Today, I travelled to Gumthang, Sindhupalchowk and went goat and buffalo shopping for Ramri Didi. Together, we brought home 12 goats and a mother buffalo and her new born calf from the funds raised. I showed Ramri Didi the story I had shared of her in SON and read her some of the comments. I explained to her how after reading her story, everyone had come together to help her. Ramri Didi said, "This is just a dream to me. It is hard to believe. No one has been kind to me like this in my entire life." I asked her if she had anything to say to the good people of SON. Teary eyed and with full humility she replied, "I can only give everyone my blessing. I can only keep everyone in my prayers. That is all I have. I will take care of these animals like my own children. Please tell everyone I am thankful. I don't know how to express my happiness."_x000D_

_x000D_ _x000D_ I share similar sentiments towards everyone in SON and especially to those who came forward and showed compassion and were kind enough to raise funds for Ramri Didi. My sincere gratitude. I don't know how to express my happiness._x000D_ _x000D_
