Thank You

[Guest guest]

Dear all,

On Wednesday evening, after spending two days in a Nagpur cardiac hospital,

I returned home.

Now that the catheter, the balloon and the stent- a drug eluting alloy of

platinum and chromium- have opened my semi-closed artery and the dual

antiplatelet drugs are busy in warding off sticky platelets around the

stent, I hope to stay well. My lipids were already low, but statins would

push them further down to ensure that the innocent plaques lining my

coronaries stay innocent.

I must thank all e-group friends - they called me, visited me in the

hospital, texted me motivating messages and wrote me soothing emails- for

helping me cope with mystery of human life, fallibility of human heart and

uncertainty posed by the ruptured plaque. I believe that drugs and stents

do play a crucial role in repairing atheromas in the coronaries, but no

less important is incessant love and affection that a human heart needs to

beat passionately. And I must consider myself fortunate to have been

showered with so much love. I am touched by your warmth and the depth of

your concern. Your words brought tranquility and ease and helped me endure

my angina and hospitalization.

Right now, I spend most of my awake time answering What and Why and When

and How and Where and Who. And I enjoy doing that! I hope to go back to the

classrooms and patients' bedside - Insha Allah, next week!

I don't know about you, but after my Plasty, I started treasuring each

living moment. I have stopped wasting my precious seconds on hating anybody

or regretting things, and have now started enjoying each and every moment of

my fragile life. The best thing that happened to me is that my ego has

disappeared and has been replaced by a smiling benevolence. Remember the

movie Guide? I am that Dev Anand in the climax scene.
