help someone » i can see my grandchildren
Grand children are a source of unadulterated joy for old people. Imagine not being able to see them and play with them. Or for that matter becoming slowly dependant on others for even day to day tasks. Not being able to ask your children for help knowing they hardly earned enough to feed and clothe their own families.
Many people like Ramshree just fade away. Death being their only savior from a life of misery. Fortunately for her, one of her son’s took the initiative to bring her to the hospital from their village in Kanpur District of Uttar Pradesh. Diagnosed with advanced cataract in both eyes, surgery was the only option. She had one of her eye’s operated and wanted to go back home immediately. When asked by her son to wait and get the second eye operated; she said “I can’t wait to go back home and play with my grandchildren.” Her weather beaten face and toothless smile post surgery perhaps says more than a 1000 words could.
