Thank you for gifting a pair of glasses to Gampa Narasamma.
Fifty five year old Gampa Narasamma is a resident of the village of Chandrapalem in Andhra Pradesh. She is a widow and lives with her son who got married 6 years ago.
Her husband died with some heart problem 15 years back. Up to last year she was able to manage her own chores at home and also help her daughter-in-law with domestic work. But slowly her vision has dropped since last one year and she found it difficult to manage at home and she felt very depressed.
When Narasamma attended our free eye screening camp in Samalkot and after a thorough eye examination it was found that she has cataracts in both eyes. We performed cataract surgeries for both eyes free of cost. Afterwards she found that she needs corrective spectacles for her to see well. When we mentioned her about the price of the spectacles she said that she has no money as she is not an earning member. Based on her economic condition we have provided a pair of spectacles to her because of your donation.
Thank you for your kindness. With your help Narasamma can manage her own chores at home and help to her son’s family.
