Arrival of my angel Gaurav

Nine months of pregnancy, the highs and lows ... fear of reports and excitement of scans make a woman impatient to see her baby;whom she has nourished throughout the pregnancy days.

I was no different. It was seventh of November. The clock struck four am in the morning and some unusual cramps woke me up from my sleep. Though the due date was still a week away but my heart told me that it was time !

I had an appointment for a stress test at the hospital. I reached there sharp at 9 am and was taken to a quite room with various equipments set up to help a lady deliver her baby. A nurse tied a belt around me and a radio like machine started echoing a musical sound lub dub lub dub it was my baby's heart beat and every time the sound filled the silent room my anxiety and fears pumped up. A report was handed over to me, which I later discussed with my gynaecologist and she advised me to get admitted. 

The pains were not very strong and constant, they came for a short while and disappeared. I was confused about getting admitted. I thought of buying time and discussing it with family. I came back home and called up my husband and mother in law and we came up to a conclusion that I shall wait till evening if pains persist I would get admitted in the hospital.

As the day progressed the pains geared up. They were more frequent and stronger. I went straight to the hospital and was admitted immediately. The night wasn't easy nurses and doctors kept a check on baby position and heart beat. Amidst all this the night snailed and the date changed to 8 of November 2016. 

I was mentally prepared that I will have to undergo a c section and welcome my baby in this world. My family my husband everyone was around excited and eagerly waiting for this little new member of our family. Around 11.30 am I was taken to operation theatre and after the doses of anaesthesia, I was numb to the surgery but my heart felt every moment. Every second paced my heart beat. The room was very cold and I could feel the shivers; a mixed result of anxiety and air conditioner. I could hear doctors converse among themselves," in few moments your baby will be here " they said. In spite of being under the surgical knives I managed a smile from cheek to cheek.

Uaaa uaaa uaaa the musical first sound of my little one. The doctors announced that I was blessed with a baby boy and I didn't want to wait even for a second to have him in my arms. Medical examination and other things kept my baby away for some more minutes and then he was brought to me wrapped in green cotton cloth all red and so warm as I kissed his forehead a tear rolled out of my eyes. There in that moment i thanked God for this blessing in my life. I thanked him for letting me live this moment and experience this miracle of bringing another life into this world.

Emotional Cancer

Image
Today world is remembering today's day as World Cancer Day. Most of you who are reading about this must be having some emotional connection or someone you know who is or was fighting cancer at some point in life. For me it was a transformational journey. I suffered emotional cancer.  I know, medical science identifies no diease as such, but when cancer has taken over someone beloved you are affected by it.  I was! My world turned upside down.    I was working in Ahmedabad, my first job and first time that I was away from home. My mother was the force behind my lone survival in the new city. In would often call her and say, "you don't love me, that's why you have just let me be here alone." I accused her for my initial hiccups to adjust in a new place. Calm and composed like always she never got angry at me. She never lost her faith, she knew it was just matter of time that I'd adjust in the new city and things will get rolling. And so it was. I blended with ne...

The Gutters on the way

Image
You have just purchased a lovely bouquet of flowers and are decked up to attend a birthday party.  You park your vehicle at a distance and walk a few meters towards your destination. On your way, lays a gutter with no lid and venting the stinky smell of the dump it stores within.  It irritates your olfactory senses and you are irritated. What would you do?  Most of us will say we'd walk away from that place real quick, and we'd immediately hunt our bags and pockets for any perfumes we might be carrying. Lastly we'd have the flower bouquet that will come to the rescue.  Such are the negative situations, of life. They are full of opinions, judgements, perceptions, toxicity, gossip making them stinky. Whenever you cross roads with such situations they are bound to bother you, but most of us instead of walking away towards positivity, sit over this negative gutter and inhale it and get further irritated.  We were destined to meet the gutter, the handling of the situ...
