In Kabul, however, there are two clinics that provide medical care to poor Afghans. Aner Gul has received a free cataract operation. He tells us here:
My name is Anar Gul and we live in Kabul. I have two sons and two daughters, who are all married. One of my sons was an army officer but died in the service three years ago. Now I live with his children and his widow.
I have to work to feed my fatherless grandchildren.
I have a grocery store close to our house and my daily income is 200 to 300 afghani (equivalent to 16-25 DKK). With this small income, I provide food for my family.
For a long time I had vision problems and the doctors had told me I needed cataract surgery, but I couldn't afford it.
Our whole family came to the charity clinic in Kabul for treatment. I brought my grandson to the clinic and saw that you could get cataract surgery for free.
I made an appointment to have my vision checked. When the friendly doctor at the clinic examined my eye, he said to me: "Your eye is ready for surgery! Why haven't you had it operated yet?" I told him about my poverty and the kind doctor operated on me the same day and saved me from going blind.
I am very grateful to God for giving us pure people who will always serve us. I also give thanks for those who donate to this clinic and I pray that you all will be blessed, concludes Aner Gul.
Amidst turbulence and uncertainty, clinics provide medical care to the vulnerable and poor in Kabul. You can lend a helping hand to the poor and vulnerable in Kabul so they can receive medical care. It costs an average of $540 to provide medicine and medical care to 15 people.
Also, please pray for Afghanistan, its people and the underground church.
