Memories |
- Mom went into
coma early morning around 8.00am in the hospital on november 21st,
2007. IO reached the hospital by 8.30am unfortunately I was not there
before she went into coma. I held her hand till evening telling her
I am there by her side. don't worry. she died at around 6 in the evening
the same day. I had to manage everything for her with the help of
my near and dear friends.
|
- The night
before she died, she wanted to remember our names. I wrote it down
and she was trying to memorise the names. Had to reteach her how
to say the names.
|
- Her last laugh
was a few days back from her last day, when i told her "come
on, come on, it's morning and you must make some tea for me. She
knew she could not as she was in bed. And that I was joking.
|
- She knew the
trouble I had to take in taking care of her, The only thing she
could say "Nosh i'm sorry but I love you very much".
|
- Even in bed
she made sure that her dogs were feed every day and that they would
not be left hungry.
|
- She always
needed my help and support these last 15years, due to her health
problems and felt safe when I was around.
|
- It is very
difficult to belive that she is no more and the fear to think that.
It's a feeling that one cannot share with anyone. Only the person
concerned can understand the feeling.
|
- She will always
remain alive in my heart and mind as long as I live.
|
- Mom loved animals
a lot, she always looked after the road dogs and fed them everyday.
|
- Mom protected
all animals who were near her and in and around the society
|
- Mom was very
supportive in my life. she was a good mother and taught me the best
of her knowledge.
|
- Moms's last wish
was respected and we proceeded for the funeral according to her wish.
(hopefully there will be someone for me to do the same for me).
|
- Mom was very
religious and prayed daily. morning, afternoon and evening at the
setting sun.
|
- Mom was loved
by many childrn where ever she went. She had a kind heart and cared
for them. She used to go out of her way for children and animals.
she was commonly know as 'Aunty' In coloba during the years till 1987
she was very well know in the area by the name of Aunty by the kids.
|
- I remember even
after we shifted to Borivli, a couple of times she went back to colaba
to feed some of the dogs she loved very much.
|
- We had roughly
9 dogs in total as pets inhouse in her life. When I came in there
were 3. She developed the love for animals in me.
|
- Mom's s dad died
when she was very young. She still remembered his love. Her mom looked
after her since. Yes she had brothers and sisters.
|
- Mom was a very
good cook when she was in good health. She was never able to cook
after she had an paralysis stroke. Even then she tried to do some
thing or the other. It made her feel good. (she ahd a stroke abt 20
yrs before she died. That time I was in college).
