5.I was on my way to work on a two-wheeler one day when a truck rammed (撞上) into me and completely crushed my leg.It wasn't the driver's fault----there was a pillar that blocked his view.
People around immediately took me to the hospital and even though it happened around 9:30am I was only operated on at 5:30pm.The doctors tried to save my leg,but after a few days it got infected and it had to be amputated (截肢).When the doctor told me,I asked him,"Why did you take so long?I knew for a while that this would happen."
What got me through all this suffering was acceptance----that this is my fate,and now I can either choose to cry about it,or take it positively and push myself …I chose the latter.In fact,when people used to come to visit me in the hospital and get emotional,I would tell them jokes to make them laugh!
So I took the physiotherapy (物理療法),and began to learn how to walk all over again.My biggest fear was that I wouldn't be able to play badminton,which has been my passion since childhood----but somehow even while I was facing difficulty in walking …I could still play.
I began winning corporate badminton tournaments,and on the suggestion of one of my amputee friends,I decided to try out a national level.I went on to win several medals at the national level,and this year I won silver in the Para Badminton World Championship held in England.I've trained for five hours a day,while doing my job as a software engineer,almost completed my training in scuba diving and travelled pretty much all over India.
When people ask me,"How do you do so much?"I just ask one question,"What's stopping you?"
