Khamaghani Readers,


This afternoon from 3.00pm to 5.00pm we had a team of 3 doctors, 1 helper and 1 lab technician from Goyal and Satyam Hospitals, they came to do a nutrision program, dental program and regular checkup. Yes a Medical Camp.


Some of the girls were happy and some of them were very upset due to the drops of blood they gave for the hemoglobin test (scared of injection needles).


80% of the participants are malnourished.

2 need to get tooth extracted, cavity problems.

9 need a medicated toothpaste for bleeding gums.

14 are less in weight and are unhealthy with skin, hair, color or something.


We are planning to start up a nutrition project for the daily suppliments that the girls require in their bodies to fight the malnourishment.


Tests were made, here are the results from 2 of the participants, one example of the minimum percent of himoglobin and one with the maximum percentage. The team of doctors did us a huge favor by collecting medicines and priscribing the participants with medicine for a month usage.
