who discover the redium?

 do you know?

In a small town in Poland there lived a poor girl, her name was Mania Sklodowska, she lived by tutoring, at the age of 19 she tutored a ten-year-old girl from a rich family.  's elder brother became interested in her, she too became attracted to him, so they both decided to get married, but when the boy's mother found out, she got upset.  "I brought," he called out and gathered all the servants together and shouted, "Look at this girl who has only one frock to wear," who has holes in the soles of her shoes and who only has a good meal once in 24 hours.  "This girl wants to be my son's wife. She is cherishing the desire to be called my daughter-in-law." All the servants laughed and the lady closed the door and went inside.  It was as if someone had dumped a bucket of acid on her. She was seized with a deep sense of humiliation and, standing on that porch, she decided that she would earn so much respect in life, so much fame that the whole of Poland  It will be known by its name.


 It was 1891. She came to Paris from Poland. She entered the university and started studying physics. She studied 20 hours a day.  She used to spend only one shilling a day; her room did not have electricity, gas or even a ring of coals; she spent the nights of the snowy seasons shivering; when the cold became unbearable, she took off all her clothes.  She used to lay half on the bed and lie down with half of the blanket on top. Still, if there was no food, she would drop all her books and even her chair on top of her.  "She didn't eat." This was a symptom of convalescence. She fainted while sitting on the bed, but when she regained consciousness, she consoled herself by calling her fainting as sleep. "One day she fainted in class."  After examining her, the doctor said, "You need a glass of milk instead of medicine." She married a scientist named Pirie in the university itself.  The situation was miserable like 'At the time of marriage, the total assets of both of them were two cycles.' She reached her PhD during this world of poverty.  It was a difficult and impossible task, but she succeeded. During the experiments, she discovered an element that produces two million times more light than uranium and its rays.  Wood, stone, copper, and iron go through everything in the world.''He named it radium.''It was a huge explosion in science.'People asked for proof of radium.'Mania and Pyri took a dilapidated cover.  whose roof was safe and neither was the floor and they continued to melt iron in this premises for four years. They alone melted 8 tons of iron and obtained radium equal to a pea from it.  Be it cold or cold on their bodies' The poisonous fumes of the furnace pierced Manya's lungs but she persisted in her work 'She did not give up till the whole of science lay at her feet.  Got it.  This radium brought the message of life to millions and millions of cancer patients. What we call radiation therapy today was the invention of Manya.  She was the only scientist in the world to receive the Nobel Prize twice in her lifetime, whose life has been the subject of 30 films and hundreds of books, and which today makes science students take off their hats when the name of Poland is mentioned.  When the world offered Madame Curie billions of dollars for this invention, what did she say?  She said, "I will give this discovery to the company that will treat an old woman in Poland for free." Yes!  The rich Polish woman who once took Curie by the ear and kicked him out was suffering from cancer at that time and she was on her death bed at that time.
