We note this heart warming tale that demonstrates the highest manifestations of motherhood. Amid all the other trouble we behold every day on the planet, this should help renew our hopes for the human race.

garbage dump being searched for useful items

Wright notes, "The family was living amongst the trash in a three-walled shack with no running water, no toilet and no electricity. To survive, they'd dig through the garbage to find and sell plastic, glass and metal. Their youngest child was extremely sick and though Sang Ly had taken him to countless western doctors, nothing had helped. Finally, she got the notion into her head that she needed to take him back to her childhood province to see the local Healer."
