Colorful Clinic After the Storm

A mobile clinical camp set up in the cyclone-struck village of Barishal. Roofs were still damp after the disaster, their beams weakened by the collapse. Yet volunteers decorated the area with colorful flags. Crowds formed as soon as operations commenced at eight in the morning. No one chose to complain in the line; patience ruled. The first registration unit finished its work completely. Inside the van a small computer station collected data. Doctors promised to conclude the day with a full report on each case. In severe situations they had to confront patients' fears directly. The local committee insisted they must conserve the riverbank. They will consider proposing a green embankment. In the food queue rural consumers picked healthy menus. A radio crew offered live coverage of the entire day. Children turned memories of the storm into vivid creations. Artist Sonia added detailed notes beside every painting. The ambulance team delivered emergency delivery kits to expectant mothers. A UN diplomat arrived to review the situation. He said aid would increase quickly according to the prior document. Volunteers opened the donation box and shared accounts with everyone. When night fell they sat together to plan for the next day.
