Mangaligari, one of those town names that is fun to say!
We are here this evening to do some clinic business. The town is about half way between Chiluvuru and Vijayawada. Thought I would make a quick post while we are here.
More wonderful experiences today. Troy spent the morning with Karna in the Eye Clinic as he did vision screenings and prescriptions for glasses. This afternoon we visited my friend Yacabu who once washed my feet in the street. He worked for the clinic until about two years ago when he retired. He is in failing health, but still reflects the spirit of love, service and gratitude that has endeared him to me and inspires me.
On the way back to the clinic we ran into another former temporary employee who welcomed us into her house. We were mobbed by a throng of children who walked with us from one side of the village to the other. We are quite sure that none of their parents had any idea that they had walk off with us. We assume that they all found their way home!
Short note tonight. Perhaps more later.
