Dear Mother,

How are you?  I hope you are good there. I am fine here and doing good. Today while I pass by the road and I saw a child who met with an accident in front of my eyes and everyone gathered around him and no one was helping him to get up all of them were taking photos and selfie with him and posting it on the social media.  He was struggling to get up then suddenly I went and helped him to get up and I took him to the hospital and He was fine with minimal injuries. But how come a people can do this just staring at an accident victim and none of them were serious. If this keeps on going on we people will lose our humanity. I just want to share this with you mom. Love you mom.

Yours lovingly,
Kalpana/Kiran Shah
