Her only son had heart ailment and passed away a few months ago. To make ends meet, the old lady now works.
Every evening, Shila comes from Pali Koltaka to sell chips. When asked
if she has a problem in travelling, she weakly smiled and says, "No, the
bus gets me here and my health is not that bad".
Circumstances could have easily forced her to beg but her dignity and respect is everything for her. She is determined to work until the end of her life, rather than to beg on a street.
She chose to solve her problems on her own, though they say, God help those who helped themselves but I say God helps those that are helpless.
Because she prefered to make her own living, many people offered to help without making her feel dependent on anyone. Some are also helping her to build a kiosk...
