(A MENTALLY CHALLENGED CHILD)

*************************************************

About Me:

I, Miss Rashmi Rekha Sahu, aged 28 years am mentally challenged and suffering from Trisomy Syndrome by birth. Being mentally challenged, I was unable to express my desire / will in front of others. However, my parents have taken care and treatment at their best. In consultation with Pediatricians and Psychiatricians, my parents have tried their best to provide me opportunities to grow at place and put me in “HOME AND HOPE, ROURKELA”, a school for mentally challenged children’s for education at the early age. With the guidance and support from my parents and teachers special efforts has been put to explore my ability to lead life with mentally challenged. In the process my parents and teachers came to know that I was interested in dance and sports. Accordingly special emphasis has been given to train me in classical dance “ODISSI” and engaged a dance teacher. I used to practice dance two to three hours daily in home and slowly improve a lot like a general ward. Similarly in school, the sports teacher took special care for me in the field of sports. Thanks to my parents and my teachers for their restless effort and contribution to bring me at this stage. Presently, I am going to Vocational Training Centre of Parents Association for the Welfare of the Mentally Challenged wing in HOME AND HOPE.

My RESUME and my PARTICIPATION AND ACHIEVEMENTS in dance and sports being as follows:
