Sorry NAS, the same happened to me a few days ago when I saw the similar situation in Nepal posted by a friend in Facebook. भेरी अंचल अस्पताल को पोषण पुनस्थापना गृह मा उपरचार्थ रुकुम कि १२ बर्षीय कुपोषित जमुना बुढा  facebook link:  https://www.facebook.com/photo...

 These pictures should be enlarged and mailed to billionaires and millionaires all over the world so that they can decorate their living rooms.

NEPALGUNJ, JUL 26 - "Such an emaciated child I had seen only in a picture depicting hunger in Somalia," said Dr Bimal Dhakal of his new patient, 12-year-old Jamuna Buda. Jamuna was admitted to the Malnutrition Rehabilitation Centre of the Bheri Zonal Hospital four days ago. Just skin and bones, she weighs only eight kilogram, has lost her eyesight and weak to the point that she cannot even chew or swallow properly. Jamuna's mother Najara said that her growth was normal until the age of four. "First, she had a problem with her sight and then she started getting weak."      Najara and her husband Dipak come from a remote Serabang village of Kada VDC in Rukum. With seven children to feed, the couple work as wage labourers to eke out living.   Owing to the lack of funds, the couple could neither take Jamuna to hospital, nor provide nutritious diet to her.   "We took her to local shamans. Some said she was hexed by witch and some said that our deity was mad and had cursed her with the disease," Najara said.  "We, finally, managed Rs 10,000 on loan and took her to the district hospital and the doctor there advised us to bring here." Bimala Poudel of the Malnutrition Rehabilitation Centre said there has been a slight improvement in Jamuna's condition in the last four days. She said that Jamauna is being administered milk, jeevanjal and liquefied food every two hours.

Nas, Reading your different posts through-out the years, I always wondered if there was a heart underneath that rude & crude machismo exterior that you like to strut around sajha. I didn't think there was anything in the world that could appeal to that heart of yours. So I am amazed, astonished, humbled to see that an emaciated body of a fellow Nepali could reduce someone like yourself to tears. I am humbled because I realize how I misjudged you. And seeing your "tears" makes me question how many other Nepalese must be out there that I have misjudged to be heartless rude & crude machismo guys who don't give a damn about anybody else but themselves. I have been seeing some things on sajha recently that have been changing my perspective of Nepalese and Nepal. You guys leave me speechless...in a good way. It gives me hope about the future of Nepal. BK

"यो नाज़को कन्डोमा एउटा किरा छ; त्यों किरा को कन्डोमा पनी अर्को किरा छ ; यो मान्छे गाड देखि पागल छ"  - rukdhell Most of the time, I get commented on like above. It's very rare to read what you wrote. I am humbled by your kind words. Please know, it's really appreciated. Thank you Babal Khate bro. I have to admit, I am a softie like a cotton candy when it comes to the children. They are the most beautiful and innocent beings in the whole of the Universe. They bring out the inner kid inside me.

Nas, I totally know what you mean. I too wish I had the innocence and beauty of childhood. Adapting in the adult world with all of it's negativity can really have a toll on the heart. It is so easy to be jaded and cynical. Children are like flowers in that way--sacred. Sadly, maintaining that beauty in their heart doesn't seem like it is an option for children from poor countries like ours. They are forced to grow up way  too quickly just to survive.
