The world this week’ was one of my favorite program telecasted in DD every Friday late night. I used to watch the program without miss, courtesy electricity department, provided there was no power cut. One of the story that I recollected was the team of doctors agree to operate conjoined heads of two Boys from Germany. This was very hot news as the boys struggled to walk together and more painful for their parents who needed to take care of them. Thank God, at that time the news anchors were frank and there were no shouting. I think the parents might have worried about the future of these boys as their heads are joined and their activity were different. The operation was successful and I don’t remember any news about that boys. That operation become a stepping stone for these conjoined children’s where we find many doctors separating at later stage at many countries.
In received an shared video of a Pastor narrating a story of Single, Black and Poverty Mother who gets married at the age of 13 to a man of 28 years. She give birth to Two Sons, they live in a slum. When the boys were studying in fifth standard, The head master summons the kids mother and informs that he sees the kids future as watchmen, Criminals etc. as they don’t cope with education. I heard the pastor informing that the mother cried for 2 whole days and see got the vision and she told the kids to read books at the local library and submit the summary of the book they read every week. The kids who were poor, by god’s grace become intelligent and top the class. Over the period of Ben becomes a Doctor and he was the person who operates the conjoined kids for the first time and this becomes history.
After listing to this narrative, I purchased the book and the book was really inspiring. I also came to know they have made television serial on this book.
This book is a autobiography of man who was judged by the Teacher, that he sees his future would be criminal to a transformation where people of America crowd fund his candidature to become President. The government nominates him as the secretary of Housing and Urban Development.
An inspiring read from childhood to become famous neurosurgeon and to raise to the position of Secretary. Nicely articulated story! Once I completed reading the book, I just googled to know what happened to the two boys who were operated. Although Carson was able to separate the boys, they were both left profoundly disabled. Two years after the separation, that Patrick remained in a "vegetative state", following the surgery. He never came out of his coma. Their father was emotionally unable to ever handle them, or share in their care. It is said the twin''s father became an alcoholic, spent all the couple''s funds, and left their mother destitute and alone. In an interview the mother of the conjoined kids, termed guilt for agreeing to the operation that ruined the boys'' prospect of ever having any quality of life.
Life is such!
