Walking, and with real hope for the future ..........
After 3 months in hospital undergoing corrective foot surgery to enable her to walk, Shrijana is today returning to her village where she will be under the care of local health post staff until she returns to hospital in 6weeks time for follow up treatment.
Our grateful thanks go to Dr Govinda KC, staff at Kathmandu Teaching Hospital, Shrijana's cousin who has provided personal care, Himshikhara, our our partner NGO through whom TNT is able to work and Bijendra Aryal, TNT director, who for the past 3 months has supported Shrijana in the absence of her family, giving his valuable time to ensure that prescribed medications and nutritious food has been available. Unlike the UK NHS, in Nepal hospitals rely upon family members to provide this.
Shrijana is now able to look forward to a life free from disability and pain - thank you to everyone involved, especially our loyal supporters who have made this possible.
