So it was last November, my grandmother was very ill. As we live in the suburbs, the roads and connectivity are very poor compared to urban areas. Since she was very sick, we could not find any doctors nearby. I took the responsibility of being a good doctor in my place. I visited every clinic in my area, but no one was ready to come to my place. Finally, after searching for a long time, I came across a doctor who was traveling in his personal car. I somehow stopped him, and after explaining the problem, he understood my situation and agreed to examine my grandmother over a video call session. After assessing the situation, he prescribed the medicines. I bought the medicines and tried my best to put in my efforts to achieve a positive outcome. So this is how I helped and improved my grandmother's health that day.
