Hello Friends, Suresh garu raised few valid questions with respect to this case: =================================== Any decision that we make in this case immediately will be a bit hasty. What I propose is that we can get his treatment started by making the first month's contribution. But too many gaps for me to make a long term commitment at this point.
I am surprised that so far no one has come forward with support of Rs 3000/month. Now one question I have is what is 'few months'? And what exactly are the needs that we are going to meet with 3000? Also, what is the future plan of action once he is cured? What is his background? What type of work can he do post therapy? Is that sufficient to support his family? What is his wife doing? Who will be supporting the family during his treatment? What are the details of the kids? Working or in school and how many? I think we will need to get much more information, before taking a decision on this case. Also, there will be atleast case similar to this in every village in the state. Are we planning to take up all these cases? What are our selection criteria? I think it would be good to define these and be clear on our activities. Otherwise every case that comes up, we will spend a lot of time in discussions and decision making. I had proposed the same for MAD. Would be good to have proper guidelines. One final thought. How come no NGOs are coming forward to take up these cases? =========================== Are there any member from our team who can take up this task? Remember, if anyone of you agrees to take up the task, they would be the active member for particular case and the responsibility rests with them. They also can ask for one backup person or someone to accompany them. The tasks include: 1. Meeting Mr. Govardhan in person. 2. Talk to him, his family and also the Satram owner 3. Find out answers for all questions raised by Suresh If we decide that the case can be taken, the volunteer has to be in touch with Mr. Govardhan and should give money only after showing us the bills or whatever. Well and good if they themselves buy the medicines instead of paying for the bill. As a member: As you all know, I am also tied up with Vonumu work apart from MAD work. Even office work wise too I became busy. So I cannot be a volunteer for this case. Please come up with your response. --- In [email protected], "ulprasanthi" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hello Sravan garu, > > I think we can take up this collectively like WWHY and MAD sharing the > amount. > > I will mail about this in WWHY group as well. > > Thank you. > --- In [email protected], sravan kumar patnaik > <sravan24@> wrote: > > > > Hi Pavan and friends.. > > Unfortunately I did't provide the details on time..The > information I have, > > > > Name: Govardhan, > > Age: 35+ > > Dependents:Wife and kids > > who is looking after him:His mother, wife and kids are staying at > grandpa place. > > Source of income: His elder brother helping him, now a days he > also not helping much. > > > > Problem: He is not able to walk(details you can find in the > medical report attached by pavan. > > > > Why I selected this case: He is Head of the family, there are > dependents.
