Today was our last day of classes for Monday is a holiday, Womens’ Day. It is sad to say goodbye to these bright students who have so much to contribute to their country. We hope they can reach their potential and be part of the strengthening of their country’s economy. They are remarkable individuals. Most have already endured much hardship and the double burdens of visual impairment and albinism are a heavy load to carry. We also thank the teachers who are so enthusiastic and doing such a wonderful job. The children are a testament to their love and caring ways.
We are gaining a true understanding of the reality of visual impairment and the constant fear which follows persons with albinism.
Tomorrow we are off on an overnight trip to Mpulungu, on Lake Tanginika.
