Yushu Rescue – We’re Doing Our Best, Part 9
Life goes on.
May 1, Sunny
Today, following yesterday’s plan, six of us divided into two groups to visit families in need. While delivering the Buddha statues we’d brought from Lhasa, we also conducted on-site visits. In total, we paid a visit to 59 households. Moreover, through the Yushu County People’s Congress, we learned that there are more than 20 lonely and widowed elderly people living nearby. We’re planning to deliver supplies to them the day after tomorrow. Our initiative has received positive recognition and support from the County People’s Congress, who’ve pledged to provide us with the necessary assistance when distributing the supplies. Today, we also met a villager from Ganda Village. He told us that there are 248 households there, and the area has been severely affected by the disaster. The day after tomorrow, he’ll take us there to get a firsthand look at the situation and identify any ways we can help.
Today, Tibetan medicine continued its medical practice, treating a total of 156 patients. The two doctors were so busy that they didn't have time to eat until after 9 p.m.
Today, everyone is in a relatively cheerful mood. Over the past few days, as the site has been tidied up and disaster relief efforts have progressed, and during our visits to affected communities, we’ve noticed that the displaced people we’ve encountered today are much more upbeat compared to the gloomier atmosphere of previous days. Although today didn’t bring any particularly heartwarming or dramatic events, the bright and optimistic spirits of the survivors themselves were perhaps the greatest source of emotional resonance for us today. Let’s send our blessings to all lives affected and to Yushu itself.
At everyone’s unanimous request, we’ve collectively decided to suspend our outreach and medical treatment activities for one day. After such continuous hard work, we’re all truly exhausted. We plan to put up a Tibetan-language notice outside the medical tent announcing a day of rest, then head to the Princess Wencheng Temple to pay our respects and offer prayers. The day after tomorrow will once again be a day full of renewed energy and enthusiasm.
