Gurwinder Singh’s story reflects the hardships faced by families living with poverty, mental health challenges, and a lack of support. His mother, who was struggling with her own difficulties and had very limited resources, was deeply afraid that her son might wander away or come to harm if he left the house. Believing that keeping him confined was the only way to protect him, she kept him in chains, not because she did not love him, but she did not know how else to care for him safely. When the resources from Apna Farz Sewa Society arrived, they found Gurwinder living in extremely poor conditions, with very limited food, hygiene, and care. His mother could afford very little and often fed him simple, raw and unseasoned greens such as barseem and saag, along with whatever little food was available. She was initially reluctant to let him go because of her deep emotional attachment to him, but the resources patiently explained that their aim was to provide him with proper treatment and support. Eventually, she agreed Gurwinder was taken to safe environment where he received nutritious food, medical treatment, proper hygiene, attention and affection. With regular care and support, his condition gradually improved. After his health showed positive improvement, Gurwinder was eventually sent back to his family, giving both him and his mother a renewed sense of hope. His story reminds us that compassion and support can make a meaningful difference in the lives of people facing mental health challenges, while also showing how families need guidance and resources to care for their loved once with dignity.
