When my mother-in-law spent time in the hospital after a cancer diagnosis, her three daughters all were there for her. They helped keep track of medical information, spoke with her doctors, brought her treats and lifted her spirits.
For family caregivers, the end of visiting hours means a chance to go home, to rest, to recharge. But for many families in India, there's a harsh reality. They've traveled many miles to bring a loved one to a big city public hospital in the hope of finding first-rate attention. If they are needy, financial help may be available for healthcare. But they may not be able to afford a place to stay. So they camp out on the sidewalks outside ... sleeping on blankets with their belongings around them.
This week we share the stories of some of these families.
