Dateline-Bangladesh, India
A two and a half year old girl is going hungry.
Her dad abandoned her and her mother 18 months ago.
A two and a half year old girl is going hungry.
Her dad abandoned her and her mother 18 months ago.
In India, abandoned moms and widows
are on the lowest rung of the poverty ladder
or food chain...if you will
starving moms means hungry children
This mother is so desperate,
she put an ad in a newspaper
to auction off one of her eyes
for money to feed her daughter
...an eye for an...
Is this what we have come to?
A mother would do anything to feed her children
but is it really that difficult to get food?
and if it is, how can that be?
The mother said that she doesn't think twice about
auctioning her eye
she said something like what is an eye
to me if my daughter is hungry?
Wow
What priorities.
Reuters interviewed the mother.
She told them that she hasn't had any takers yet.
Maybe the readers thought it a joke.
I pray that no one takes her up on it,
but that CARE or the Red Cross
help her feed her daughter.

just yesterday the us senate approved $81 billion for wars in iraq and afghanistan in a spending bill that would push the total cost of combat and over $300 billion.
imagine how many people we could feed instead of kill.
thank you for exposing Truth.
