Thanks to people like you, Gaganand is back to being his playful happy self. For the 13-year-old Gaganand, life was all about playing with friends. He loved playing cricket. But one day, two years ago, all this came to an abrupt end. His mother, Savita, noticed a discoloured patch on his body. As there was no sensation on the patch, she thought something was amiss. She took him to the local doctor, who diagnosed him with leprosy. Savita belongs to a conservative community in Buldhana district of Maharashtra. People in her community have misconceptions about the disease. She knows people with leprosy suffer from stigma. She saw people shunning those affected by leprosy and feared the same for her son. Their social standing was under threat if people knew that Gaganand is affected by leprosy. They’d be boycotted. So, Savita kept her son’s leprosy a secret. She asked her son not to visit his friends or play with them. On that day Gaganand’s cheerful nature came to an abrupt end. He turned into an ‘introverted loner’. Savita continued discreet treatment of her son. But after a year of medication, Gaganand lost sensation in his hand and feet. Also, fingers of his left hand clawed (These are complications of leprosy. Gaganand, with his mother Savita, at The Leprosy Mission Kothara Hospital, after undergoing reconstructive surgery to correct his clawed hand. They happen when the bacterium that causes the disease attacks nerves in the legs and hands). The family could no longer hide his leprosy. Their worst fear came true – they faced alienation in the community. Because of his disability, Gaganand was forced to drop out of school. “People stopped visiting our house. They did not want to associate with us. My son was not allowed to play with other children. I worried about him and my three daughters,” says a shaken Savita. Then great news! They heard about free reconstructive surgery at The Leprosy Mission hospital in Kothara. It is 150km from their village. Savita was hopeful. She heard that leprosy-related deformities in hands, legs, and eyes could be corrected. And patients could lead a normal life. Admitted to hospital, Gaganand had the surgery. He is now counting the days until he can go back to school. Gaganand will be free from his disability and will be able to pursue his studies and make the most out of his life.
