Happy Mother’s Day!! 

Motherhood is priced
Of God, at price no man may dare
To lessen or misunderstand.
~Helen Hunt Jackson

Mother is the first person who falls in love with us even before we land on this Earth! Does it matter how we look? how we smell? Or how smart we may be? Definitely Not!

She is one person who puts up with all our nakhras (tantrums).  She is there by our side from our “peeing in pants phase” to the nights when we “weep with broken hearts”. She mends us, loves us, pampers us, and defends us. But only God can save us when she gets angry! She will either kill us with her silence or will eat our ears off with her reprimanding. She can be soft like a barfi (Indian sweetmeat), all mushy mushy with sweet whispers or a hard nut to crack if it’s for our well-being. BUT above all this overdose of dramas, she is the constant flow of gentle care and silent strength in our lives.


Even with flour on her forehead and hours in the kitchen, she is and will always be the prettiest lady in our lives! 

     

At Sense International India, also known as Sense India, we witness every day the intense dedication of mothers of deafblind children. They work hard with our educators and trainers to cater to every need of their child - to make them self reliant. For all the effort they put in, their reward is the little progress that their child makes. They are a true inspiration for us to work tirelessly towards the future of deafblind children. They are true epitomes of unconditional love exhibited in action, every single day they fight along with their children to break the limitations of disability. 

Alisha’s mother Sahila Khatun says, “I wish I had known in the beginning that deafblindness didn't mean the end of the world for my child. With the help and tireless intervention of Sense India, after 10 years, when my daughter Alisha spoke for the very first time, I  started crying as it was nothing less than a miracle for us. I gathered our neighbors to make them hear Alisha’s voice. My only dream is to get admission for Alisha in a mainstream school very soon.”

We can go on and on about how awesome these loving mothers are but words fail us. So this Mother’s day, Sense India family extends their heartfelt gratitude and warm wishes to every mother out there who supports the cause of deafblindness.
