applaud 'angels'.Angels exist! A couple in Buffalo made people realize that selflessness and care are what make a 'complete' human being. A Twitter thread explained how beautifully

a couple looked after a 64-year-old man who was "mentally disabled". The old man, identified as Joey White, was found "crying and asking for help" by Sha'Kyra Aughtry in New York's

Buffalo went through a 'blizzard of the century' recently.It was then that her boyfriend, Trent, went outside and found Joey, frozen, due to the extremely cold weather in the city.

Mother of three, Aughtry, used a blow dryer to melt off the ice off his red, cut, hands and cleaned him to prevent further deterioration of health. Aughtry even tried calling

emergency responders for help and decided to take the case into her own hands after no background from them. To add to his suffering, Joey encountered frostbite on his hands which

was "turning gangrene". Aughtry then took to Facebook and posted a plea asking for emergency help.TRUE ANGEL IN BUFFALO 💯 A THREAD: A local woman received a call on Christmas

to feel uncomfortable around strangers so she took the ride with Joey to the hospital and said, "No one is going to hurt you, honey." Joey is currently undergoing treatment after

doctors found him infected with fourth- degree frostbite.This is such a heartfelt story, it's almost unbelievable. Had it not been for Sha'Kyra, Joey would have died. The frostbite

on Joey's hands looked like it was turning gangrene. Helpless, Sha'Kyra posted a plea on Facebook for emergency help. pic.twitter.com/jHLwwEDlK3— Kimberly LaRussa

brother's life out of an "act of pure love".My faith in humanity is not lost, however, it is reassured with this act of kindness. — David Webb (@davidwebbshow) December 27,
