The Dignified Poor

My Scholarship entry - A 'place' I have visited

A doctor at an AIDS clinic takes a moment to try to capture a breeze after power to the building cuts out again. The dirty windows and back street location belies the dedication, care and love the staff exhibit to their patients - patients who are all extremely poor, marginalised, and ridiculed. In this clinic the patients are treated like humans, giving them a dignity and a sense of hope they would otherwise never have seen.
