What would your reaction be, if your father or mother suggested that they want to put an end to your life, though you know that you are the apple of their eye???

If they go a step further, seeking legal permission for the same. Wouldn't you feel devastated?

Indeed that is exactly what happened to Suriya Prabakaran who suffered from Glanzmann's disease, a rare disease which affects one in a million, which is characterized by an inability of the blood to clot. So he required frequent blood transfusion that his father who worked as a carpenter could not afford. HIS FATHER SOUGHT EUTHANASIA AND MADE AN APPEAL IN THE COURT.

After reading this in the paper, Dr. J.S. Rajkumar called Suriya Prabakaran's family, offered to treat the boy and subsequently performed this surgery and further treatment, free of charge which would have otherwise incurred an expense of 3.25lakhs. Meanwhile, JK Cement and Rotary Club also offered to educate him and support him. Ironically, about an year after the surgery the hospital received a call from Suriya informing that his father, who had filed an appeal for euthanasia, had himself expired. But he is surging forth doing the role of family head, which comprises of his step mother and a younger sister.
