i think the really poor Indians are definitely far far better than those middle-class city dwellers that can migrate elsewhere..................
An Indian man carried his ill and pregnant wife on his back for a day-long trek to the nearest town, only to discover that their baby was dead.
The tribal man, named as Ayyappan, decided to seek urgent medical help for his six-months pregnant wife Sudha after she developed a fever, her body swelled up and she began convulsing.
When tribal medicine failed to work, and with the nearest doctor 25 miles away, the devoted husband decided that rather than leave his sick wife at home by herself while he sought help, he would carry her there on his back.
Ayyappan, who lives deep in the hilly Konni forests in Pathanamthitta district in Kerala, said: 'I had no other way but to carry her to Kokkathode, a town nearby.
'We started early in the morning when it was raining heavily, but I was more concerned about wild elephants.'
They reached Kokkathode in the evening, and were then taken by jeep to Pathanamthitta District Hospital, and then Kottayam Medical College Hospital, where his wife saw a doctor and was scanned.
The devastated young woman, who had suffered complications as a result of severe malnutrition that had also affected her kidneys, had a normal delivery and is now recovering in hospital, Dr Roy said.
He said that while the couple' unborn child had died, the husband's actions had saved his wife's life.
The couple, who told doctors at the hospital that they had no money, are being looked after by a non-governmental organisation operating locally.
