This is Sanati:

Sanati

She’s the girl who I talked about in my last post.

Here she is on her way out of the OR (most of the OR pictures are a bit too graphic):

These are the parents waiting outside the OR for their first glimpse of their children. Sanati’s grandfather is at the back in the cap:

And here they are together in the ward after the operation:

She was still dopey from the effects of the anesthesia, but his face says it all.

I will post more pictures. Operation Smile in the US have been really great in getting back to me with permission to use shots so I now have a backlog of pictures to clear.

Off for breakfast now and then back to the OR…
