Dear Jade,
On behalf of Nimasha Madhuanthi, I'd like to thank
you. She was smiling and so happy when she received
your stuffed animal. She told me about how she ran
from the waves and was able to escape the Tsunami. She
also told me about how difficult it was at the camps
where they stayed for a very long time. Her mother
told me that she nearly died from getting sick with
Denghe (a virus you get from mosquitoes) which she got
when she was in the camp. She escaped one more time...
and now she is happy and playing all the time. Her
family is now staying in rented shack, and will have
to find a home soon. She hopes to some day have a home
again. She wanted me to tell you that she was born on
the 3rd of June in 2002. She is really so happy to
receive your gift.
Thanks so much,
Subha (Nimasha's Friend)

receive your gifts.
Again thank you so much for your support.
