I had lost one eye had a retina transplant, doctors took skin patches from all over my body and grafted my one breast which was severely damd, during breastfeeding Prithu I felt many complications. Even w I can’t stretch my neck sometime itching in grafted skin is so bad that I wish I was dead... shockingly acid victims numbers are very high in India, culprit was out on bail within few weeks, it was too painful to see him roam around freely. I stopped following case, why t death sentence for se people? Beauty was last thing I cared about I was university topper but best years of my youth went in operation atres, even though I had 90 percent burn still reservation for acid survivors. se are some of questions we need to ask ourselves and our system."
