Welcome to the 7th Episode of Caregiver Diaries: Season 2!

Here’s a story about an invisible warrior, whose entire family got infected with COVID-19. It revolves around the difficulties faced during the time of COVID-19, helplessness, and resilience in the face of a crisis. It serves as a reminder of how we are all caregivers at some point or the other. 

“In the middle of the night, I traveled to Meerut and Manesar, hunted for oxygen cylinders, and was able to get 2 oxygen cylinders at an exorbitant price of Rs.60,000 each. On reaching home, I was shattered to find one of the cylinders empty.”

“I promised myself to take as much responsibility as I can, just because I could. My daughter was worried that I was spending my entire day being around covid patients and asked me if I could give a little less time perhaps than what I do now, to which I answered “if not me then who?” 

Listen to the story of his struggles with the toughest health crisis of the decade, COVID-19.
