“The Heart-Wrenching Story of a Grandfather and his Car: A Reflection on Elderly Life in Bulgaria”

It may be fictional, but there are certainly many elderly people in our country who have the same difficult fate

Bulgarian pensioners are far from boasting that they live a peaceful and financially stable life. Unfortunately, this has been the case for a long time, and many do not believe that things will ever get better for the elderly.

Low pensions, loneliness and eternal problems accompany pensioners in every moment of their daily life. Against this background, in recent days, a story about a grandfather and his car makes everyone cry.

It is widely shared on social networks. The users who read it are adamant that even if it is a fictional story, there are certainly many pensioners in our country who recognize themselves in it.

Here’s the story about the grandfather and his car that made everyone cry:

Got up early. Wash the car. Pump up the tires. Check the oil. Add antifreeze. Greased the battery terminals.

He sat down and his memories started like a film reel. They toured Bulgaria from end to end without accidents or accidents… The children fell asleep facing each other in the back seat covered with a blanket.

For so many years, his car was more than a companion. As a family member…

The children went abroad. The grandmother remembered. It was time to say goodbye to the car.

The empty pension was not enough. Where does the money for gas, insurance, vignette, technical inspection come from? Until now, he only managed to pay the tax. And the car was sitting in the garage, ready to go…

I turned the key. He started the engine. And something splattered on the roof of the car. Startled, he looked outside. A man was standing next to the car.

– Come on, grandpa! Get out of here, I have a lot of work to do today!

It came out. He stroked the car and handed him the key. Then he didn’t turn around until the repatriation started.

He went into the garage. He closed the door and sobbed like a child. Then he threw away the four banknotes for which he had exchanged a faithful comrade…
