Light after Dark - Manjunath's Story



Ooh! Just wanted to praise Narayana Nethralaya for saving the day again!

Yes, Indeed it is one of the best eye hospitals that provides the best treatments to its patients. I raised this topic because just now I read an article in Bangalore Mirror that a boy named Manjunath G lost his precious eye sight after he waited eagerly watching a gas balloon come down which landed up in a huge crash and the helium cylinder exploded making the life of Manjunath dark forever.

Though Victoria hospital had confirmed that he couldn't see anymore, his father who had faith in God and hope in son's future decided to put him to Narayana Nethralaya which proved them that they are the mother of all the  hospitals. Dr. Himanshu P Matalia, who was able to remove the stones that was stuck in Manjunath's eye, along with  his other team mates told that the boy would recover soon. Manjunath who now has a hope towards new life and is blessed with new life and is in fact given a second chance to lead a normal life is happy that he could play with his friends.

It is indeed a great achievement of the doctors not only in Narayana Nethralaya but all the others who are present in the Health city and work in Narayana Hospitals. Recently Dr. Devi Prasad Shetty, founder of Narayana Hrudayalaya in 2001 was awarded with Padma Bhushan award for his work recognised in the field of Medicine.

Any disease is treated in the Health city and the facilities and staff are very advanced and convincing. The advantage of these hospitals are that they have everything within their area and one need not go out for various checkups. Unlike other hospitals, the staff are very caring and nursing and do their duty with all their determination and love. The homely atmosphere and the clean environment is probably the main attraction for the patients from various countries.

One important fact that my father told me about the hospital was that we couldn't smell the phenol and syringe smell which is a common thing in almost all the hospitals! How fascinating!
Glad that we have such an hi-fie hospital in our country where even the poorest of poorest can afford!
AM A PROUD INDIAN!! LET THE TRICOLOR FLY HIGH IN THE SKY :)
