Remote Village. Difficult Terrain. A Mother’s Fight for Her Child’s Breath.
And how one clinic changed everything.
In the mist-covered hills of Shiliang Jashar, a remote village in the Pynursla region of Meghalaya, 6-month-old Baby Merin was struggling to breathe. Persistent cough, nasal congestion, and sleepless nights made life painful—for both the baby and his mother. With the nearest hospital 50 km away in Shillong and no reliable transport, reaching medical help meant lost wages, long walks, and rising fears.
🔻 But Merin isn’t alone.
📊 Meghalaya’s infant mortality rate stands at 33 deaths per 1,000 live births, higher than the national average of 30.
📉 In many such regions, the lack of accessible and affordable healthcare makes even treatable conditions dangerous.
That’s where Gramin Healthcare stepped in. Through our extensive outreach program, our team reached Merin’s village with:
🩺 Teleconsultation with a qualified doctor
💨 Nebulizer services at our Pynursla clinic
💊 Affordable medication & follow-ups
The result?
Today, Baby Merin sleeps better, eats well, and is growing stronger every day. His mother, once exhausted and fearful, now finds peace in her child’s steady recovery. 💚
