Ms. Aruna Shanbag died on 18-May-2015
in KEM Hospital, Mumbai. The entire nation reacted with sadness. She was in a vegetative
state after she was brutally raped by a wardboy, Sohanlal B. Valmiki, in 1973. The
staff of KEM Hospital took care of her for more than four decades. The rapist
was convicted and walked free from jail after 7 years and is now settled in
Delhi.
There are no words for the excellent
service & care extended by the nursing staff of KEM Hospital, and also the
support extended to her by the top management of the hospital – the care was so
excellent that in spite of being in a vegetative state, she did not have even a
single bed-sore !!
Due to pneumonia, she breathed her
last on Monday. She had become an in-seperable part of KEM Hospital, the love
& affection & attachment was so deep & intense that even the last
rites were carried out by them.
CESA, Mumbai salutes the spirit and yeoman services
rendered by the KEM nursing staff. The
spirit of Mumbai in caring for somebody in a manner better than blood
relatives, Aruna will be an example.
