It is possible for midday meal scheme to improve

My son fell sick on his first birthday and we were rather disappointed since he was in no mood to play with the children who had been invited home. Even his pictures taken on the occasion clearly showed the discomfort he was experiencing. This was the beginning of an infection in his alimentary canal that went undetected for a few months. He became a cranky child, totally disinterested in normal activities. The infection grew out of control and one night he had to be hospitalised. After four days in hospital and a month of recuperation, he was back to being his joyful self. This was our first-hand experience of what ill health can do to a child.
