"Three years ago, I got infected with Tuberculosis and I was under treatment for around six months. During this time, I was selfless and couldn't carry my daily chores thereby relying on others for help. The side-effects for medication of TB was so severe that I was in pain all the time. For me this is the biggest hardship I have ever experienced. "
