| Less than 24 hours after she was rescued from the house that she had not left for six months, 43-year-old Anuradha Bahl died in a Noida hospital.
Her sister, Sonali, younger by five years, has not been told about Anuradha's death. Given her own fragile mental and physical condition, doctors want to protect Sonali from any news that could add to her stress. "She is under acute depression. We are treating her and hopefully all will be well. If any psychiatric help needed, it will be provided," said doctors attending to Sonali at Kailash Hospital.
Both sisters left their house in Noida's Sector 29 yesterday for the first time in six months. They were rescued by the police and social activists after neighbours complained about a stench outside the Bahls' flat.
Both sisters were discovered dehydrated and starving. Anuradha, lying on the couch, was a bundle of bones and was carried out by the police into an ambulance. Doctors say she had not eaten in three months
The sisters lost their father in a car accident in 1995. Their mother died soon after. They lived in their family home in Noida with their younger brother, Vipin Bahl, till he got married. After that, his wife and he did not contact Sonali and Anuradha.
At the hospital today, he broke down when asked about what killed Anuradha. "I don't know about it... maybe heart failure. She was alright this morning. I was here all night; I was sitting outside the Intensive Care Unit."
"Anuradha's mouth was bleeding. She was shifted to the ICU but inspite of all medical efforts, we were not able to resuscitate here. And, she took her last breath around 8 am," said Dr Amit, the Chief Medical Officer at Kailash Hospital.
