"She was infested with worms from her head
to toe and she reeked of blood", said Theruvoram NGO founder Murugan S
when she rescued an orphan old woman from the Kathrikadavu railway track.
A railway employee informed Murugan about this lady and he had decided to act upon the situation sooner. But he wasn't going to think that the case was so severe that he had to stop breathing for intervals of time in order to not vomit due to the smell evolving from her body.
When Theruvoram Murugan reached the railway track, he spotted the woman, covering herself with a towel and she was severely bruised as there were blood stains all over her body. She was malnourished as only her teeth were visible and she was offered water and bananas. On enquiring about her to the localities, it was confirmed that she was being pushed by somebody from the train causing her the injuries. That was not all, Murugan was in for another shock as when he approached her, her body was found to be semi rotten as worms were eating on her flesh. Her brain was half eaten and she suffers from mental illness too.
Theruvoram Murugan with a help of a social worker, admitted her to the hospital where the doctors washed out more than 400 worms out of her body. Her recovery was at stake but slowly she came back to life.
"Myself and my organisation feels extremely honoured to save lives of people who never thought there was still a chance to survive."
