 Revallamma
(Andhra Pradesh)
One of the earliest cases when our NGO was in a formative nascent stage,
Revallamma was a 35 year old lady who was
picked up from Mumbai streets and brought to Shraddha Rehabilitation
Foundation. She was laughing, muttering to herself
and displayed classic symptoms of mental illness. Within six short weeks
of nursing and psychiatric care and treatment, she
improved radically and informed the doctors, the name of her native
village, which was about 200 kilometers away from
Hyderabad in Andhra Pradesh. Drs. Bharat and Smitha themselves escorted
her back home and the picture herein shows a
happy reunion with her mother, after 4 long years of separation and
despair. All the people in the village gathered and were
extremely happy at Revallamma's return.

Asha
(Mumbai)
Asha was found
wandering around the streets of Mumbai.
When she was brought by Shraddha’s team from the streets,
she was not a pretty sight to behold. The tight petticoat she was
wearing had cut into her flesh. She had lice, ulcers, bruises and
festering wounds on her body. Suffering from Schizophrenia, she
truly believed she was a boy and behaved as one. After many months
of treatment, she began responding and getting better. As she
began coming back to normal psychiatrically, expert questioning
and probing by Shraddha’s trained staff, led to her family
being traced, which led to a extremely happy reunion. Asha is
quite well today, and still comes to the Foundation occasionally
for maintenance therapy.

Rajeev
(Bihar)
Picked up by SRF’s workers, Rajeev was
successfully treated and happily reunited with his parents in
Bihar. Rajeev’s father came down to pick him up upon hearing
from Shraddha. Rajeev had been given up for dead by his family,
after all efforts to trace him had failed over
months.
