“ Today after watching the episode on Tuberculosis, there is one story that I
want to share with your team. My partner was diagnosed with TB a year back. Before
TB was diagnosed, his family was not ready for intercaste marriage and had
superstitious beliefs like manglik dosh and all. After TB was diagnosed, his family
agreed for intercaste marriage thinking that no one would marry their son. I accepted
his disease because I know anyone can have this disease. I stood by him and gave
him all support that he needed.
I am seasonal allergic. I have pollen allergy usually in the month of March or
November. My disease was told in advance to his mother. She didn’t say anything
initially because her son had TB. Now after 1 year she refused for marriage saying
that her son can get a better girl physically. Reason being her son is now fit and fine.
She thinks seasonal allergy is communicable which is not true. On one part
Mangalyaan has reached Mars but the other part of India is still stuck in Manglik
dosh, apshagun, kundli and all.

“ As someone who has spent two years recovering from TB, I promise you it’s
not a disease you’d wish on your worst enemy.

“ One of my uncles was also suffering from the same problem but he fully
neglected it. At last his wife decided to meet a doctor and after the check-up they
came to know that he was at the last stage of TB. It became very serious and difficult.
So I request all to never neglect these kinds of problems.
