I wish to see animals, birds....nature...bountiful


Preeti, 7 years old, from Kamlapura, village near Nelamangala, was referred to Make A Wish Foundation by St. John's Hospital for wish Granting. She is suffering from systemic lupus erythematosu. She lost her speech in January 2009 and we got to meet her in April. The volunteers could not interact with the girl due to no verbal communication. She was bubbly and full of enthusiasm. With her sign language and her family, volunteers learnt that animals, birds, nature is her dream...and she would wish to be with them. We arranged to take her to Bannerghatta national park for a full day visit and her joy knew no bounds spending the day amongst animals, birds and nature. Her smile speaks more for her joy. We pray God for granting her more and more of joy.
