Fairytale comes to life...

Tuesday, 9 December 2008

In what appears to be a straight out of a fairytale or fable, Ganesh's cousin's brother's son today appeared after 6 years missing! In an incredible turn of events, the boy everyone thought was dead is very much alive... And while it's not quite amnesia, it's pretty close. The boy went missing from his family home at the tender age of 15. Somehow he ended up in India working for a corrupt man who paid him nothing and wouldn't let him leave. The working conditions were appalling and he ended up being severely injured by metal from a passing truck... This left him in hospital recovering for almost 3 years... and now somehow he's made his triumphant return to his family in Nepal. The details are a bit sketchy, but this is even better than 'the boy under the tree' - the famous Nepalese boy who had been sitting under a tree in a prayer like meditative state for 6 months without food or water... (Ok, that one turned out to be a hoax - but this is very much a reality!)...
