but circumstances forced him to work again. In fact, his wife Brenda had lost her job. Along with his job, his health insurance also ended. After this, it became very difficult for both of them to meet household expenses and medicines. Richard told that he did not want to work, but under compulsion he had to start working again. He said that after paying normal household expenses and medical bills, he was left with almost nothing at the end of the month.

Husband and wife used to do delivery work together

In this difficult time, both the husband and wife together found a solution. They started delivering orders through food delivery apps. Brenda used to drive the car and Richard used to deliver food to homes. Both of them have been married for more than 56 years. Even at this age, both of them remained each other’s support. However, increasing medical expenses and limited income had made his life very difficult.

NEW: Internet users have raised $280,000 for an elderly man who became a DoorDash delivery driver to help pay for his and his wife’s bills.
