Leo my first Compassion child

My first Compassion child was a five year old boy from Indonesia. I talked my parents into sponsoring Leo when I was six. The idea was that I would sponsor him and pay as much as I could. When my dad  filledout the paperwork he signed his name and so the little boy never wrote to me. I was disappointed and did not do much for sponsoring him. I do not even know if I wrote to him. He was a wonderful writer though and I feel bad that I never wrote. It is like a bad dream and there is nothing I can do to make it up to Leo. He wrote about his stepfather not wanting him to attend the program anymore. Then we got a letter say his stpfather got a better job and Leo would no longer be able to attend the program. I was so sad. I lost my chance to redeem myself.
