Editor;

I just thought you like to know I read your article on Sarocha Chompoo <https://www.pattayamail.com/875/news.shtml#hd11> and have made contact with her and her father. At that time she was very close to dying of poor health with no future. Her health is now very good and she passed school this year for her first time in her life.

I have her living with a friend of hers so now she has a real family where it is safe to sleep, and she gets food, schooling and medicine. She is a very happy young lady with a future thanks to Pattaya Mail taking the time to write about her.
