Better Than Boxing A Bully

CBN.com —Vasya and Sasha are twins, who struggled all their lives because they have crossed eyes.

“Other kids make fun of us all the time and call us names,” says Vasya. “It’s really hard to go to school.”

“I tried not to pay attention to the bullies when they called me names,” says Sasha. “But when I ignored them, they hit me.”

Simple surgeries would have helped these guys out, but their family couldn't afford it. So Vasya decided to take care of things himself.

“I learned how to box and I exercised every day to get strong,” says Vasya. “I wanted to protect myself and my brother, too.”

But through their church, the boys gave their lives to Christ, and asked God for his protection.

“And I prayed that we would be able to see better,” says Sasha.

One day, CBN learned about the young men and took them to the best eye clinic in the country. We paid for their surgeries and in just two days, the boys were back home.

“I feel like I have a new life,” says Vasya. “I look into the mirror and see myself in a normal way, not two of me. I like it very much that I am like other people now.”

“Thank you so much for giving us these surgeries,” says Sasha.

“You changed our lives,” says Vasya. “Thank you!”

“Thank you,” adds Sasha.
