Arpita was eight
years old when she joined Amcha Ghar,
Her uncle harassed her mother to the point of suicide,
and her mother died in front of her eyes. When she
joined us she was mentally disturbed and terrified
of men. Her aggregate marks in school were two. It
was very difficult for her to cope with her studies
and social environment.
Success Story
:
With special care and attention, Arpita has made slow
but steady progress. She passed 10th
standard from open school and completed her sewing
course. She has completed her pre-primary teacher’s
training course and assists us in teaching at Amcha
Ghar School. She has developed confidence and likes
when the children call her `Teacher`.
Case Study
:
Seema joined us when she was five
years old. She had witnessed the death of
her immediate family members one after another. When
her mother died, she did not react. But after twelve
days, it was very difficult for us to look after her.
She needed constant attention, care and love. On her
request, we prayed for her mother in our evening prayers
for twelve days. Time and again, she had to be assured
that her mother had left her in my care and that I
would be her surrogate mother and look after her.
Success Story :
Today she is fine and healthy. She
is intelligent and studying in 7th
std.
Case Study
:
Jamma joined us when she was four
years old. Her mother, a
CSW (commercial sex worker), brought
her to us. She was dressed in long clothes. After
her mother’s departure, we examined her and
realized she was fully covered with scabies. But she
had a beautiful smile on her face. After some time,
her mother stopped coming to see her as she was afflicted
with AIDS. Jamma used to wait for her mother to come
from Pune and hoped she would visit her at least on
her birthday. However, her mother did not call or
come for three years. Slowly she accepted the fact
that her mother would never come. We found a God-father
for her from the neighborhood. Jamma was very happy,
but her happiness was short-lived. Her God-father
died of illness and old age. This was another shock.
Success story: Jamma is gradually recovering and learning
to be strong child. She is studying in 6th
std.
