Last October, right after the earthquake, an army officer who is a good friend of mine went to
the impacted area to help. Miraculously he rescued a 2-3 month old baby girl from the rubble … this was about 72 hours after the earthquake. The baby needed medical attention. Luckily there was a helicopter available and she was flown to Islamabad. The hospitals there were in chaos .. fortunately my friend’s wife is a doctor and she took care of the baby. Today that baby girl is a healthy and happy child.

I saw this child when I went to Pakistan a few months ago. I admired her courage and strong will which shows through her eyes. I thought about her destiny and how my friend was able
to help save her life. We can all make a difference in a survivor’s life … there is lot of opportunity if we care. As Adil mentioned the silent misery of the living is relatively easy to forget. Let’s setup reminders in our calendars to avoid this.

I hope this blog will continue to nudge us to action.
