How did Anandibai become a doctor in spite of the obstacles she faced? |
|
Answer» In those days there were no women doctors in our country. Anandibai’s son died of some disease. She decided to become a doctor. She succeeded in getting a seat in a university in the U.S.A. She went alone and stayed with the Carpenters. She tried to adapt herself to the new conditions. But, she could not tolerate the cold winter. Her room did not have a good fireplace, it discharged smoke when lit. She had to live in the same room for two years because, no one was ready to rent a room to a brown Hindu girl. The cold and smoke affected her health. Her health gradually worsened. She managed to complete her medical course successfully in spite of all these obstacles. |
