“Gladdi day” Celebrating going home dry

Pictures of this morning’s gladdi show women, who 3 weeks ago were at the lowest level of humanity – smelly, isolated, usually small, childless, uneducated and impoverished…and hopeless. Surgery, loving care, and a daily message of hope has transformed their lives. Now they are celebrating with singing, clapping, and dancing wearing their new outfits, first in devotions, and then around the courtyard. No one is dry eyed.
