OM medical team provide succor to tsunami survivors

New Delhi – A team of medical professionals, sponsored by Operation Mobilization, is reaching out to the tsunami victims in India by offering both medical and spiritual help.

According to OM's Peter Dance, "The team is awed by the amount of devastation from the disaster as entire neighborhoods are completely gone and the people simply 'hang out' on their property – unable to believe they've lost everything."

The team, coupled with OM national workers, and Indian medical staff, has set up a medical clinic in one area, but according to Dance, "What they need most is psychological care. Some make up symptoms just so they can talk to us. They need our attention – not our medications."
