Waren er nog maar mensen zoals Princes Diana die zoveel goeds heeft gedaan in de hele wereld.

Shocking to learn that only in 2008 this resolution was read to the survivors.<br />Yes, after having lived and worked for so many years in Indonesia and having delivered many times the money for the Rotary Club from our city of Dublin, together with husband Pieter we both are very passionate about the cause.<br />Never sure with blog situations, I came home from Atlanta to find no pictures and no photos in my blog. Had to restart my PC and there they showed up again in IE, just like they did already in Google Chrome. I've added some links to my blog as well, just in case more people have the same problems as you encountered.<br />Hugs,<br />MarietteMariette VandenMunckhof-Vedderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16877699174880945452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1974466215163623524.post-50899520889084924682014-03-18T23:31:01.041-04:002014-03-18T23:31:01.041-04:00Dearest Dimi,

Since Princess Diana's visit to the hospital in Jakarta, Indonesia in 1989, who else has ever drawn media attention to Leprosy sufferers? Not a single public figure ever.
