Getting Ready for School


My parents recently visited New Delhi and brought Meher some new clothes from her friends at Hough Street School in Barrington. She and everyone at Project Why were very excited to see them!


Here she is modeling a dress that students at Hough Street School sent to Delhi for her.











They also went to see Dr. Khazanchi to talk about the last operation on Meher's
hands.


Meher is studying hard as she recently passed her entrance exam to go to boarding school.
