Respective Community Mobilizer suggested her to get admission in SAM corner of Moulvibazar Sadar Hospital but she did not agreed in that time. By this time Sarmin’s condition becoming worsen day by day.
However due to continuous counselling and motivation Sarmin’s mother finally agreed and admitted her children on 14 July 2018. After seven day therapeutic treatment Sarmin achieved discharge criteria and released from hospital. It was very hard for Jesmin Begum to treat her children keeping in hospital as her family is very poor and lives on hand to mouth.

Now Sarmin is out of danger. Jesmin Akter in also now happy with her children and her vegetable garden.
