‘Pain and palliative care centre in Kavaratti out to heal mankind in distresses’ (Letter)

In editorial BY Admin On 25 May 2015
Pain and palliative care centre started only two years back under the charitable organisation Thanal has begun to create waves among the island people in distress and agony, poor and the needy in Lakshadweep. Centre’s vision was to take the concept of quality health care to people. Personally, I visited Thanal’s office in Kavaratti and I am happy that Thana has accomplished its mission since last two years. It is doing a tremendous service to the people of islands with life limiting illness. Services of the centre includes: 1. Round the clock medical aids to people with life limiting illness. 2. Free medicine supply including morphine. 3. Home based medications, catheter change, wound care, feeding etc. 4. Bereavement support for the family. 5. Physical aids to persons with disabilities. Eminent Doctors are brought from outside to treat the patients with cancer, children with other disability. For all these services to heal the mankind to bring a smile in the face of the sufferer has a common man. A nation’s strength is measured in terms of the bond of love, respect and understanding, a sense of responsibility, security and inner maturity among its people. The individual’s life is in the life of whole, the individual’s happiness is in the happiness of the whole; apart from the whole, the individual’s existence is inconceivable –this is an external truth on which the universe is built. Those who are men and yet have no feeling in the heart for man, well are such to be counted as men at all? Our duty to others means helping others, doing well to the world.
