Q6. Translate the following paragraph into Urdu. 5X8=40
1. It was beginning of my profession as a nurse. I worked in the intensive care unit (ICU) of neurology ward. As a young professional, I wished to save
the world. I was excited to see patients making quick recoveries from devastating accidents disorder.
2. One day, standing at the bedside of a young bus-accident victim, I wondered if she could make the same recovery as other. Hira had received
severe head and spinal injuries as she was hit by a speeding bus while crossing a busy road. O took her lifeless arms in my hands and tried to do
several exercises on her but in vain. Also, I made her young sister come and talk to her, thinking that the voice of a near and dear one might activate
the nearly dead neurons. She could see but not talk.
3. A fellow nurse came near me and asked, “Rahila, what are you doing? Fighting a lost battle?” I was. Shocked at first to hear a colleague making a
hopeless comment. Then I replied, “I’m trying to make her brain process her sister’s voice. Also, I am doing my best to ensure that her arms and legs
get proper exercise. This might help her walk like a normal person.” Meanwhile, a senior doctor on duty, walked in.
4. I went to the senior nurse and told her that I wanted to help this patient and work with her more closely. The senior nurse looked at me with utter
surprise and remarked that she had orders from the doctor in-charge to shift her to the general ward. The doctors thought that she was a hopeless case
and the bed must be spared for other patients. I was shocked to hear this. The patient’s family also requested me to help them fight the case.
Something needed to be done.
5. I continued to work on Hira. But she was not making much recovery. I felt as helpless as she was to see her lie on bed in a miserable state. Could I
be able to justify my stance before the senior doctors? I did not lose hope. I continued to work with patience and kept doing exercise with her.
Gradually, I could see her making a slight recovery. One day. I was thrilled to see her lift her little finger. All was not lost!
6. I was sent on a three months training course to Karachi. I made all possible attempts to leave my patient in good hands. I returned after three
months to see my patient’s bed taken up by another. My feet froze to the ground. I did not have the courage to ask, “what happened?” As I stood near
the bed with several questions popping in my mind, I felt a gentle pat on my shoulder.
7. She walked on crutches, which she would leave in a month. I was so glad that I had done those exercises on her to keep her limbs in motion. I was
glad that my efforts bore fruit. But most of all, I was happy that Allah Almighty had helped me win a lost battle.
8. She and her family had entered into a considerable bond of friendship with me. I was humbled by their sense of gratitude towards me. I felt a sense
of renewed strength in me. “Where there is a will is a way.” I was proud to be a nurse.
