'Music has helped me regain some of my identity'

Newsday

Available for over a year

A year ago Ripu Bhatia, a young New Zealander, was studying journalism in Sydney, Australia. Then he got a form of meningitis so severe that he ended up losing his arms, his legs and parts of his face. He's told Âé¶¹Éç Newsday how playing the guitar and the piano is now helping him cope with his traumatic life. (Picture: Ripu Bhatia playing blues on his guitar. Credit: Satvinder Bhatia)
