Epilepsy foundation organised a summer camp for all the
epileptic patients on Sunday 12th May 2013 at Sanjay Gandhi National Park.
The picnic started with pick up at 7 am from Surya Neuro Centre and the bus reached the national park at 815. The patients were then
served hot breakfast and snacks which was then followed by a wonderful Magic
show. The kids enjoyed the magic tricks in the natural environment surrounded by
lush greenery and wild habitat.
Everyone was then taken up to Kanheri Caves- the biggest and oldest Buddhist caves in Maharashtra. The trek to Kanheri caves was almost 20-30 minutes but the view from the top made up for the walk. The whole of Mumbai was visible from top of caves and all were shocked to see the beauty and peace that this place offered even though it was just in middle of city.
The tiring trek was then followed by a large and sumptuous buffet lunch which catered to the taste buds of all patients.
The patients were then taken to Gandhi Memorial Spot
where they all were entertained by playing Housie and other games while the
active and interested children were taken for rock climbing and rappelling all
under expert supervision team.
The patients by evening were then taken back to Surya Neuro Centre and this marked the end of the picnic.
Everyone had a wonderful time in this serene and peaceful place which even though within the city was away from all the hustle bustle of the city.
