In ancient Greece there lived an old man (Cimon).<>
The old man was sentenced to hunger death, he was kept in prison.<>
The idea was to keep him hungry till he died.<>
His darling daughter who was lactating pleaded with the government to see him (Cimon) everyday at least until his death.<>
She was granted permission.<>
She was checked thoroughly by the prison officers to ensure she is not carrying any food for her father.<>
Pero couldn’t bear the sight of her dying father.<>
She looked at him with the eyes of of a caring father.<>
So, in order to save his life she gave him breast milk on a daily basis.<>
When Cimon was still alive after many days without food the government became suspicious of Pero.<>
On one occasion, the prison guards caught Pero breastfeeding her father.<>
The case was filed against her but her selflessness and attitude won and turned the heart and mind of the jailer and he granted her father freedom.<>
