Saddest thing I've read in awhile. No doubt there are equally sad stories of child neglect and abuse in America, but there is something about this kid exemplifying the human spirit despite being given nothing but hardship.
It's so much for a child do have to deal with, especially at age 6. Hopefully he will get adopted by someone in the west. Our Medicine can give this kid a chance.

Guangxi 6-year-old AIDS orphan lives alone, eats rice and vegetables without oil or salt yet still eats with relish
In your childhood, what were you doing? Begging daddy to buy a toy, being pressed by mommy to learn a foreign language, taking the pocket change that grandma secretly gave you, sharing the bubblegum you just bought with your friends… When you couldn’t get what you wanted, did you sigh like a little adult: “It sucks being a child!” However, A-Long wouldn’t. By himself, he washes his laundry and makes his meals. Alone, he feeds the chickens and raises the dog. Alone, he studies and learns to read. Alone, he goes to sleep. A-Long never feels it sucks being himself, even though he is only 6-years-old this year.
