Fazlul Haque was a poor farmer. He had a small piece of land and earned his livelihood by cultivating on that land.

His only child is his daughter Mita, who was born with a congenital defect on his lip medically called " Cleft lip" or incised lip. The defect gave her   an ugly look.  Even her friends from the same neighborhood were reluctant to play with her because of her ugly appearance.
 

 Once one of Fazlul Haque,s neighbors told him that such defect can be cured through surgery in Dhaka and   advised him to go to Dhaka for better treatment.  Fazlul made up his mind and went to Dhaka along with his daughter Mita. He saw a doctor at a private clinic. The doctor told him that it can be cured through surgery and it would cost him TK/- 15000.  Upon hearing the huge cost of surgery he became disappointed and returned home in despair. He was at the end of tethers with no reckon of life. Since then Fazlul Haque was passing his days with a ray of hope.

One day he came to know from a medicine shop owner that there is a boat hospital somewhere where they are correcting this type of defect in gratis. He collected the mobile number of the boat hospital named Jibon-Tari from a person in his neighborhood whose son had club foot surgery on that boat hospital.  He got the location of Jibon-Tari, which was located at Chamrarghat of Kisoregonj district.  Fazlul haque became upset again because it is so far, almost 500 kilometers from the place where he lived. Determined to try again fir his daughter, one morning he started his journey with his daughter for Chamrarghat. He arrived at Chamrarghat next day early morning. He collected a yellow ticket by standing up in a long queue and saw the doctor. The on duty doctor of JT examined Mita and informed her father that she could be cured through surgery, which would cost him only Tk.500. His joy knew no bounds. After some tests he was given a date to come again. The surgery was performed and stitches were removed after a week. Fazlul Haque was overjoyed when he saw the changed face of his beloved daughter. His daughter Mita turned a new life, the previous ugliness had disappeared. A large drop of tears rolls downs his cheeks.  He raised his both hands and prayed to the God:" May these people find a place in the heaven.

Kaosar did not become blind overnight. His vision started deteriorating when he was two years old. As he was very small, nobody could detect it at an earlier stage. At the beginning his father Babul Mia did not give much attention to it until Kaosar became completely blind in both eyes. A wave of guilty feelings ran through him whenever he saw his son.

Babul Mia took his son to an eye surgeon in the nearest district town. His disease was diagnosed as Congenital cataract and the doctor told him that he has to take his son to Dhaka for   cataract surgery with lens implantation on both eyes. Eye surgeon also told him that no eye surgeon in a district town has the expertise to perform cataract surgery on such a small boy. Babul Miah also came to know from the surgeon that the surgery would cost him around TK. 20000 (Twenty thousand) in Dhaka. Upon hearing this, the hell broke loose on him .He returned home feeling more guilty, frustrated and disappointed.

Suddenly fate smiled on him and to his utter surprise he got the opportunity to get his son cured without any money.  One day he went to the village market and one leaflet pasted on a building of the market drew his attention. It was leaflet of "Jibon-Tari" about its activities. Babul Miah came to know from the leaflet that cataract surgery is being performed there free of cost. Next morning Babul Miah along with his ailing son Kaosar went to the boat hospital "Jibon-Tari" anchored at Chamaraghat. He  got a pink  ticket queuing up in the registration area and entered the  eye consultation room with his son Kaosar. The Eye doctor examined his son Kaosar and selected him for surgery.

Babul miah is a happy man. The vision of his beloved son Kaosar has been was restored. Babul Miah expressed his gratefulness to the people of "Jibon-Tari" which gave his son a new life.      

Reshmoti is a fourteen years old girl. She was born with cleft lip and clubfoot in her left leg. She was frustrated   with her ugly facial look as well as her physical deformity. From her childhood, neither she could speak without hesitation nor she could walk and play like the other girls in her neighborhood. She has brought misery of social stigmatization silently during these fourteen years.
 

Her father Mr. Jamaluddin is a poor farmer living in Chuadanga. He always had a great anxiety for his daughter. He met a few doctors at Chuadanga for treatment of her beloved daughter.  All of them told him the  same thing – “ Yes, it can be cured through an expensive surgery in Dhaka “.  Let alone spending a huge amount of money for her treatment, he could not even afford to go to Dhaka. So, he thought that it is an inevitable consequence and he cannot do anything for his beloved daughter.

Once Mr. Jamaluddin was told by a health worker of IMCHC that such kind of deformity are treated at Impact’s Chuadanga hospital free of cost. After a week he went to IMCHC along with his daughter Reshmoti. The on duty doctor informed her father that her leg and lip could be cured through two different surgeries. The first surgery can be done on her leg and then after two weeks plastic surgery can be done for her lip deformity. The cost for each surgery will be around TK.1000, which is just a nominal fee. Jamaluddin agreed and doctor gave a date for her leg surgery.
 

Reshmoti was admitted at IMCHC on given date,   and operation was done successfully on her left leg.  After six months of surgery, she could walk and move normally. This surgery relieved her family of some anxieties. Within six months of surgery on her leg, the second surgery was done on her lip by a specialist plastic surgeon from Dhaka. Stitches were removed seven days after surgery. Jamaluddin could not believe his eyes. The ugly appearance of Resmoti has disappeared and she turned a new leaf.
 

Now Reshmoti can move around without any shyness.  Jamaluddin gets relief when he thinks of Reshmoti ‘s bright future. The family of Reshmoti is very grateful to IMCHC.
