Laxman Dusa was a happily married, helping and humble person until he met his nemesis in "LOCKED-IN SYNDROME" that made him paralyzed in all his voluntary muscles. He suffered a major STROKE in his brain-stem due to a blood clot on Dec 9 2010.

He is an active mind trapped inside an unresponsive body constantly fighting, with his shear will-power and support from his family, friends and well-wishers.

He is currently undergoing Rehab Therapies in Mt. Sinai Rehab center.

  • Best of luck and thanks for sharing this video. I'm currently studying neuroscience with the intention to do stroke research.

  • Hi Everyone,

    I am Madhu, Laxman's wife. Thanks for all your wishes and prayers. We need lot more prayers for Laxman's recovery. He is slowly gaining strength in his neck and can swallow puree foods slowly. Please keep praying. Thanks.

  • God please heal this person. When I see this video I felt the pain of him and the person who loves him especially his wife.. Please stay strong with your husband God would heal him definitely.. God Bless You.. Everything Happens for a reason..
