WHY A GERMAN NATIONAL FELL IN LOVE WITH PAKISTAN !!?

She left her family, boyfriend, German nationality and everything she had for our country, Pakistan and migrated to Pakistan, and never went back. 
Dr. Ruth Katherina Martha Pfau was the name of a saintly woman who left Germany in 1950s and dedicated 55 years of her life fighting leprosy in Pakistan.
 It was due to her that in 1996, Pakistan was declared by World Health Organization (WHO) to have controlled leprosy, one of the first countries in Asia to achieve this goal. 
Leaving her own parents, siblings, love of life and people/nationality for our country, there is no way that we can pay her debts and this morning, she passed away at the age of 87. 
Thank you #RuthPfau for everything. Just everything that you've done for our people, country and making Pakistan, one of the first Asian countries to be leprosy free!
Zindabad.
