We received Tshering on April 29, 2003. He was treated conservatively in Banaras for a month and then to Bir Hospital for three months. He had also done acupuncture therapy. When we received him, he could not get up and sit. Also, right portion of his body was weak and could not move his legs properly. Grip was not present in his right hand. After staying 11 months at SIRC, he could stand without any help, sit and control his body properly. Now he can walk with the help of crutch. We discharged him on November 3, 2003.

Tshering is now planning to take training at Center for blind and disabled at Kirtipur. He will be taking, English, Computer and office management training.

We are now planning to get him a job as a teacher. We wish his success.
