The Patient Who Lived

"Just minor health issues, right?"

That's what I thought at first—until it turned into a long, gruelling journey. The medicines I had to take, the things I lost in order to heal, and then the health issues resurfacing, making these two years feel endless.

My whole journey, summarised in just a few pages of hospital files, felt unfair—so here I am, presenting the real hospital diaries.

What happens when life takes an unexpected turn at seventeen? When hospitals replace classrooms, and survival becomes the only exam you're forced to pass? The Patient Who Lived: Not the Doctor's Notes—The Patient's Voice is a book from a true patient's perspective, sharing real hospital moments and the life experiences of a young girl who suffered from abdominal tuberculosis, underwent treatment, and yet again faced further health challenges. The experience of being cut open and stitched back to life—a journey with ups and downs, filled with strength and the many emotions that come with being a patient.

This is the story of the patient who lived through it all in two years—written by 19-year-old author, Aditi Hayaran.

About the Author

My name is Aditi Hayaran, and I write under the pen name Larkspur. Born in 2006, I am a young poet and writer with a deep love for words and a strong desire to create. I am constantly learning and growing as I explore the world of poetry and storytelling, and I aspire to share my voice and stories with others.

My experiences, observations, and imagination are the wellspring of my poems and stories. Through my writing, I attempt to capture the essence of fleeting moments, blending the sweet, sour, and bitter experiences of life. I invite you to journey through these moments with me.
