knowing what its about

It’s been a few busy days and I have been on call for the past 3 days. It’s great to have the weekend off from radiation. The wards have been busy and keeping everything under control hasn’t been an easy task. Anne has been doing well; Koby is not being very forgiving though – lots of small pains and aches.

I hope I can get back to my regular postings this week, there will be 4 months of work to catch up on at the end of the posting, but I guess that’s a small price to pay for getting well. It’s really tough to blog though, I really thought that I would be able to get a little time to type my thoughts in but sleep always seems to be a greater priority.

Amma called today, she wants to come with me for my next dose of radiation tomorrow and see what its like. That’s great! Arpit had come last week too, but he was so tired that he fell asleep waiting outside the room! As surgeons we have no exposure to radiotherapy as part of our training. Going through it personally changes the way I look at the entire process and in future when I recommend it – I will really know what I’m talking about!

This is a view of a part of the hospital outside our ward!

Don't worry about keeping up with the blogging, Tarun. We'll see your contributions whenever you have some time to post. Get your sleep when you can!

I agree with Carlos. Though we will miss your daily updates, it is important for you to take rest as well.

Tarun -- rest up while you can! Just wait until Koby arrives! Take care of yourself!
