BLESSINGS
& MESSAGE
His Holiness Vasishta
Muni, Aryadarvesh
Vedic VanaPrastha Ashram
Udhampur, (Jammu&Kasmir)
|
|
| Hardly there
is a person who is totally free from any
physical disorder. Right form the time of
man's appearance on this planet, he has
been fighting our diseases. He has succeeded
in doing so, to a great extent, but there
are still areas where a breakthrough has
yet to come by, Muscular Dystrophy is one
such malady. While medical research is persistently
going on, the patients afflicted with MD
need not sit in self-pity: they can put
up a bold face and enjoy life as a blessing.
All of
us are endowed with ability to contribute
towards the welfare of Humanity. Our talents
and capabilities always exhort us to come
up with zest and zeal to make life a wonderful
privilege, notwithstanding the onset of
diseases like MD. Earnest respect for
general rules of health coupled with specific
instructions of the doctor, cultivation
of positive out-look towards life, and
a regular toning-up of the self through
daily meditation, will go a long way in
making life worth living in spite of the
presence of Muscular Dystrophy.
MY GOOD WISHES
TO ALL THE MD PATIENTS

SOME DO'S AND DON'T'S
Dont's
- Don't discuss
about the whole course of the disease before
the patient (prognosis)
- Never give
any figure about the longevity of the patient.
- Always instill
a positive attitude in the MD.
- Provide some
avocation to spend his time purposefully.
- Don't show
him undue sympathy. Treat him as an individual
and don't point your figure on his impairment.
- Don't stare
at him while he / she walks.
- MDs are interested
in watching games and sports and films. Discuss
with them about cricket and films, and not
about the disease and the discomforts.
- When you visit
MD's, offer them some indoor toys, video games
sitting games, or at least sweets for they
are generally starved for companionship.
- Physiotherapy is a helpful
agency with its own limitations; it is not
a curative agent. Hence don't overstrain the
patient
