Muskan – A doctors gave 100 hours to live!
Muskan was born with a hole in her heart, under-developed lungs, partial paralysis, and several other disorders. Doctors said she wouldn’t live for more than 100 hours. Muskan is now 16 years old and an inspiration to thousands. Born in Ahmedabad, India, Muskan was taken to New Zealand when she was just four because the kind of medical care and facilities, she needed to be were not easily available in the country then. Muskan found adjusting to a new school and environment difficult. She would spend time reading since she had nothing else to do. She was even told that she would never be able to swim. Today Muskan swims at an advanced level. During one of her regular visits to the physiotherapy centers, Muskan found out that the center needed an exercise bike but did not have enough funds for one.
She came back home and decided to write a book to raise funds to buy the bike ‑ she was ready with the first draft of the book in just a day. Muskan has written many pieces for local publications and even written her autobiography, I Dream, to inspire other kids with disabilities.
