This is Usha. She has been living on the street and begging for the last 5 years. Last week, her leg was run over by a bicycle and fractured. Since then, she has been in hospital waiting to have an operation.
As well as needing good food and medicine to get her strength up to the point that she can withstand an operation, Usha also needs a kind soul to sponsor her operation before it can go ahead.
One kind soul has already taken pity on her - Beenabai, a widow who has been living in Vrindavan in a widow's ashram for the last 15 years, took pity on Usha lying on the street crying and took her to hospital.
Beenabai lives on a pension and does not have the Rs 15, 000 (US$360) that the operation will cost. Ram Krishna Mission hospital is looking for a sponsor for this lady and have contacted many charities as it has been very to raise funds for the last few months. We are hoping that one of our blog viewers will come forward to help Usha out...
