Medical Camp at Jhilling

Sunday, 26 November 2006

Fr. Vattamattam with a child

Jhilling is small village in Purulia District of West Bengal, about 85 km drive from Jamshedpur. Jhilling, like our other medical camp destinations, is marked by poverty and inaccessibility to modern medical services. We have been visiting them once each year now for many years; maybe not be enough, but some thing is better than nothing.

We started at 7 am, the roads were bad and it took us 3 hours to reach there. We were 11 doctors and 7 volunteers including Fr. AugustineVattamattam. We travelled in 4 Sumos and stopped once en route to have packed breakfast, since the route is devoid of any reasonable dhabas or eateries.
