Disability Is Not an Obstacle

Many days ago there were two house surgeons who approached me to learn work. One of them was lame. The other always followed the disabled and helped him. They were very good friends.

After some days, I made them sit with me for a few minutes and spoke with them. I asked them whether it was possible for them to live together after completion of their course or after their marriage. I told them not to depend on one another and that nobody would come to their help later, when each had to live their own life. Hence it was advisable for them to learn independently. I then narrated to them the life story of Helen Keller, Beethoven and likes. (One of the boys is now leading veneriologist and AIDS specialist)

Helen Adams Keller was an American author, political activist, and lecturer. She was the first deafblind person to earn a bachelor of arts degree. Born: June 27, 1880, Tuscumbia, Alabama, United States Died: June 1, 1968, Easton, Connecticut, United States Movies: The Miracle Worker, Helen Keller in Her Story Awards: Presidential Medal of Freedom Parents: Arthur H. Keller, Kate Adams Keller

Once, a patient came to me with diabetes. His leg had to be amputated. He was in deep depression. He was not recovering. I counseled him and told him the story of „Sudha‟. Sudha Chandran is a great dancer. Hel leg was removed. She was not depressed; she did not get scared of life. With the help of Jaipur foot, with all pain, she practiced dance and became a great dancer.

Based upon her life, Sri Ramoji Rao of “Eenadu”, made the cinema „Mayuri‟. It is advisable that all the orthopedic patients and doctors should see the move.

Sudha Chandran is an accomplished Bharatanatyam dancer, Indian film and television actress, who turned to great dancer and actor following the loss of a leg in an accident in May 1981 near Trichy, Tamil Nadu.

There is one MBBS friend of mine, whose legs were afflicted with polio. With great deal of patience and gusto, she worked hard and now a leading gynecologist. She settled in Ongole. Such people take life as a challenge to overcome the difficulties and achieve their goals.

There are however people who are quite opposite to this. They are dispirited, disappointed and are a nightmare to the attending doctors. There are even doctors who rush to the doctors with fear of heart attack or some imaginary problem. A few doctor friends of mine have suffered from cancer. Still with great courage and determination they faced the troubles, overcame the difficulties and continued their profession while undergoing the treatment.

Think of the Nawad of Pataudi, a great cricketer of yesteryears. He lost one of his eyes at the peak of his career. He faced many fast bowlers. He was the youngest captain for the Indian cricket team (may be the younger generation knows him better as the father of Saif Ali Khan). He used to do wonders in the field with that single eye.

These are some of the experiences I noted. We ourselves cannot experience all the things. We build our won house basing on the experiences of others also. If not, one‟s lifetime is not sufficient to learn with personal experience. We have to learn from them, the mental toughness, the zest for life, and the will to contribute to the community.

Hence we should read the autobiographies of great people and learn from their lives.
