Michael's
Story
Two year old Micheal was living in a orphanage near Vellore. Our volunteer
Ms.Jennifer from the USA, brought Michael to Sankara six years ago.
Michael had a tragic story - superstition and blind faith of the villagers
made the boy blind as soon as he lost his mother - immediately after
his birth. With a very small chance of recovery in one eye and minimal
posibility in the other; he was selected to receive Corneal Transplant
at Sankara.

A few days after his surgery, they removed his bandages. Doctors,
nurses and others watched in awe as this young child moved his hands
up and down in front of his operated eye. It was sheer ecstasy for
all who helped.
