Amitabh Bachchan Reflects On Life After Hospitalisation
In his latest personal blog, Amitabh Bachchan described the often-overlooked struggles that begin after a patient leaves the hospital. He suggested that returning home can be more demanding than the treatment itself, with recovery affecting a person physically, mentally and practically.
He wrote, ".. in Hospital in a surgery and in the ICU, under the care of proficient Doctors and medical Staff .. a discharge .. and a homecoming ..this homecoming period is the most difficult phase .. physically, psychologically and practically .... you are a revered Champion and one day a defeat stares at you .. this is the most difficult phase of your life ..”
The actor further reflected on how individuals respond differently to adversity.
He added, “.. some brave it .. some succumb .. they that strive and be brave ever remain Champions .. they that do not , get reconciled and live, exist in the past glory .. a choice each makes individually ..nothing wrong by either ..be well be happy ..(sic)"
Notably, Bachchan did not specify whether the thoughts were inspired by his own circumstances.
