During the Chinese New Year, members from our med. assn. (TIMA) in four countries, including the
They stayed there in
All the patients who received treatment, (truly benefited a lot from the free clinic)
Those with more serious conditions were referred to other hospitals for further medical treatment.
There were also those who received treatment on site---
These were cataract patients who had lived in darkness for many years.
However, with the help of our volunteer doctors from the
Moreover, during the free clinic this time, (our volunteers also put up posters)
(about Tzu Chi's Four Missions) Myodaw Hosptial, where the free clinic was held especially set aside space for us (to do this)
So, our volunteers put up posters that introduced Tzu Chi's Four Missions
There were many local volunteers who could speak the local language and also were knowledgeable about Tzu Chi and its spirit.
So, they served docents to share Tzu Chi's work with others.
One of them was a gentleman from
He was moved by the work of Tzu Chi volunteers.
So, after learning more about Tzu Chi, he came to know the story behind every photo like the back of his hand and could explain them very well.
So, when providing medical services, we can also carry out our cultural mission at the same time.
There are many touching stories form the free clinic o share.
I'm sure everyone still remembers.
Mg Myo Wai Kyaw
Not long after Cyclone Nargis hit in May he accidentally knocked over an oil lamp.
(while studying one night)
So, he suffered severe burns on his face and shoulders.
(Learning about his conditions) our doctors transferred him to a better equipped hospital in
After receiving treatment, he was discharged from the hospital.
However, (for a better recovery) he still has to wear a tight elastic fabric mask.
Our doctors in
He followed our doctors' directions very carefully and patiently endured all the discomfort.
Despite
This time when Supt. Chien went to
There was another boy, Htet Wai Lin, who is just eight this year.
When he was just three months old, he ran a fever and after receiving an injection.
(he developed muscle weakness in his legs)
(and was still unable to stand at the age of 3)
From that moment onwards, doctors said tat he would be unable to stand or walk like everyone else
However, he expressed a very strong wish to go to school.
So, his mother carried him on her back to school every day
It's at least half an hour's walk from his home to his school.
With local road conditions being the way they are, many have to make it over streams by raft.
So, his mother carried him on her back to school every day.
When our volunteers first spoke to him---
We asked him, "What would you like to do'
"When you grow up?"
He said, "I hope I can walk"
"If I can't walk"
"I hope you can give me a horse"
"so that I can ride the horse to school"
"so that my mom won't be so tired"
"from having to carry me every day"
It was heartrending to hear
Tzu Chi volunteers were very moved by this child's resolve to receive an education and also by his mother's love for him.
So, upon taking on his case our volunteers immediately contacted our TIMA member in
When he saw this child---
This child asked:
"Please, can you heal my legs"
"so that I can walk"
See, how heartrending this child's heartfelt plea was
See, in a poverty-stricken place such as this all that this child asks is that he can walk again.
He doesn't ask for much.
So, I'm truly very grateful---
I'm very grateful to Dr. Htin Myat for being so committed to healing the boy's legs and for his confidence in this giving the boy a glimmer of hope for the future
He truly is the boy's savior in life.
The boy was brought to a stat-run hospital
The hospital superintendent and the doctors there were determined to help this boy stand again
The boy has undergone four operations since last November.
From this, we can see how much the boy wants to walk again, given the pain he has had to endure. (All he wants is to be able to walk again)
He wished Grand-master good health. He asked Grand-master to help him so that he can walk soon
He thanks Grand-master for helping him and if he can walk, some day, he's going to see Grand-master
In the footage we see that this child is now undergoing physical rehabilitation
We see how he is now using a walker to gradually take some steps.
Uncle, Amitabha
Amitabha
Say Amitabha to everyone
Amitabha, everyone
Speak kind words, think good thoughts and do good deeds
See, I am sure that this boy will also become a seed of love in
May this boy be able to stand up and walk to school with his own two feet and further become someone who can benefit others when he grows up
This is what we earnestly hope for
I'm very grateful for this three-day free clinic that treated over 1,700 people who are now able to recover form their conditions
I am also vey grateful to our TIMA members from five countries for giving of their love to care for those in need
In fact, this
(set up by a non-profit organization, USDA)
On a signboard, it says that doctor consultations and medication are free.
(and everyone is eligible)
From that, we can see that this is a hospital based on Great Love)
Besides this one in downtown Yangon USDA also set up 26 other free clinics in the outskirts of
Indeed, all around the world, there are truly many caring doctors who are serving with love
Seeing that, I am truly very grateful
I am grateful to all the doctors who serve without asking anything in return
Our doctors made use of their CNY holidays to go there to serve while also bringing together the local doctors to work together in reaching out to help those who are in need of help
This is in the hope that the medical culture of humanity can become even more widespread there in
I sincerely wish the children in

緬甸義診聚仁醫
烈燄紋身遇貴人
復健助行圓心願
編織美善人間道
集合五個國家的慈濟人醫會醫師，在過年期間，來到緬甸參加當地醫院舉辦的義診活動，三天診療超過一千七百人次，其中有一百多位白內障病患，透過手術重見光明。證嚴上人感恩大醫王付出無所求，成為所有病患生命中的貴人。
慈濟人醫會年節期間來到緬甸義診，三天就診治超過一千七百人次，除了醫療救拔病苦，診間外牆上照片背後蘊含的醫病情，更感動了現場所有民眾，剛動完白內障手術的杜老太太，重見光明的這一刻，就發願認養兩個竹筒，要累積愛心。
醫療團隊也到個案家中往診，十四歲的密威喬，不畏緬甸悶熱的天氣，帶著台灣送來的燒傷彈性面罩，現在恢復狀況良好；還有八歲的特威林，重新站起來後最大的目標，就是努力讀書，將來能成為幫助人的慈濟人。
慈濟志工全年無休，愛心腳步不停歇，不說犧牲，全是誠心的奉獻，看到病患解除病痛後，展露的笑容，一切都是值得的。
