When the massive earthquake struck on April 25, 2015, Ranju was outside working in the vegetable garden and luckily her son was with her. Suddenly, right in front of her eyes, her house collapsed. Ranju cannot imagine what would have happened if she was inside the house. Fortunately, because it was mid-day, everyone including her husband and mother-in-law were working outside, and no one was hurt. However, everything that the family owned was gone with the house.
Despite the tragedy, it is evident that Ranju and her family have not given up; they are determined to normalize their life. From what they could salvage from the remains of their house, Ranju and her family were quick to build a temporary shelter. They, however, had to build the temporary structure in the vegetable garden because they didn’t have enough land. Ranju wants to start planting vegetables again but wishes to receive vegetable seed/seedling support given that her stock was lost with the house.
