The remarkable feat of the Indian team of doctors has had a multiplier effect. The word is spreading and the lives of 353 children that they have changed would continue to be remembered by many of the Rotarians around the world. For us, it was a life-time of a memorable experience. Many doctors are just looking at the next opportunity to be a part of similar missions. And for the children, who would now be able to walk, it would be an unforgettable gift that these children living thousands of miles away from India, who would cherish it throughout their life time. For these children, these unknown angels came, wielded their magic wand, and made them ready to stand up on their own legs. Though braces and crutches would be required to help them support themselves because of the lifeless legs, they would be able to see much farther now...from having the world view from the crawling position, to now a position that makes them stand erect...with confidence and with dignity.
