Monthly Musings : April -21 The 2nd Wave Strikes
This month has been the most heart wrenching,
where the 2nd wave of the deadly corona virus spread across the
nation. Last year we heard of cases admitted and now groups are filled with obituaries.
Manas board exams were cancelled which was as expected and based on internal
exams marks will be given. Seeing the dire state of affairs, I took the lead to
form a Covid task force in our apartment and that is giving a sense of
satisfaction and helping someone in need. The situation is very bad with non-availability
of beds, oxygen and medicines. The administration is trying its best but then
this what happens when one is not proactive and takes care of the fundamentals.
I went and took my first shot of Covi shield vaccine, Shalini hasn’t and by
then there was a lock down announced. Manas routine twice a month visit
continues and he is parameters were slightly varying hence the 6MP doses were
increased to 11. Manas is now reading about 11th commerce, have started
teaching him abouot stock market and investments. He is now following the
Chelsea club as well and at home it is IPL, football and chess that is keeping
us busy. He has now perfected kneading the chappati dough and making pasta. We
have started providing food couple of days a week to covid affected patients
and he helps us with that. Praying that this time too shall pass and the world
heals itself soon.
