Monthly Musings : November -20 The turnaround begins
30th November was exactly a year ago when Manas
was operated for the tumor and we got to know that it was malignant and now exactly
after a year, he is getting back to normal. This month was when we did all the
re-tests which included doing MRI and Echo and both came as normal. What was
very heartening and satisfying was the Dr Komal Prasad (Neurologist) comment on
his report which stated ‘remarkable progress due to his will power’, this
summed up our emotion and journey of last 12 months. While we don’t want to
think about it, it brings both tears of pain and joy at what Manas endured. This
month, he started running in the colony and also we got out to play cricket
with tennis ball for a hour. His 2 friends Aditya and Gautam come and join us.
It is so nice to see him back in the nets, have fun and enjoy the game. The Corono
virus also completes a year since it turned its ugly head but then being at
home and quarantined is a new normal. The one year has been a year of
turnaround and the entire world was giving us company. His grandparents also went back to their home
in Pune after being with us for 11 months and they were an immense support. The
IPL also concluded and RCB reaching playoff was a welcome progression something
that Manas was rooting for. This month also had India tour of Australia though
we got hammered in the first 2 One day international. Sagar also left for Indore
to spend some time with his parents and meet his friends. I hope and pray that from
December is a beginning of turnaround for entire world and sign of better times
to come. Like us, let this be a positive turnaround for everyone. Amen
