Indramani is 51 with 4 children. She developed leprosy as a child. Her parents took her to many doctors but none made the diagnosis. When she was 17 she had an ulcer on her foot, and was finally diagnosed with leprosy at the health centre and was started on treatment. Her toe needed removing with surgery and she still has pain when walking. Her biggest challenge is her pain and ulcers.
She feels that the tea garden management did not help leprosy patients properly. Her family stood beside her and helped her be mentally strong. She is proud of them.
