We are a group that prior to 22nd Novemeber had never met before. A few of us had been to the 'induction' event at the 'hub' in London in October, though by the time we regrouped in Calcutta there had been sadly one dropout and several new members. So how do we get on? Well by and large fantastically well. We are very diverse, with different experiences which have influenced all of us and the one area in common is thta here we all are together in India!
The power and strength of the group was amazingly well illustrated today. Lee had been feeling unwell and was much missed when she needed to spend a day or two in bed. Then this morning a late breakfast as it was Sunday. There we were talking together & eating together and suddenly Lee walked into the breakfast area, it was almost a surreal expereince, as a group we were all so pleased to see her, she was looking better and there was usch an emotional bond that you could feel! What an amazing experience this trip has been and thankfully Lee is well on the mend. Sunday evening here and our last organised visit tomorrow.

Wow! I have just sat down and read all of the blogs! What a wonderful and life changing experience you are all having. Great also to read that you have been moving away from only talking and listening to the project leaders etc. You are spending time with the men and women who are in need of help and support. Many of them, who have been disowned by their families just because they are ill. On a more personal level, sounds as though some of you will be keeping in touch at the end of your trip. Another bonus!
