Welcome!

Greetings!

I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.
I have a dream today!"- Martin Luther King.

That was the famous soul "scorching" speech by Martin Luther King on the 28th of August, 1963. 
More than 50 years on, and people still judge by colour, caste, creed and sadly by disease. 
The purpose here. Today . is more for the Disease part. Not all disease ( Of course I do not intend to demean other diseases or equally relevant issues) but I am here specifically for Hansen's disease or what you call Leprosy.
You must be wondering -
Who am I?
Is this another of those boring techno-medical blogs?
A kind of health tips blog?
What is going on here?

Who am I? Well I am a dreamer ...with a Dream .

 I may be a govt official, a doctor, a well wisher, preacher..Why I might be just the girl next door , some one like Sapna who has a dream too. But we will come back to Sapna later.
This is not a health blog in the real sense , but is related to a Public health issue. An issue, a topic, a disease that is not spoken about much. We will come to that again later .
What is going on here - Many things. Many dreams are to be shared here. Dreams you didn't know you existed probably. Nightmares that people do not speak about. 
Well this is just the introduction.
This is just the beginning ...of a dream . Which we will all fulfill together. 
More on my next .
I assure you - the tone will be casual. stories straight from the heart. Facts - you will figure them out

With love
Sweet dreams 
The Dreamer
