Case Studies
Kumaresan
Before the accident, I was active and independent. After losing my mobility, I spent many years confined indoors, often left alone without support. Even basic needs like toileting became difficult—there were moments when no one was around to help, and I didn’t know what to do. It was painful, both physically and emotionally, to live that way.
With the Sahayatha wheelchair’s inbuilt cleansing system, I am now able to manage my hygiene on my own. Today, I feel a sense of freedom—I can step outside, travel, and experience life again with confidence and independence.

I once managed my daily life with ease, but a spinal cord injury made even the simplest activities difficult. Toileting became a major challenge, and I had to depend entirely on my wife for both care and finances. Before Sahayatha, there was no stable income, and the burden on her was overwhelming.
With the Sahayatha wheelchair, I am now able to manage my Cleansing needs independently. This reduced her caregiving burden, allowing her to focus on supporting our family, while I regained dignity and control over my life.

Growing up with polio, I was always dependent on others for the toileting and mainly cleansing part. As a woman, asking for help with Cleansing even to family was especially difficult and uncomfortable, and it often made me feel vulnerable. It was something I silently struggled with for years.
With the Sahayatha wheelchair’s integrated cleansing system, I am now able to manage my hygiene completely on my own. This has given me privacy, confidence, and a deep sense of relief—I truly feel blessed to experience this level of independence.

Before cancer, I was able to manage my daily life independently. Losing my leg changed that completely, and even simple routines like toileting became difficult and often required help. During the day, when no one was at home, I had to wait for someone to return just to assist me with cleaning, which was both physically and emotionally challenging.
With the Sahayatha wheelchair’s integrated cleansing system, I am now able to manage my hygiene on my own. This change brought back a sense of normalcy, dignity, and peace in my everyday life.
Vidhya
After a tragic fall into a well, I suffered a severe spinal cord injury that changed my life completely. I lost my mobility, independence, and the support of my married family. From then on, my single parent father became my entire support system, standing by me every single day.
Among all the challenges, managing personal hygiene was the most difficult—it constantly reminded me of how much independence I had lost.
Everything changed when I started using the Sahayatha wheelchair. Its integrated cleansing system gave me something I had been missing for so long—privacy, control, and dignity. For the first time after my injury, I could take care of myself with confidence.
That change gave me the strength to rebuild my life. Today, I participate in wheelchair fashion shows, marathons, and have secured a work-from-home job. I feel independent, empowered, and hopeful again.
