... to find this man and his story utterly inspirational?

Please read here. It is quite long, but the title will intrigue you - The Indian sanitary pad revolutionary

I would probably re-name it "Necessity is the mother of invention"

There's a thread in feminism about this too.
Wonderful story.

I remember reading about him a few years ago.

What an amazing story. Thanks for sharing.

Wonderful man, great story!

Wow, this is an amazing man and a great story. I had no idea this problem even existed.

Agree, brilliant man, excellent story

YY to honorary knighthood. Unless there's a MN knighthood he might qualify for. Amazing story.

What an amazing man.

There are Nobel prizes for heathcare, right? Must be a catagory somewhere? Amazing man. I'd put him close to the man who invented the polio vaccine but didn't want to make a profit. He turned down potential billions to save so many more lives.

I just read this half an hour ago, and when I saw your thread title I knew it was going to be about this!

It is an amazing story, he seems very selfless. Glad his wife returned to him as well! We do have so much in the west that other communities don't have, it's good to remember that sometimes I think. Humbling.

I knew it was going to be this story as soon as I saw the thread title.

What a fantastic, dedicated man and an inspirational, humbling story.

I love, this, thank you for sharing!
