My name is Usha Bi, and I’m 65 years old. I lost my husband many years ago, and I live with a leg disability. Life has been very difficult. The most painful part was when all four of my children left me. My only son, the one I hoped would care for me, would beat me when he was drunk. I felt broken,physically and emotionally. I was alone, unloved, and it felt like no one in the world cared.
There were many days when the pain in my body and heart felt too heavy to bear. I often looked at an old photo of my cousins, remembering the happy times when our family was close. Those memories gave me the strength to keep going, even when I felt like giving up.
Things began to change when SKSS reached out to me. They listened to my story and reminded me that I wasn’t invisible. Through their support and kind words, I started to believe in myself again. They gave me hope and the encouragement to live with dignity.
Today, I live alone and work as a house help. It’s not an easy life, but it’s a life I choose with pride. I don’t want to depend on anyone. I have learned that even in deep loneliness, you can still be happy for yourself. I now know I have value , and that makes me feel strong again.
Her story is a powerful reminder that true courage is found in those who refuse to give up. Usha Bi may be fighting life’s battles alone, but her spirit remains unshaken, inspiring everyone around her to face their own struggles with the same quiet determination.
