Mother's love

Here is another story of a boy, named Tonoy, who was suffering from Muscular Dystrophy and had suffered from gait disorder from early ages. When he was detected to be suffering from the irreversible disease, his mother, an women of immense strength and innumerable patience accepted the truth with equanimity and commendable spirit. She has chalked out a plan to enroll Tonoy in a school and Tonoy started his education with the help from his mother who was his constant companion. Since they didn't have a car, Tonoy's mom used to carry him and take him to school in a rickshaw. Tonoy was extremely bright and always fared good in class and his mother had dreamt about him and keen on giving him the best education despite all the difficulties. With advancing age, Tonoy's condition has worsened and his mom with her characteristic strength took the emotional as well as physical hardship in her strides and from early morning, right from feeding, bathing, reading, and dressing Tonoy, she used to carry some 60 kg heavy Tonoy to the rickshaw everyday and go with him to put him in school. Then it was time for Tonoy to appear for the board exam and with mom as his constant support he came out with flying colours securing more than 70% in the exam. It was a tremendous feat for a boy who started losing sensation of his muscles and even holding the pen had been an effort for him. The most spectacular thing about this utterly moving display of love is the fact that all this while, Tonoy's mom made a documentary about her time spent with this special child and i got the opportunity to see the movie. Not only me but the whole of the audience was moved to tears, to see a mom's heavenly and undying love for her son. Tonoy died 3 years back but through his mom's loving care, he he lived life in the best possible way..
