Newly Wed Couple’s Temple Visit proves tragic
A Vikhroli based newly married couple Prajakta Kharat-Dadas, and Vaibhav Dadas temple visit
turned tragic after the family met with an accident while returning on Monday. While the bride has been admitted to Fortis Hospital in critical condition her mother-in-law lost her life. The groom, who is hospitalised but out of danger, is struggling to meet medical expenses.
Prajakta Kharat-Dadas, 24, and Vaibhav Dadas, 30, who recently tied the knot, were on a trip to Satara with Vaibav’s parents and uncle. As per Dadas, an engineer at Deloitte, they had just got married and had gone to visit a temple in Satara. However, while heading back, their car skidded off the road, breaching the barricade and going off the ghat section. All he could remember after that is he was in hospital.
According to Vaibhav his uncle and father were seated in the front and had worn seat belts, which saved their lives. His mother, wife, and he were seated at the back. I has a habit of gripping the handle above the door, which is probably what saved him. But, because the car door broke, his mother Ujwala was thrown out and was pronounced dead on arrival at the hospital, while Prajakta is currently fighting for her life at Fortis Hospital. Meanwhile, Vaibhav and his father who sustained multiple bruises all over their bodies have been advised bed rest.
The hospital’s statement revealed the severity of Prajakta’s injuries. “…she had slipped into a coma prior to her transfer from another hospital.
Upon assessment at Fortis Hospital, Mulund, she was diagnosed with a severe head injury, chest trauma, blood accumulation in the chest and abdomen, as well as lacerations of the spleen and liver.
A decompression surgery was performed to address swelling in the posterior cranial fossa.
Prajakta’s current condition is stable but she is sedated. She is scheduled to undergo a CT scan to assess her brain health, which will determine the subsequent steps in her treatment. “Recovery is expected to be a lengthy process, involving several weeks in the hospital followed by rehabilitation therapy upon discharge,” read the statement.
As per her sister, Deepali Kharat they need around Rs 24 lakh for her treatment and are relying on crowdfunding for this and have urged all our family members to share a help message on social media. The amount needed for Prajakta’ s treatment is Rs 24
Lakhs.
