Help Ranjana Overcome Life Soon after her husband’s death, Mrs Maya Kamble had to find work to support her 3 children. My friend Mrs Kiran Agarwal engaged her as a part-time maid. On an enquiry about her family, Maya told her that her 25-year-old daughter, Ranjanas's legs were affected by polio so she could only crawl at home. Her mother had to carry her everywhere which was very demoralising for her. Mrs Kiran decided to get help for her treatment. She approached a Doctor who examined her & suggested hospitalising her for 15 days so that she could be treated. Kiran & I admitted her to Nanavati Hospital on 3 May 2004 & on 8 May 2004 she walked out on her own, with the help of callipers & crutches. Kiran & I were in tears & hugged her. We also got her a sewing machine. She learnt how to use it and now earns, Instead of being a burden on her family, Her struggle continues as after a few years the gadgets need replacement due to wear & tear. She faces tough competition from her neighbours who can walk around freely to contact their customers etc. She still can't go out without an escort as she needs help to climb into an auto rickshaw. We keep on replacing her gadgets through Sona Sarovar Trust since then. She requires the following gadgets: Her Sewing Machine & table : Rs 7000 (including delivery charges) 2 each Ankle crutches & callipers :Rs 21,530.00p Every little step matters so we are doing our best and hope others also help us
