She got married when she was just 8 years old, lost her first child as a young mother, learnt to knit and sew in Kalimpong where she waited for several years for her husband to return from Lhasa, and at age 83 she was featured on BBC for making her first income selling dhaka baby blankets on Aji’s. Today she lives a happy and fulfilling life as a mother to 3 children, grandma to 6 grandchildren and great grandma to 3 great grandchildren!
