Family and Farming: The Backbone of Thakor’s Life
Thakor's family, comprising his wife Vinubenthakor, two sons Pratapasih and Narendrasih, and his married daughter Anuben, has been his pillar of strength. Pratapasih, a B.A. graduate, and Narendrasih, who has completed Standard 10, both assist in the family’s agricultural work. Thakor's brother, Vikramsih, is the President of the Taluka Panchayat in Siddhpur, providing a solid support network.
The Catalyst for Change: LN4 Prosthetic Hand
The turning point in Thakor's life came a year ago when he received the LN4 prosthetic hand from the Ratnanidicharitable Trust in Mumbai. This remarkable device is not just a tool but a beacon of hope, symbolizing how adversity can be turned into triumph.
Embracing Life's Joys with the LN4 Hand
Before the LN4 hand, Thakor struggled with daily tasks, let alone farming. However, this revolutionary prosthetic has empowered him to reclaim his independence. Today, he can perform all his farming duties efficiently, drive tractors, and manage agricultural tasks with ease. The LN4 hand has given Thakor a new lease on life, allowing him to embrace each day with renewed vigor.
The Impact on Thakor's Agricultural Output
Thakor’s determination, combined with the functionality of the LN4 hand, has significantly improved his agricultural productivity. He manages 80 bighas of land, operates two water bores, and owns two tractors. Over four months, his farming activities yield seven to eight lakhs of rupees, showcasing the profound impact of his regained abilities.
"With my LN4 hand, every sunrise brings new dreams, and every sunset, a day of victories. I'm not just surviving; I'm thriving!" - Thakor Vidhumsingh.
