Dear Friends in Heart Care Foundation

Season’s Greetings!!

We are entering a New Year after a very anxious and stressful last year. While all of us would like to forget 2020 for the pandemic and the related hardship we had to go through, we as a community should not forget the lessons learnt both as a community and as an individual. As a society we learned to respect each other and take care of their needs during the crisis. As a person we have inculcated lot of discipline in terms of personal hygiene and the need to take care of our health. Every crisis teaches us several lessons which if we take it forward in our life can give us the dividends in long term.

At the Foundation, the first quarter of last year was eventful with the medical camps in connection with our project Hridayapoorvam- Alangad. Since then we have held online Awareness sessions and the World Heart Day in association with Lions District. Further, we also brought out a Special issue on COVID 19. We hope to complete the project at Alangad once the situation is conducive for the same.

The world is awaiting anxiously for the vaccine which are in the final stages of trial. As planned at the Government level let the front line health warriors get the vaccines, since, they are the most vulnerable people. I urge all my friends to show the magnanimity and maturity until the vaccine is available and keep up the strict vigil to keep the virus away.

Once again the Foundation salute the front line warriors for their hard work and courage in treating the people not withstanding the huge risk and sacrifice for them and their families.

Sincerely,

Dr. Jose Chacko Periappuram
Chairman HCF
