Do It In Your Way But Boost The Children

Do It your way But boost the Child

A two year child was suffering with mild disease characterized by watery diarrhea and low grade fever in a village of India is always thought as an early sign of tooth development and in most of the cases it looks right too.

Gradually the child’s symptoms turn from mild to slight severity on day one, where the child been provided with some syrups of paracetamol and loperamide which did not help. On the day two, the condition of the child turns severe with a lot of watery diarrhea and vomits until the child was hospitalized and take to the intensive care unit.

 The child was provided with re-hydration drips without diagnosing, which eventually did not do a great job as well; finally, the child succumbs. The story must look so easy, but the condition will not be so different for many diarrheal infections caused by bacteria like Campylobacter,Salmonella enteritidis, Shigella, Clostridium difficle: Protozoans like Entamoebahystolytica,Giardia:  Deadly viruses like Rota virus which will be main but lesser known culprit to the world along with Adeno viruses and Astero viruses.

But these dangers cannot harm adults; because of the immune mechanism that is well developed , but not well developed in infants and children who are under five years. 

It might be simple disease that prevail everywhere, but for children it is a dangerous . These disease  kill about 1.5 million children every year.

Children's health is truly dependent on its environment, and every one of us has a greater responsibility, but mother and her caretakers are crucial.

A mother is everything to a child, from the day of the zygote formation. Immunity for a  child should come from mothers placenta, where only IgG class of antibody could cross. Apart from IgG, it is IgA class of antibody that provide passive immunity through breast milk. Therefore it is necessary to take care of mother to keep the child healthy after birth. This is where, the child’s immune system should be to be boosted and it is the basement for healthy life.

How many of Indian women meets requirement that are necessary to give birth to a child? It is very stinging one, but the facts tell t most Indian women are deficient of calcium and proteins. The antibodies which are proteins  will be below optimum than required.

“Indian Mothers are malnourished hence Indian children too”

What can be done?

·    
         The School provide meals to children who are above 3 years, But what about those who are below 3? is This has to be monitored .

·        

   Pregnant women are taken care in hospitals only during the time of labor pain; especially, in government  hospitals on which most of the Indian population depends.

·         

      A scheme of monitoring pregnant women's nutritional needs can do a great job If not every pregnant women should be supplemented an artificial pill like nutrition should be produced and given by government  and charities.

Smoking

If we google the facts about the infant's immune system; smoking will be visualized as a cause of child's ill health. It is one of the reasons which deteriorates both mother’s and child’s health because lungs are the weak spot in the premature baby and will affect it’s cell, hence leading to lung related autoimmune disease, diabetes, cancer like diseases.

In India; though no of  active women smokers are very lesser but most of the women are more prone to danger for passive smoking.

Prevention:

The simple solution is not to smoke; if not , not to smoke in the public place and in every place where a woman or child could encounter passive smoke. Despite of cigarette smoke there will be so many smokes that could give out Carbon monoxide and Sulphur-di- oxide which could affect the leucocytes in the blood of humans. These have to be monitored by just avoiding the smoke of vehicle “Travel in a public vehicle” dispose the factory chimneys by innovative  strategies.

Vaccination

Though the vaccination in India is proving effective in doses of OPV, DPT, MMR, BCG because they are free of cost and available in all possible hospitals; but, most of the vaccines like Hepatitis,Rota virus vaccines could not even reach rich  people because of lack of awareness. But from May  2013 Indian scientists proved an effective vaccine for Rota virus named as “Rotovac” which is available in the market at the cost of Rs.50 which was around 1000 before.

What we can do is spreading the message through social networking and other sources because lack of awareness is the major cause for the failure of these vaccinations; which, otherwise could save millions of children in India. 

Environment

Children’s health always related to the possible environmental causes.. A good food, water, air could definitely prevent Gastrointestinal disease and lung diseases. Proper sanitization will prevent  most of the  airborne diseases . Monitoring water bodies, puddles, drainages can prevent flying vector borne diseases.

“Clean environment is the Safe Environment” Making this a motto, it can  look simple but works wonders.

Washing hands and good sanitary practice safeguard the whole human community.

Request to Doctors

Though doctors are not really responsible for children's health directly, but they are the media that can impact people of the country like India; because, people believe only doctors. Doctor’s should study the microbes thoroughly which they do only for academic purpose . Pressure to the doctors to give antibiotics often may leads to multi drug resistance which is dangerous for the future and doctors have to avoid this.

Conclusion

·         Proper Food to child and mother filled with cereals, milk, egg, fruits.

·         Clean environment.

·         Breast feed awareness and encouragement.

·         Proper Diagnosis of diseases aided by Bio-technology.

·         Avoid active and passive smoking as much as possible.

·         Vaccination and its awareness creation.

·         Social awareness through various ways.

·         Educating people.

Ranga Payana- Journey from darkness to luminiscence

The blog below is content of the website of "Ranga Payana" theatre group which is been translated  from kannada.

What is the disagreement in the lightening smile of innocent hearts? In the barrack marking famishes and pain, hundreds of dreams.  Ample of examples for those ingenuous hearts, guiding their simple life, blending themselves with one’s and all with no demur.   Trembled in meaningless satire observances .Unbearable life of these children startled us. Miserable exploitation, leading to un-happiness in their lives. Battling for pin-money, giving up their schooling for those tiny chores, not acquiring a good job, dreadful their futurity, without position, deprived of the valuable thoughts of life. Ironically even today this is a question…

Though the complexion of Topsy-curvy insecurity and suppression varies. In these cities children suffer loneliness, struggling from fascism of parents and small families, suffocated schooling and lessons, punishments, every prevailing loss and disgrace. Significantly the children who are under pressure of competition, who are scoring marks for someone’s happiness suffer a mental drawback. Children who are deprived of opportunities, quarantined their schooling, enrolled themselves in money making and unusual activities. Children who dream of school serving their family as child labor, children of unusual mentality prevailed around us. Encouraging backward, needy children’s education. And there by kickoff the basement for future. we are the responsible for children physical and mental stability. In order take off initiation “Ranga Payana” journey from darkness to luminescence.

Our motto is to encourage education, to spurt up the repressed child, to bring the labors, slum children, blind children to the main stream of society from darkness to luminescence by conducting adventurous camps, theater activities mental ability classes.  Providing free schooling, providing books and building libraries.

Come let’s put hand together and move in “Ranga Payana” journey from darkness to luminescence. 

SMALL IDEA BIG IMPACT

Small Idea Big Impact

Watching Sanitary pad box; boy gibe’s at a girl “Bread, for whom”, for which girl got exasperated and answers “it’s for you come in the morning you will get it with tea”. 

Don’t know how much we make fun of it. Even in metropolitans, men of age 16 to 26 who are aware of the product whoop out a laugh at sanitary pads, rather than treating it  as a normal stationary.

People who talk about using condoms, sexual education and its importance Blah Blah, they themselves are the part of sexual comics written on Sanitary pads.

When we look over, every day millions of women in India; in-fact; globally, women suffer over their monthly sexual cycle an even it’s a matter of hesitant to them to express, even in front of their husband. 

Have you ever used gunny bags, rags or saw dust to small wounds or cuts to avoid infection?  I think the answer will be No, but it’s true and horrible that Indian women were using these, to protect their genital issue called as a menstrual period. It’s a matter to think and even today many orthodox Indian families treat women as untouchables, rather than solicitude to women during their menstrual periods.

Off course, this is a global issue; Still no one thought of it, neither the women activists/associations nor the women and child welfare ministry. Though, multinational companies given a solution to this issue; but, it were not reachable middle class or poor class. 

When this problem was a taboo, he came up with an idea Mr.Arunachalam Muruganantham. “Small idea big impact” was his product's motto and he reached his goal. Today, number of sanitary pad users increased to 3.5 million and more.

What he has done was a simple research and based on which he reduced the cost of sanitary pads by framing a simple machine for its production. This was crucial initiation. He experimented his products on his wife, sisters, some outsiders and finally on himself. Such was his passion and concern over this small issue (as per world).

One might think, what a sanitary pad can do for the country. It’s true that it solved  the problem of millions of women around the country .  It provided jobs to thousand across the country, even at the top part of the Himalayas. Most importantly, those who started earning from the machine were poor women.

His simple thinking, a passion for his concern, non-greedy business strategies made him a successful entrepreneur and though his accent of English is not a great one, but today he is one of the finest and the humorous orator in all major business schools of India. 

It is not surprising for anybody, since he received Presidents award, but it was  still special when he received it  from first the women president of India.

Thanks to Arunachalam Muruganantham and his small idea and big impact that relieved millions of women around the country.  Hats off to him for leading meaningful inspirational  life.

It was a chaos

And dirty little thing for us

He took that dirty little problem

And solved it with small idea his name was Muruganantham.

BOOK OF MEMORIES

Opened the book of memories 

left were just  the tears 

When tears were the words

Poems that born were hundreds 

Don’t know where you travelled  

never returned back, from the unseen world, 

Pressing a pause

To the pace of our happiness

On and on memorizing 

Your smile

Yet the pool of tears disguise 

Oh dear! How to forget the fear of turmoil

To forget your face, I tried hard

To forget is it a half blossomed bud 

Even the flower can fade

How is it possible to forget your end.

Oh my friend 

Your memories are immortal,  

Infinite, impeccable, recurring                                                                                                                                         
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   

DONT PANIC

 

If a person is addicted to alcohol, we call them alcoholic, If a person is psychologically weak, we call them psychic; but, the word panic is nothing but addiction to pain .

Pain-ic is nothing but panic. In and around our lives, we come across lots of situations; where, every one of us comes across panic situations. Getting panic is the ultimate path of a catastrophe. Always ice cool nature will lead life happily.

No man is devoid of pain, grief and whine . Everyone of us has undergone a situation of pathetic or come across medical emergency. Under such situation becoming panic is common, Panic minds not just ruin them-,self but his fellows too. If the patient infers panic, he won’t recover from disease easily. If his mates get panic, the situation will be worse; since,they hits on patients hope by showing panic.

Similar to medical exigency, we come across lots of natural disasters such as earthquakes, tsunami, fire accidents; where, the situations are difficult to handle; because, man is speck in front of nature to withstand. Getting panic is such regards kill lives that could otherwise have been saved.

When I think of the word “PANIC’ I think of  certain situation I experienced and most of us do.

There will be situations and NEWS, heard by everyone of us about people losing lives after drowning in the water  accidentally slipping into the water or else falling into deep without knowing swim completely. 

Under such situations, panic minds going to die beyond doubt; and, they take a few with them as well. Even while drowning, one will not die immediately; but, turning panic will take them to the end. Under worse condition they pull someone and take their lives with them. Even best swimmers find difficult to rescue them. In some other situations good swimmers turn panic and plunge themselves.

Born in a goldsmith family and being in a pure science field, I came across lots of acid accidents. One day I heard one bad event in one of my known families; where three year child burned his legs, pulling up the HNO3 bottle which was often used in devising jewelry. 

An overwhelming feeling of fear and anxiety and the child’s mother to rub the child’s legs with a cloth; which resulted in a spread of the acid half way of the body up  to the thigh and in some parts of the hand and abdomen as well. 

The child is gifted with scars of acid burn for the rest of the life, as a result of getting panic. Taking cool,  if she would have poured lots of water or thud the child into water tub and then applied baking soda available at home, acid would have neutralized to greater extent if not completely.

While studying M.Sc, one of my classmates drank acid while mouth pipetting in a tautness of lab. And her life was in danger, we all were in panic and stood static until one cool guy poured water into her mouth and rescued her life by avoiding the burning of her tungsten; though her pink lips burned. 

Often we hear about accidents, road mishaps which are the result of being anxious or clueless due to affright situation. We all heard about drivers jumping from their seat, damaging him; but, causing disaster. People keep on pressing accelerator when they are being panicke or scared.

Even in the corporate world, anxious minds quarrel with higher officials, which result in their loss of appraisal or resignation. The loss is not to higher authority as they may feel happy for saving some bucks to the company which helps their appraisal .

At the edge of victory doesn’t panic, it helps your opponent to take a chance.  Being cool make its way ease more.  Probably this is why Dhoni is praised for.

For every one of us catastrophic emergencies are a default.

BEING PANIC JUST INCREASE THE PAIN

NOTHING WILL BE LEFT OTHER THAN VAIN

BEING COOL CAN ROOT OUT THE BANE

EVEN WE TOO CAN PLEASURE PEOPLE LIKE A RAIN

Do The Feelings Fade?

Do The Feelings Fade?

Do the feelings fade?

Whether it roams around a Universe called mind?

 Climbing the mountain of annoyance

Kissing Breeze of glee

Before sword of death snap And

Rupturing our chest.

Mind, love, friendship, Hatred,

Disguising belief of rise And decayed

Language of Land, forest, Water, insects,

Before throning Fierceness, courage, gallantry

Do the feelings fade?

Whether it roams around a universe called Mind?

Luster of laughter

Irony of wonder

Enduring grief of fatigue And fast

Fondness, beauties light

 Before diffusing

 Thunder of Emotions

Drawing subtle strikes

Before burning a blaze

Do the feelings fade?

 Whether it roams around a universe called Mind?
