Chris,
It could mean 'person'. Your thoughts are very human for a family member. Often indigent people have friends who can offer only limited help due to their own situations, and sometimes the recipient refuses any help----and may consider himself instead a good helper and support for others even though he may be of limited means and capacity.
Warm regards,
Thomas
