Suky went along to see this delightful
little girl at school yesterday morning and give her all the things she'd bought for
her on behalf of the sponsor. She was thrilled, especially with the teddy
bear, which she really hugged to her. She's probably missing her little brother
who grandma was also taking care of but has now been sent to stay with family
up north as grandma did not feel she was able to care for both of the children.
The visit to the house with the Social
Worker was a pleasant surprise - sturdily built, quite spacious and nicely
tiled, making it easy to clean. It seems that Tidaploy's parents had the
house built, but died before it could be fully paid for. However, another
daughter (married to a German) sent money to pay off the mortgage and now
sometimes sends a little to help towards living costs
Grandma, already turned 65 yrs old, is
unemployed and receives a 600 B per month pension from the government and 600 B
from a volunteers group.
Grandma said that she expects a visit soon from the person taking care of Teerawat, and we can give him his presents then.

It will not matter how big your bank account
was, the sort of house you lived in, or the kind of car you drove. But the
world may be a little better because your help touched the life of one child.
