This is a deleted scene from the day I gave out over fifty mosquito nets in a rural village in Bangladesh.

A lot of parents showed up with their kids and it was very disheartening to see how many kids with mosquito bites. Even if they don't (thankfully) contract malaria, mosquito bites are an easy way to get sick from a variety of diseases.

  • This was my grandmother's village. She sent the word out that her grandson wanted to give away mosquito nets to needy villagers.

    This experience shaped how I did later distributions. Because, some (not all) were not fully honest. Some came even though they had satellite TVs in their homes. Others came to take the nets to sell to buy other stuff.

    This was a minority though - but still - it made me wiser for subsequent distributions.

  • when you went into these villages, were you immediately seen as an outsider that possibly had gifts for them? how did you announce your arrival?

  • hehe,

    Wasn't sure if he was really gonna make it out the gate with it . .

    Darling!
