Why we started Super Blogger Challenge :Backstory #SuperBloggerChallenge

By Dr.Amrita Basu(MBBS,MS) on February 7, 2019 14

Did you sign up? If you didn’t, register now!

Super Blogger challenge is not just any challenge. Its one big adrenaline rush.Its a sure shot method of beating those Alzheimer’s plaque (at least mine) and its a definite way of making friends like never before. I have never met Dr.Bushra in person and we have been working together for the last two years.

That’s the power of blogging

Fun fact

We are both blogging from small towns and big cities depending on our professional work commitment and we are full-time Doctors! That makes us super crazy to even start this.B ut what’s life if not challenging?

This challenge is conceptualized and hosted by Dr.Bushra and myself. This is the second season and I we are so excited, that we can’t sit still!

If this is your first time, then go through the tips shared by the Super Blogger Challengers of 2018 posts about the challenge will help you understand what this is about.

4 years back when I started blogging I knew no one in the Indian Blogging scene. Then I stumbled upon Indiblogger and Blogchatter both amazing platforms for bloggers to find friends and grow together.

But I remembered the time back in 2014 when I was blogging in a vacuum and felt lost. I wished there was someone who showed me how they were doing it so that I could find my own way. Blogging has a different purpose for everyone. Why I blog is different from why you do.

But if you have a blog and you are sharing content online you are spending time and money.

Time is precious and limited.Make it count.
Even if its a free WordPress blog data is not free. So your wordpress.com does have a financial investment whether you accept it or not.

Why am I telling you this? Because if you are serious about Blogging it needs to be self-sustaining

That’s what we teach you during Super Blogger Challenge.

Do you have a blog? That’s great!

Is anyone reading it? That’s where we come in. During the next 30 days, we will share our insights about blogging and take you on a journey with us. Hopefully, this will make all our blogs stronger and better.T he best part is you will win prizes.

How much and how many will depend on your efforts.

Last year was fun. This year it’s going to be even better.

Instacuppa is our official sponsor. That means we definitely have to support them too. Use the hashtag #Superbloggerchallenge and #Instacuppa on all social media.

While our challenge has a mix of new, intermediate, and pro bloggers, we believe we can all grow a little more toward the light by sharing.I started blogging in 2014.The blogging lessons learned were tough. Every year I learn a little more.

When you write a blog post it can’t sit in isolation. It needs to be linked to its mother ship and other relatives, and cousins to be discoverable, For that, you need to link your new content with your previous content. What’s important to know is Google likes it when you refer back to your own older posts, within your fresh content. It gives Google search engines more idea about what you are writing about and your readers a more comprehensive overview. It also helps to increase time on site.

The more things people want to read on your blog the better it is.

Make your posts sticky so that readers stay on your site.This is possible with good internal linking and a good site structure

How?

URI:A must watch for all Indians (especially the naysayers)

By Dr.Amrita Basu(MBBS,MS) on February 1, 2019 4

How’s the Josh? High sir!
If you try saying that with the amount of energy that Vicky Kaushal had it would be difficult.

What’s the Uri story about?

Uri: The Surgical Strike released in January 2019 is an Indian action film. It is a dramatized account of the retaliation to the 2016 Uri attack.

URI Kashmir map( wikipedia) — URI Kashmir map ( wikipedia)

The film shows the journey of Major Vihaan Singh Sherghil of the Indian Army, who led from the front to make this a success.

Some more details

A terrorist attack at Uri leaves devastating losses. The Indian Government is left wondering whether the Humanitarian agencies will condemn Pakistan? Should that be enough? What about the morale of the army jawans and their family? Don’t they deserve closure? Pakistan always does the cowardly thing. They laughingly say, what will India do? They will ban Pakistani artists and singers. This may sound funny but is always a good idea. Stop cash flow and even terrorists will have a hard time. Pakistani artists obviously pay tax in Pakistan. And we know state-funded terrorism is popular there. But I deviate.

The question was: Should India go to war or something discreet? Since Pakistan doesn’t acknowledge they have sleeper cells of terrorism they will be unable to acknowledge publicly the attack.

The interesting point: The dilemma of the Indian Government.To do or not to do.

What I loved about Uri

The movie doesn’t explain. It doesn’t give excuses. It avoids jingoism and Hindi filmi dialogues. It’s a movie with few words and deep emotions. Kudos to the scriptwriter, editor, director, the actors and all those who were brave enough to make this movie.

If you have watched the American movie Independence Day if you liked Rang De Basanti, Uri takes Bolly movies to the next level. It’s like a Bruce Willis action flick. Just better and more real. A Die Hard cousin, where everyone battles personal loss and challenges, but rises above not only for call of duty, but something as esoteric as Nationalism.

The land which feeds you and nurtured you. The mother who gave birth and held your hand now needs looking after. Will, you shut your eyes when your brothers and sisters in the army are dying or will you join them and pray for them?

In medical jargon, there’s a saying,
If a part of the body is gangrenous, you must cut it out, to save the life. Otherwise, the rest of the body rots and septicemia spreads. That’s what’s happening with Pakistan. Surgical strikes like these are necessary, to remove the gangrenous parts from our neighbor.

The child with the machine gun is a sinister picture and still saved. Because children in arms mean, there’s something wrong with the society. Collateral damage is real. Like the death of the brave brother-in-law. But what’s not acceptable is letting people think, we are so non-violent, that if you kill our brothers and sisters in their homes, we will let you sleep in peace. Bengalis worship Maa Durga because she banished evil the right way. We pray to the shakti form of the Goddess and that’s where Uri scores. Indians feel protected and safe when the Indian army is keeping guard.

We can protect our own. This is the New India,
..jo ghar mein ghusega bhi marega bhi

The josh is high, why not make the movie tax-free, just like in Uttar Pradesh? Show it to our youth.

Who made Uri outstanding?

Written and directed by debutant director Aditya Dhar.One of the most powerful debuts in recent history. Interestingly Raazi was not yet released when Vicky was chosen to be the lead role in Uri. So this was a big gamble by the production house. It was produced under RSVP Movie banner by Ronnie Screwvala. This is called talent spotting and Ronnie Screwvala is well known for this.

Vicky Kaushal as Major Vihan Singh Shergill.
Paresh Rawal as National Security Advisor Govind Bhardwaj (a character based on Ajit Doval): he keeps on breaking his phone to relieve stress!
Yami Gautam as Pallavi Sharma / Jasmine Almeida: She was good, but I rather liked Kirti Kulhari (of Indu Sarkar fame), as Seerat Kaur, an IAF Officer
Mohit Raina as Major Karan Kashyap: While I am raving about Vicky Kaushal throughout the review, Mohit Raina made a superlative Hindi film debut. Mohit Raina is the television Devon Ka Dev Mahadev and his acting in Uri is a surprise package.

The USP: Why Uri is a must watch

Excellent acting, action sequences and compactly edited. There are a few moments you can take your eyes off the screen. Watch out for Vicky Kaushal, a man who is like no hero you have seen.I am a SRK fan, I watch most of Salman’s movies and rather like Ranveer Singh. But Vicky Kaushal has an audience connect, an ability to get into a character nonchalantly that’s rare. In Raazi, he was great, but in Uri, he shines!

Let’s keep an eye open for his next. But for now, let’s pray for our armed forces and Thank God for keeping them safe.

Leprosy What You Need to Know|Sasakawa Foundation #YouAreNotAlone

By Dr.Amrita Basu(MBBS,MS) on January 28, 2019 97

Is Leprosy hereditary? No

Can Leprosy be treated? Yes

Is the treatment affordable? It’s free.

Then why are there so many people with Leprosy affected disabilities?

Here in lies the problem. That’s exactly why the Sasakawa Foundation and Youth against Leprosy are trying to change.

What are the main challenges with Leprosy?

Nippon Foundation.

Fighting leprosy: S-ILF Sasakawa India Leprosy Foundation.

What is S-ILF doing?

How are the Sasakawa foundation scholarships helping?

How can the Youth help?

10 Facts you must know about Leprosy

What are the main challenges with Leprosy?

The main challenge still is early diagnosis and treatment
Practical problems in detection. All parts of the body have to be checked in good light. But the places at the primary health care level are often lacking such facility.
The social stigma of the disease and rehabilitation
Streamlining those living with challenges, to a life with dignity.
Increasing resources toward monitoring and controlling leprosy.
Rehabilitation of the patients at the economic and social level.

LEPROSY: All you need to know

Nippon Foundation

The journey to fight and eliminate leprosy became easier when MDT(multi drug therapy) was approved by WHO. The Nippon Foundation and their chairman Yohei Sasakawa worked tirelessly towards this goal. He was chosen as the Goodwill Ambassador for Leprosy and there was no looking back. The Global Appeal to End Stigma and Discrimination Against People Affected by Leprosy happens annually across the world to spread awareness. In India, it started with S-ILF or Sasakawa India Leprosy Foundation.

Fighting leprosy: S-ILF Sasakawa India Leprosy Foundation.

In this challenging background, Sasakawa India Leprosy Foundation (S-ILF) has brought a ray of hope. Sasakawa-India Leprosy Foundation (S-ILF) established in November 2006, with inspiration from Mr. Yohei Sasakawa, WHO Goodwill Ambassador for Leprosy eradication.

What is S-ILF doing?

They are helping in mainstreaming leprosy affected persons by socio-economic inclusion and empowerment. Sasakawa-India Leprosy Foundation (S-ILF) is fighting leprosy from both ends. Fight the disease with early diagnosis and treatment. Fight the stigma, social economic issues with social, support and financial help.

Youth against Leprosy:Imagae credit Sasakawa Indian Leprosy Foundation — Youth against Leprosy: Image credit Sasakawa Indian Leprosy Foundation

How are the Sasakawa foundation scholarships helping?

The story of Shankari born to parents with leprosy is empowering. She was educated so that she could earn a living. Two of her daughter were educated and becoming nurses. But after her husband died, supporting the third one would have been difficult without Sasakawa’s scholarship.

Image credit Sasakawa Indian Leprosy Foundation:Scholarships help to go forward. — Image credit Sasakawa Indian Leprosy Foundation: Scholarships help to go forward.

The story of Anita Bhavre, who won the Rising with Dignity award in 2012. She had opened a sari shop with her friends, which they ran successfully fighting stigma. Then, later on, she became a healthcare worker. Anita’s life has always been full of challenges. . Her Grandfather and his two brothers were Leprosy affected. Anita’s father Leprosy also affected Anita’s father and the whole family was outcasted. Anita got leprosy when she was in class five. But her family being aware spotted the patch early and her treatment was started quickly. This prevented any deformity.

The story of Rakesh Das, Preparing for CA with S-ILF’s scholarship for higher studies in his own words

I got the scholarship from S-ILF to pursue my dream course in Chartered Accountancy (IPCC) from Mycom Institute due to which my life has changed. Now I can see myself as a successful individual. My goal is to support leprosy-affected children so that they can achieve their goal too.”

Kedavamma, running a livelihood project, Karim Nagar, Andhra Pradesh got a chance to become financially independednt with the help of S-ILF

In her own words,

About ten years ago, I was engaged in begging without a source of a dignified income. Then S-ILF supported me and with their financial support, I now have an independent income. I have one buffalo and two calves and I am earning a decent income with dignity.

How can the Youth help?

The Youth against Leprosy (YAL) is a program, drafted for the young generation who falls in the age group of 16 to 25 years (College Level).

By breaking down, us versus they divide, the youth can interact with youths from leprosy-affected families.

They can spread awareness about early symptoms so that people can get timely treatment

They can use various mediums like theatre, social media, blogs to spread awareness and the stories of the people who are living a life with dignity following help by SILF.

The youth can help prevent the spread of misinformation and the stigma of the disease and disability.

They can spread the story of hope of cure with timely early treatment.

They can promote inclusion and stop discrimination.

Promoting and supporting financial support services and giving access to education and finances for self-reliance, to leprosy-affected and their family

Supporting community-based rehabilitation

They can help hold the hands of those who need it most.

10 Facts you must know about Leprosy

What is Leprosy?

Leprosy Definition: It’s a chronic infectious disease caused by the bacteria Mycobacterium leprae.

How does Leprosy spread? It spreads through droplets, from the nose and mouth, during close and frequent contacts with untreated cases. Mycobacterium leprae multiplies slowly. The incubation period is five years. That means after exposure the disease may occur even five years later. There have been instances where the disease has occurred within one year and as late as 20years.

Leprosy Symptoms: The disease mainly affects the skin, peripheral nerves, mucosa of the upper respiratory tract, and the eyes. Leprosy when untreated or treated late can cause progressive and permanent damage to the skin, nerves, limbs, and eyes. This is what causes the physical stigma of leprosy.

Limiting disability needs early diagnosis and this is where awareness at the grassroots level, awareness of youth, and social awareness will help.

Early detection and treatment can cure. It can also prevent disability. Managing disability is also important,

Leprosy cure: Treatment is with multidrug therapy including Dapsone, Rifampicin, Clofazimine.

The main challenges are reaching the interiors and leprosy pockets for early detection, treatment, and limiting disability.

Increased surveillance for disease and strong commitment for monitoring continuing treatment

The Indian parliament passed a historical amendment. There were 119 laws that discriminated against leprosy-affected. Leprosy was shockingly a reason for divorce. It was wrongly thought to be an incurable disease. But now that change is made. Then, next change needs to start with you and the youth of India.

Remember these two dates

29^th January Youth festival to raise awareness amongst the youth and to eliminate stigmata

30^th January World Leprosy Day
Do your part in spreading the word. Share and help spread awareness

Conclusion

Leprosy has a treatment to cure and prevent disability. It should never be pushed to darkness. Let us come forward together to share the stories of those who are fighting all odds. Everyone has a right to a dignified life and living. Together we can help them.

The Doctor Died after reviving a Newborn! #WATWB

By Dr.Amrita Basu(MBBS,MS) on January 27, 2019 15

This doctor died after reviving a baby! Life and death are destined. The untimely death of a colleague always leaves me sad.

The doctor who you met at the conference last week, the friend you liked on Facebook, the college friend who ended his life, how are they doing? Are they in your prayers? The people who are taking care of the health of others should be able to take care of their health. Overwork helps no one.

This news made me cry. Minutes after reviving a newborn Dr. Bibhas Khutia collapsed on the labor room floor. It was at Patanda Primary Health Centre in East Midnapore. He suffered a massive heart attack, and when taken to Panskura super-specialty he was declared dead.

On this WATWB I want to appeal to all those who are serving others, don’t forget that your health comes first. If you are not healthy you can’t help anyone.

We miss you, Doctor.

On this #WATWB post, I am sharing this news hope you help one person to choose health.Dr.Khutia served till his last breath. Let’s help all our loved ones to live well.

Wellness needs eight aspects in complete balance. When any of the eight aspects are disturbed, we collapse.

So what are the Eight Mantras of wellness or the WellnessSutra?

Physical Health
Emotional Health
Intellectual Health
Spiritual Health
Social Health
Vocational Health
Financial Health
Environmental Health

Tomorrow I will tell you more about this. Till then ask yourself this question: are you well?
