One day due to recession he lost his job. He couldn't get a new job easily. He couldn't bare that he had to do meagre jobs after so much of hard work. He didn't stay on one job for long. He couldn't get his mother treated for chronic disease. She died and he couldn't bare it too. Financial and emotional strain made him break and he committed suicide.

One day due to recession he lost his job. He couldn't get a new job easily. He lost his mother due to a chronic disease. He understood that he had to face his situation. He started working round the clock. More than one low wage jobs. Got around an NGO that helped him get his mother treated. He joined the NGO and worked with them to help others.
