There are well-established centres across the country who have acknowledged that a patient can get severely traumatized due to his illness, thus needing psychological, social, and spiritual care. It also involves<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">\u00a0<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">spreading awareness about the illness, and early detection of symptoms. However, once the presence of illness in a patient is confirmed, the centre cannot issue any medicinal treatment. It only aims to provide comfort and care to the patients so that they can lead their life of illness with dignity.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Kishore Rao was inspired to open<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">\u00a0Bangalore Hospice Trust \u2013\u00a0<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Karunasharaya<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">,\u00a0<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">t<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">hat he claims to be the first residential palliative care centre of India\u00a0<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">for the terminally ill, after his mother\u2019s suffering and\u00a0death by Cancer.\u00a0In an interview with The Better India, Rao says that,<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">\u201cThe genesis of this entire thing stems from a personal loss \u2013 my mother passed away from cancer many years ago, and it stayed somewhere in my head. It was with that intent that I started working towards providing support and palliative care to terminally ill cancer patients.\u201d<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">In 1986, Rao first set up Indian Cancer Society in Karnataka to create awareness about Cancer. He worked in a comforting corporate job; however, he felt true joy in spreading awareness about Cancer and setting up screening camps for early detection of symptoms. <strong>During his social service with the\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><strong>Governing Council of the Kidwai Memorial Institute<\/strong><span data-contrast=\"auto\"><strong>, he realized that before the disease could claim a patient\u2019s life, they lose the battle early on mentally<\/strong>. As Cancer grows, one becomes increasingly dependent on their loved ones for even basic tasks of life such as going to the washroom. It is mentally agonizing to first deal with painful treatments, and alongside gulp down the embarrassment of being dependent, fight the helplessness, and feel like a burden on your loved ones, both financially and emotionally. Besides, most families get so caught up in dealing with the illness of the patient, that they fail to assure him mentally, and cater to his emotional needs.\u00a0<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The situation is further atrophying\u00a0in families belonging to weaker economic and social classes.<strong> It is upsetting that many Cancer patients are diagnosed with severe clinical depression that is more often a result of their thoughts about themselves, and environment than the disease itself.\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Hence, in 1992 Kishore took early retirement from the corporate world to dedicate himself fulltime to fill this gap.\u00a0<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">\u201cMy full-time job commitment at that time did not allow me to devote time and energy to pursue this, and I thought that early retirement was the way forward,\u201d he said. He categories Cancer in three stages- first that deals with awareness, and early detection, second is the medicinal treatment, and third is when either the patient is cured, or medicinal science has failed to cure him. Kishore Rao does not interfere with the patient\u2019s treatment since he holds no medical expertise. He is more concerned about the preventive or primitive care, and the palliative care where the patient has lost all hope of life.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\"><strong>In 1994, along with the help of\u00a0Indian Cancer Society and the Rotary Club of Indira Nagar in Bangalore, Rao established a charitable trust- Bangalore Hospice Trust, possibly India\u2019s first residential palliative care centre.<\/strong> They initially started with home visits.\u00a0<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">\u201cCaring for the patients in their own homes was what we thought was the best solution. In less than 6 months we were able to put together a team of a nurse and a counsellor.\u201d They travelled in auto-rickshaws to visit patients at their home and assist them.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">During this time, no hospital or charitable trust showed major interest in funding the centre, possibly because it was first of its kind. Meanwhile, Rao further decided to scale the operations and started looking for donations. He had come to Mumbai for some work, where he headed to Tata Head Office without knowing anyone or having any prior appointment. Luck favoured him, and the Executive director attended him speaking for a good two hours. <strong>He came back from Mumbai, and a week later he received an intimation that he had received a donation of Rs. 10 lakhs from the Tatas.<\/strong> This was a huge boost to his morale, as well as his centre. A good deed always attracts good-doers.\u00a0<strong>The retired Chief Secretary of Karnataka joined the Hospice trust after his retirement, and he was instrumental in convincing the government to lease out the land on a long lease basis to build the residential facility.<\/strong> Post this, he came in contact with\u00a0<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">(the late) Tara\u00a0<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Chandavarkar<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">, a pioneer architect who offered her services to build the infrastructure free of cost.
