Thanks to the skilled team at Green Pas­tures Hos­pital, Satish has regained move­ment in his left hand and a renewed sense of inde­pend­ence. Dia­gnosed with leprosy at just 17, Satish first noticed unusual symptoms—painful nerves and his left hand begin­ning to claw. This marked the start of a journey that would test his resi­li­ence and reveal the life-chan­ging impact of early dia­gnosis, spe­cial­ised treat­ment, and ded­ic­ated care.

After his initial dia­gnosis at Lumbini Province Hos­pital, Satish began a 21-month course of mul­tidrug therapy (MDT) for leprosy, which helped manage the disease but brought its own chal­lenges, includ­ing skin dark­en­ing. As his symp­toms pro­gressed, he was referred to Green Pas­tures Hos­pital (GPH) for further com­plic­a­tion man­age­ment. At GPH, Satish under­went nerve decom­pres­sion surgery, a vital inter­ven­tion to restore func­tion in his hand and alle­vi­ate the con­stant pain and dis­com­fort that had impacted his daily life.

Fol­low­ing surgery, Satish spent a month at GPH, receiv­ing intens­ive occu­pa­tional therapy and nursing care designed to restore strength and sen­sa­tion in his hand. This period of recov­ery was essen­tial, allow­ing him to regain control and mobil­ity while build­ing his con­fid­ence for the future. The ded­ic­ated care provided by GPH’s team helped him see a path forward, free from the lim­it­a­tions leprosy had imposed on him.

Beyond phys­ical recov­ery, the support and encour­age­ment Satish received at GPH reignited his hope for the future. Now back in school and determ­ined to finish his high school edu­ca­tion, Satish has a new outlook on life, inspired by the skilled inter­ven­tion and com­pas­sion­ate care he received. He’s con­fid­ent that with con­tin­ued treat­ment, he’ll fully recover from the disease and pursue his dreams with renewed energy.

Satish’s journey high­lights the import­ance of access­ible, spe­cial­ised care for leprosy patients and the remark­able impact that timely medical inter­ven­tion can have. His story is a power­ful test­a­ment to how hos­pit­als like GPH are trans­form­ing lives, one patient at a time, and offer­ing a new lease on life to those affected by leprosy and other complex conditions.
