The last two weeks Sahara, Sakshi and her mother Karuna had to stay in the hospital. Karuna didn’t eat properly and Sahara was coughing very much and they were afraid that she might have tuberculoses and pneumonia like Saksi had. It was a very stressful time as the staff had to travel back and forth to the hospital. We were afraid of not knowing how the disease would develop, keeping in mind that Ganesh and Suyash died of this. They observed them for two weeks in the hospital and treated Sakshi with medication. We are very thankful they are home again and doing much better.
Rakhi, one of our staff members has left us. Before she joined our team she used to work as prostitute and had some drinking problems. After a period of rehabilitation with another organization we thought she would be ready to work with us. All went well for 6 months, but she fell back into her old habit of drinking. She left our home and was found complete drunk in a slum area nearby. We have contacted the organization that helped her before and they will further take care of her. Please keep her and all our children in your prayers.
As you see things are not always easy here. Happiness, excitement and sadness go hand in hand.
