A New Lease of Life

Many a time, the unexpected does happen in a person’s life. A seemingly healthy individual develops a sudden and sometimes life-threatening condition leaving family members shocked. One such story is that of Mr. Dhanamani from Salem. His mother, Ms. Juliana, relates her son’s story of sickness, his treatment and his subsequent recovery at Kauvery Hospital.


A Mother’s Shock

Ms. Juliana recounts how suddenly one day her son complained of numbness in his hands and feet. He was immediately taken to the hospital and while consultation was going on, his right hand and leg got paralyzed. He was rushed to the ICU and examinations and tests were done to identify the cause. The tests revealed that there was a block in the nerve that led to the brain and this was the cause for the paralysis. The doctors further revealed that the block was around 60% and if not operated on it would lead to coma and possibly even death.

The patient’s family immediately agreed with the doctor’s advice for surgery and placed their trust in the doctor and his team to do what they thought was best for Mr. Dhanamani. Dr Santhosh Kumar performed the surgery and the block was removed successfully.

The Ordeal Continues

In spite of the surgery being successful, the doctor informed the patient’s family members that they would have to be on guard and watchful overnight. The surgery was performed on January 31st and on February 2nd another scan was done to check the outcome of the surgery. The scan result showed that there was swelling in the brain and to treat the swelling another surgery on the skull would be essential. This surgery too was performed with the family members’ consent.

Ms. Juliana recounts those 15 days which were indeed an ordeal to her and her family. She is filled with immense gratitude towards the doctors who were responsible for saving her son’s life. She recounts tearfully how her family had lost hope of her son’s recovery but the doctors managed to treat him successfully both the times.

Making the Mother Smile Once Again

Ms. Juliana’s gratitude knows no bounds as she talks about the doctors and support staff who helped her family and son through these trying times. Their care was unparalleled she says. Regular check-ups continued and 3 months after surgery a skull replacement surgery was also performed on Mr. Dhanamani.

Ms. Juliana says that her son is completely fine now and with folded hands thanks Kauvery Hospital for their treatment and care.
