Power of Inner Strength

 Inner Strength


Dr Tripti Milind Galgali
Anaesthesiologist, Hubli.

A 75yr lady was referred for pain and Palliative care to me.
A sudden weakness episode got her investigated.
She was diagnosed terminal stage of Cancer due to metastasis every where.
" You have few months to live".
Hearing this,a physically active lady yesterday, suddenly got bedridden.
An energetic lady yesterday needed help for basic needs.
When she saw me" Doctor, can you make me just like I was yesterday in few months?"
I asked" Why ? Where do you want to go?"
She: " I want to attend my grandson 's Convocation. "
I promised her pain relief only if she got up from bed.
The inner strength to make it to her grandson's Convocation got the lady not only up sitting but in 2- 3 months,she made Kheer herself in the kitchen and brought for me.
The lady survived for 1 yr.
Yes,she did see her Grandson 's Convocation ceremony on screen.

Inner Strength.
It motivates positivity in people when their whole world simply crumbles down and they are helpless and feel hopeless.

This incident made me realize....
Doctors are not just treating.....
Doctors are Healers.

Many a times,conditions in life do turn irreversible and desperate.
When everything goes unfavorable.....

Inner Strength gives us faith.
Faith builds courage.
Courage makes one strong to face the circumstances.

When we cannot build our inner strength.....

Then it's responsibility of elders to help one to build the inner strength. SUPPORT AND ENCOURAGE.
In the family,if a young member is struggling in life,...disappointed inspite of efforts....
It's responsibility of parents to boost morale and build inner strength to face difficulties.
In school,if a child is struggling with a subject or an activity,the Duty of Teacher is not only to impart education but also encourage a weak student to work harder.
A Mentor builds inner strength of the followers by inculcating trust and faith .
Spiritualism too does same work.
TRUST  AND FAITH in one's Inner strength.
Even a mountain can be pushed ....

Inner strength makes us Resilient.
Inner strength makes us believe in ourselves and our efforts.

" When the woods look dark and lonely....
The Forests dense and deep.....
When you feel you can not go any more.....broken and tired.....

There lies a strength silently within.....
Pulls us up.....and helps,guides us  to find the path and  move ahead."

I QUIT!!!!

  I Quit!!!! Yesterday, my kids favorite teacher,a very motivating person who helped so many students perform better .....a disturbed student, a student finding it difficult to cope,an average or below average student  ....so many of them,he not only taught them to fare well but boosted confidence into them to do well with their life......such a person QUIT......He ended his life by hanging himself in his house....leaving a bereaved aged mother,a dependent wife and 2 very small children behind. Few days back,a Radiologist committed suicide while another Post Graduate student succumbed to Depression. Life is a challenge. Life is unpredictable. To all. Just as a Sinus Curve....there are Ups and Downs in life. Students have pressure of exams. Youth have professional career pressures. Adults have umpteen challenges. Finance,Relationship, Career,Illnesses....Peer and Society pressures.....Loans and EMI  .....Bull And Bear Stock Market add to the pressure.If added Addic...

When you lose Health

 When you lose your health...... I was referred a 70yr man suffering from severe pain. A CA Lung with metastasis. He was a very successful, famous Advocate.A Robust and Dynamic personality yesterday.  But that Cancer had made him weak and vulnerable.  He had become a frail shadow..... Another patient with Parkinson 's disease regularly visits for pain relief . A retired Chairman of a Conglomerate.  Both these people have been Dynamic personalities looked up on by everyone. They inspired youth by their enormous work and attitude.  Today,though the Brain is very strong..... The Body became weak and debilitating.  They get emotional " Why me,Doctor?" " Just look at me today.Yesterday I was energetic and always on the go.Today I struggle with pain.Tomorrow I may either be on a wheel chair or bedridden for the rest of my life." Yes,it pains,breaks even a Doctor's heart. We Doctors are taught not to be emotionally attached to the disease .We can sympathize the su...
