It was a Wednesday morning when we, the woman folk, visited
a carried away place called Karunashraya. A place where we learnt two new
vocabs palliative care and hospice center. A moderately aged person sat in
front of us and started a simple conversation which he tagged later as the
orientation. The entire conversation was mesmerizing made me feel good about
what I am today, what I am blessed with.
Karunashraya, a place full of hope… a place who adorns when
you fall into lonesome. It’s in pragmatic and
hospice center which gives palliative care to the patients abandoned from hope
as they are suffering from last stage of Cancer. To devote some meaning,
palliative care means “Remedy that alleviates pain without curing”, yes they
give care to a patient who is suffering from non-curing disease.
This is formed back in 1994 and declared themselves to be
free from charges for the services they would provide. Not to forget the place
is nowhere close to hospital, it was a meditation center and greenery talked
about it to be a resort. They are now accommodated with 55 in patients and 68
staffs to materialized what they had dreamt about.
Talking to one person made us feel so empathetic that our
heart wept for them. Each one in that center had an amazing story, few stories
we could lock in our memory and few needed time, which we all fall short
of.
The only target for the serving people is to full fill those
patient’s wish weather it’s a craving to have idly for breakfast or meeting
Amir Khan. Every small or big wishes are handled with care that’s the
definition of Karunashraya. It reminds me of the saying:
Coming together is a beginning. Keeping together is progress.
Working together is success
