Dear Readers,
The contents of this webpage will take you into the world of people who live apart from us. They are stigmatised by the most serious diseases - leprosy and tuberculosis.
Hopelessness and leading the life of an outcast are their reality. However, these people also dream of a happier and fulfilled life.
Please try to follow my thoughts and the ways that I have gone to find these people, to get into touch with them consciously and hold out a hand in order to lead them out of their misery and desperation.
The scientific aspects of leprosy and tuberculosis are a basis for me as a medical doctor to comprehend the complex problems of the illness. They round off my personal experiences in view of the ill human being.
