Rimdro and Medication
Tashi Gyeltshen
A schoolgirl, Dechen, in her teens, falls ill. Born to the peasants of the remote village of Thongkhar, her parents still dream and follow the footsteps of paying their care for her treatment with ancestral ritualistic performance called Rimdro. Modern method of medication hardly catches their attention and beliefs to cure their daughter's illness though it has been a recent development which took place in their village.
The precarious health of Dechen swings between the patriarchal idiosyncrasy of her father Penjor and her parents' lukewarm belief in treating her illness with the method of modern medication. But does Dechen recover her illness in the end by performing Rimdro? Do her parents learn that they should have taken her for some medication?
