“ My maternal uncle, my late beloved mother’s elder brother and sister
suffered from Tuberculosis. My youngest brother is getting treatment for the
same. Out of 7 my 4 family members have suffered from this disease. I request
you to ask government to take immediate action on this and I am ready to
support from my end.
” - Manu
“ My elder brother is suffering from TB. He is so depressed and he cries every
day.
” - Anirudh
“ I want to say that 8 years ago I had TB and it was very painful and the worst
time for me. I was so helpless because no one understood this.
”
- Zarina
“ I loved the TB episode so much that I saw it again with my husband who’s
suffering from TB. Only I wish I could see the episode with my in-laws who feel I am
the unlucky person in my husband’s life because of which he is suffering from TB. As
correctly portrayed and said in the show, everyone is hit by the virus but it’s when
our immunity level is down, such diseases catch hold of us.
In 10 months of marriage, I have seen the worst, as a TB infected patient is
vulnerable and susceptible to any virals in the atmosphere. And one that effected my
husband was dengue along with TB, which was definitely not in my control nor in the
doctor’s control.
