Seven-year-old Priyala rested on her bed so motionless you would think she was dead. A fever, cough and stomach pains had taken over her body. Her mother, Marala, hated to stand idly by, not willing to give up her daughter.
Priyala had attended the local Bridge of Hope center, and Marala knew, from everything her precious daughter had told her, that the staff were people who prayed. So she asked them to pray for her daughter. When they came to her home at the end of the day, Priyala’s father, Ganesh, turned them away, telling them he did not believe in any gods; he only believed in his forefather’s spirit. The staff asked Ganesh to at least take his daughter to the hospital.
When they left, Ganesh turned on his wife and beat her for asking them to come and pray. All this time, Marala cared for Priyala and her younger sister by working in the fields. Ganesh also worked in the fields and earned enough to care for his family, but instead of using the money to care for them, he spent it all on alcohol and gambling.
Priyala’s condition worsened over the next month. Ganesh never took her to a hospital, and now their daughter could not even open her eyes.
