Just a note to share with our readers:  All is well.

Last night, the official notice came out about the death of Jayalalithaa, Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu, the Indian state where we are spending our visit.  It sounds like she was an incredible — and incredibly complex — woman whose death is shaking the local population.

We are so lucky in being here with our colleagues at Aravind, who are monitoring the situation for us both here and in Chennai for when we fly out. Presently, all our flights are on schedule, and we see no issues with our return flights and itineraries.

We want to share with you a lovely article written by the Grandfather of one of our students.  He is an esteemed statesman here in Chennai, and his article reflects the loss felt by the people of Tamil Nadu.

What an extraordinary trip this has been!

Warmly,

Dawn and Mike
