away!! Except for a few Stray dogs, tre wud be absolootely no life on the Roads!
we didnt had a Telephone n had bought a Solidaire TV only an year Back! as my dad lifted an almost lifeless me from the Bed and started making a move...just then, he felt Mom's Hand on his shoulder...Dad Turned and Mom said..I will also come!! That was Really Brave..She was 7
months pregnant and nowhere close to her athletic best..but still on that Midnight, she wanted to be
with me..n v 4 hit the road..th Doc was
still 3 kms away! dad had me on his arms and Mom had kathu on her tummy and they walked for close to a km when they finally saw a Vehicle approaching..A Pandi Lorry.. ma mom virtually
stood on th Middle n waved th truck..th Driver, a gentleman, without a
sec thought, agreed to get us to the Doc!!..My mom climbed on to the Drivers
Chamber..which wud have been atleast 4ft

that mighty Leap!! me and my father followed..the truck driver ensured the
Smoothest ride Possible and got us to the Doc’s clinic!! the Medical team have a medical Emergency in their hands!!..Mom n Dad stayed on the Verandah Bench the whole nite..Next day Morning, Doc said m out of Danger n mentioned it wud have been a very different story if i had been brought an hr or so late!! My Mom stayed at the place as long as she could and left only when i smiled @ her the morning! :)
