I met a beautiful 11 year old girl named Sajana in Kirtipur, Nepal. I would like to share this story along with the pictures of her. Her home land is in a village high on a hill.
One day, over 6 months ago, she got a burn accident from a slip on a pan of boiling oil cooking when she went to the market. I could imagine how hard and how painful she has spent since that time but it's not finished yet because her knee has been bent so she can not walk.
She came to PHECT hospital this morning for surgery to release the scar at her knee. I think that she has been waiting for this surgery for a long time because I saw in her eyes the willing to walk normally after surgery.

She was explained for spinal anesthesia if she is ok to be awake during surgery. I think that she must be sedated. But after a little bit of tears because of the needle of spinal she smiled and co-operated very well. She speaks a little bit English so she asked me my name and she said she was ok every time I asked her how did she feel.
I took picture of me and her and she wanted me to take the pictures of her surgery that was happening behind the barrier of anesthesia and surgical area. I did one.
She was very happy to see the pictures of her knee straight.
The surgery was done and I was so happy to have the picture of her before leaving the OR with her thumb raising up. I told her "you are number one".
