With each visit in Sick Kids Foundation,looking at the bumble bees, these children and their smiling faces, happy and absorbed...it touches me... I actually prefer to call them "superheroes" who inspite of frightening surgeries and painful procedures continue to make the most of their childhood...gives me a psychological trauma....Gives me a feeling as if I'm carrying an atmosphere of quiet contemplation....I cannot physically experience these kids but can experience them in my mind....and these sites shackles me and I say to myself "no more walls"...This is an overly sensitive heart speaking!....
Looking at each one of them was equivalent to looking at pictures telling its own story, shaped by the mood or insights of the person....almost lost myself in the object of their wonder....my emotions here is very close to the surface....as rightly quoted by Sophocles that "Children are the anchors that hold a mother to life".....
True that "The joys of parents are secret, and so are their griefs and fears: they cannot utter the one, nor will they utter the other" as quoted by Francis Bacon Sr.
I finally watched "Taare Zameen Par" after debating over it for a long time. For some reasons I never wanted to watch it but I must admit that it indeed is a nice movie-a movie which has a lot to say to a lot of parents, a movie that has deep intensity. Specially after my daughter's surgery in one of the famous hospitals for kids "Sick Kids Foundation", Toronto, "Every child is special" ( as the movie quotes).
I have come across some of the most pretty and cute looking faces in the hospital having weird complications that we cant even imagine in our day-to-day lives. To top it all they were all born with it. So to all those parents who have given birth or about to give birth, all that matters is that the "Child should be Healthy" dont worry about the sex of the child.
I came across this little girl called "Sunehri" ( original name not revealed) who was born healthy, infact healthiest amongst her five brother's and sisters, weighed more than all of her siblings and all of a sudden for the last two years her eyes are shutting down....Parents are clueless as to why its happening.
The other "Prince" ( that's what I would call him as he was one of the good looking boy there) that I came across always had his neck bended to right, I assumed he's undergoing neck surgery but according to his parents its his eye....when he bends his neck to right his vision is perfect & when he straightens his head he gets double vision. He has a problem with a muscle in his eye.
Last but not the least "New born kids" with complication's coming down for surgeries & parents simply bursting down in tears is so painful to see.
You may be thinking as to why I'm only mentioning about kids, surgeries etc for the last 2 days is because that's all in my mind these days. I constantly think about all those parents who are battling for their kids speedy recovery and attending their respective religious destinations for their child's betterment. And what "Mother's" go through is even beyond explanations. So all you pregnant mother's "Dont go against Nature".
Cheers!!!
Ever since I got the phone call from Sick Kids Foundation for Risha's surgery, I was petrified. Varoius kinds of thoughts were streaming down my mind. Made several calls to close friends to ease myself but nothing helped. Didnt know what to do. On one hand I knew that nothing's gonna happen as its an external surgery nothing related to the major organs but on the other hand I was worried about aneasthesia & all that. I could not even concieve of the idea that my precious daughter would go to an operation theatre and come out unconscious with all kinds of wires hanging around her. Cant even imagine! My eyes almost went dry. Tears for Fear. Thanks to Decn and Chhabi for their constant support. But on the contrary I was absoulutely tensionless when Risha was in the OT, I guess the migrane took it all, partially also left it all upto the panel of doctors & the confidence they instilled in me.
Thank God, its all over. I must mention here & it is indeed worth mentioning that the services rendered by Sick Kids Foundation is par excellent. Special thanks to Dr. Sevan Hopyan, Dr. Farshid Tabloie, Nurse:Jesse, Kaitlyn & Cast Specialist:Fay.
Now I just hope & pray that Risha recovers soon & the purpose for which the surgery is done is met & we dont have to go thru it again. Good Luck Risha & Mummy loves you. You are my most treasured possession!!!
