Tibetans with bone disorder get free help in Beijing

"It's my first time in Beijing," Tashi Lhagyal said. "These people from the hospital, the foundation, they are all very kind to us patients. I will never forget that our country gave me the opportunity to let me stand up again, and I want to thank all those who have supported me along my tough journey."

The project aims to help patients in and around Lhasa, the regional capital. Cooperation agreements have been signed between the China Overseas-Educated Scholars Development Foundation, the Lhasa Municipal Health Commission and the Beijing Aid-Tibet Headquarters —a new step to expand the work in the Lhasa area in the near future.
