But the PGI team, with their constant medical and psychological support, helped me to be victorious and come out of this near-death-like situation. I am deeply touched by the care and compassion. In fact, no words are enough to express my gratitude to the PGI team for giving me this second lease of life,” said Sheela, Carmel Convent School attendant, who was discharged from the Neuro Ward of the Nehru Hospital, PGI, on Monday morning.
