Mangaluru: Martha Martin Islas, a 24-year-old Spanish woman who had sustained multiple injuries while climbing a hill at Gokarna, left the city on Thursday, May 14 fully recovered.
Martha, a dancer with a master’s degree in psychology, had arrived in India on January 9. She had landed in Kolkata and had reached Gokarna on February 8.
There, on February 25, while climbing a hill between Om beach and Half Moon beach she slipped and fell and fractured her hand and legs and sustained injuries to her back.
A Bengaluru tourist, Sukesh, came to her help then. He along with Nirmala Jain and her husband brought her to the city’s Tejaswini Hospital where Martha underwent four surgeries.
Martha’s mother, Dr Diana Islas, arrived at the city February 29.
After her last surgery on April 2, both mother and daughter were to return to Spain. However, due to the beginning of the lockdown on March 23, they had to extend their stay here.
During the more than a month-long stay, both of them imbibed a lot of Mangaluru and Tulu Nadu in them. Both expressed their gratitude to Nirmala Jain for providing her house to them for their stay.
