Mutiple Sclerosis Man Works To Bring Hope To The Destitute Street Children
A Former nurse who was struck with a debilitating disease has told how his illness has spurred him on to help change childrenÂ’s lives in India
(PRWEB) June 11, 2005
James Thomas of Ariel Street, Ashington enjoying caring for people with mental health problems as part of his 15year career in the nursing profession, when he suddenly found himself the patient. He was then delivered the devastating blow that he has Multiple Sclerosis and would have to give up his career. Mr Thomas, who was diagnosed three years ago and is now disabled.
I started looking at charities on the United Nations web site and came across one that helps street children in India which gives the children a new life and start in there black Tunnel of situations in life. “Now I’m changing childrens lives from one of despair and poverty to one of hope.”
The 43-year-old has started to come up with ideas to help the destitute children after becoming a fundraiser and now rose to a position of international Fundraiser for Gwalior ChildrenÂ’s Hospital Charity. Mr Thomas is determined to help build an orphanage which phase one should be ready in November which I would love to visit sponsorship willing. Mr Thomas is raising money for the orphanage which will include a rehabilitation and vocational centre with physiotherapy facilities
Having MS is very difficult and comes as a huge blow but there are always people worse off than you who need your help.
Anyone interested in helping the appeal can contact Mr Thomas all help however small is graciously appreciated.
