Eye Camp March 2006




This year was a very successful camp! More than 400 people registered and 95 people had successful catarac operations. I was especially gratified because at least 10 or 12 of those were men and women below the age of 40, in other words essential to their families and now could pull their weight in the family once again! This is often the difference between being poor and being destitute for six or seven people who depend on every member of the family. This is what it is all about for me and my smiti, Sri Krishna Kripa Sewa Smiti.
Many thanks to Somnath Konduru, you`re the best, so kind and patient! Ofcourse much gratitude to my dear friends in France at Terre-du-Ciel. Hanuman-Michel, Pascal and Joelle were able to accompany me to the camp and they were very touched how the poor people flocked to the camp for help. LETS DO IT AGAIN SOON!
