“It happened very suddenly… I was admitted to a hospital here in India. I was quite scared in the initial stages. My fear was about the facilities and language problems found in hospitals in India,” the letter read.
But “everything here was very well-organised”, the patient wrote, praising the Indian doctors.
“I was very scared in the hospital but everyone’s attitude towards people who came from China was very helpful and positive.”
