[QUOTE="spnadmin, post: 135183, member: 35"] Tejwant Singh ji I am always humbled by these thoughts I think this is a good example from the field of medicine. Two generations ago among Italian Americans, to be blind was considered a "disgrazia" -- which does not mean shame but means literally a "fall from grace." Blindness was to be endured because it fell upon an individual according to the will of God. Certainly people sought medical treatment, but at the end of the day the notion of a sort of curse always hung about the blind person and his family. Here is a Singh with a different "view" of things, a different "vision." There are dozens of Singhs and Kaurs who "see" things this way. [I][COLOR="DimGray"][B][CENTER] Restoring eyesight his vision[/CENTER][/B] Sanjay Bumbroo talks to Mr Anup Singh Jubbal, an NRI, who plans to open a charitable eye hospital to help the needy Tribune News Service AMRITSAR: Mr Anup Singh Jubbal has been doing yeoman’s service to people suffering from cataract or other eye disorders by holding eye camps in the border districts of Amritsar and Tarn Taran for some time now. Mr Jubbal, president, Canadian Eyesight International, a charitable organisation looking to provide eyesight to people in India, has been raising funds in Surrey, Canada, for setting up a state-of-the-art Sri Hargobind Sahib Mata Sulakhni Eye Hospital at Chabba in Tarn Taran. He plans to build a hospital that would not only provide cataract surgeries free of cost and conduct eye clinics but also impart education and training to youths. Lamenting on the lack of support from the government, Mr Jubbal, while talking with The Tribune, said he had so far not received any financial or other aid from the state or the Central governments. But if the government wanted to help them, he would welcome the move, as it would give a philip to the project. He said a 24,000 sq ft building was recently donated by a local charitable organisation for the setting up of the project. He was now planning to set up a permanent hospital and preventable blindness centre there. Mr Jubbal, who has studied up to Class 12, had migrated to Canada in 1968. In the beginning, he had to work very hard but the lady luck soon smiled at him and he set up a real estate business there. He had to suffer losses in the business but that did not deter him from doing hard work again and getting back to his feet. He said ups and downs in the life taught him that money could provide everything except peace of mind. “This hospital is crucial and we need the support of the community,” said Mr Jubbal, who is also member of the Rotary Club Surrey-Guildford. He said though eye surgery cost just Rs 1,750, it was beyond the reach of a majority of people in India, especially those living in villages. He said blindness was 80 per cent preventable with good nutrition, sanitation, medicine or surgery. Honoured by Prime Minister and Governor in the past for his services, Mr Jubbal said he was being well supported by his wife, Sarup Kaur Jubbal, in his cause. He said the Project Eyesight India, under the auspices of Eyesight International in cooperation with local doctors, has been conducting eye clinics and cataract surgeries in India since 1989. He said cataract was the result of darkening of the eye’s lens that could be caused by the rubella virus, trauma to the eye and ageing. With surgery, impaired vision could be rectified by a lens implant, he added. He said he had held several eye check-up camps in Gujarat, Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra and Haryana with the support of rotary clubs of Canada and India. So far they had restored the eyesight or performed surgery on around 43,000 persons and treated thousands more for avoidable blindness. An eye camp was recently held in Gurdwara Parau at Fatehabad, near Goindwal Sahib, where surgeries were performed on people suffering from cataract and medicines distributed free of cost. Mr Jubbal said people in Surrey could come to India and participate in eye clinics and get their families to attend these as well. He said the organisation would spread the word in surrounding villages within a 10-mile radius and everyone, regardless of their age, ethnicity or religion, could attend these camps. He added that they had also been holding free eye clinics in British Columbia. As eye examination was no longer free under the medical services plan there, people were now showing interest in getting their eyesight checked and even make donations to the hospital in order to help bring sight to countless individuals.[/COLOR][/I] [url]http://www.tribuneindia.com/2006/20061223/aplus1.htm[/url] [/QUOTE]
