Amma has sent thousands of blankets to Kashmir. Delayed in the same traffic jam that stopped our medical vehicles, they have just arrived as the weather is turning colder. District Magistrate Shah Faesal is directing us to more remote villages where people have received no aid at all. jk-blanket3 We pass large areas around Lake Wullar were crops have been severely damaged. After driving several kilometers along the top of a canal (I can’t really call it a road), we reached Zurimanz as the sun was setting. jk-blanket1 We feared a chaotic rush in the dark, but our local helpers were extremely organized with lists of the most needy families. jk-blanket2 jk-blanket4 Two blankets do not begin to erase the losses these people have faced, but tonight 163 families feel the touch of Amma’s infinite compassion.
