Doctors

I agree that doctors have to be caring etc,
I do think one of the problems in medical care in India is the extraordinary imbalance that some doctors have with more pts and some who are equally good at their job have very little practice

We certainly flock like droves to people who are busy and then find they cant give us time
I would choose someone who is good and can give the time,but not necessarily who is extremely busy
The corporate hospitals are redressing this imbalance as you have to see who is there and to an extent have limited choices

Why is this blog so boring? I've been seeing only my own posts this week. Okay Im going offline for a bit. And so that there is something fresh everyday ; Ive added a Quote for the day.

To all docs and would be docs ...something i read and heartily agree with

A patient wants to be looked after, not to be looked over by the doc.

Note

People have been mentioning that I don't look like someone who has been in and out of hospitals recently. Well, that is attributable to the don't-be-down-too-long spirit of the Rao Sahib genes I guess.
And our ability to put up a performance when necessary :-)

Independence Day!!

Here are some pics of Independence Day at local school

Its truly an honour. Anyone coming to Ooty on next Aug 15th can share this.



But you have to do this remember.Give a rousing speech. you can see my rapt audience in the background, yawning away:-)



And most important of course is this ; the contribution. I hope people who've promised large sums dont forget that.

These are the kids for whom we've given sweaters & uniforms - 21 in standard 1 and 7 from other classes
I forgot to collect from kapu when she was here with her gang! all of them wearing similar t-shirts and acting 19! Well we'll get to see the pics soon. :-)

STOP SMOKING

I'd been smoking for a long time, now and had given up quitting at some point of time too. Friends and relatives would assure me that "someday you’ll stop" or advice me with "its not good for health" but I didn't care much of what they meant as I knew I'll stop but when??? I didnt have a clue...
Well finally, the time has come...I take pride in saying I stopped smoking for the past 2 weeks and am feeling a sense of achievement already...
It isnt easy, I'd say, most definitely because the temptation was greater than what I thought. It still lingers especially on my taste buds but I'm trying hard to keep it away from between my lips and my thoughts ;)
I hope with all your kind encouragements, I would be able to pass this phase successfully... as there's no turning back.
