SUBANG JAYA: The thought of losing her eyesight four years ago was a blow to Ran-jini Govindasamy, then 16 years old.  <\/p>\n\n<\/table>\n

"I was schooling and I had thought of committing suicide, but I am glad I did not do anything foolish because today I can see," she said. Ranjini, 20, had suffered from Stevens Johnson syndrome in 2003.<\/p>\n

The following year, the MIC National Youth Social Welfare Bureau raised more than RM30,000 for Ranjini. She underwent two surgeries at the Singapore National Eye Centre and she regained her eyesight. <\/p>\n

Ranjini is among several recipients of the MIC Welfare Fund, which was introduced in 2004 to help the needy. "I am very grateful to the doctors who treated me, the National Welfare Foundation, Bakti and the public who donated to the fund. "This means so much to my family and me," said the housewife at a press conference called by Puchong MIC in Puchong, near here, yesterday.<\/p>\n

Also present to express their gratitude were Kalithasan Elliappan, 17, and Darvinraaj Muniandy, 11. Kalithasan broke his leg when he fell off a moving bus, while Darvinraaj is a leukaemia survivor. Darvinraaj's father, Muniandy Rajan, 49, was thankful for the donations for his youngest son.<\/p>\n

MIC National Youth Social Welfare Bureau chairman T. Mohan attributed the success stories to the caring community. He said after media coverage on the three cases, the bureau collected more than RM160,000. <\/p><\/div>\n
