Happy me...


BEFORE WITH DISPLACED FRACTURE




COFMORTABLE CHILD.



AFTER ARM CHEST STRAP.


Life is challenging though funny many times. I am taking round alone with medical officers and interns. However, I was consultant on call earlier also but the Saturday is the first time I am on call. Saturday is holiday and the big boss of morning round is no other than me. ha ha ha.


I was proceeding and medical officer tried to give some unnecessary information to save his ass leaving the responsibility to juniors. I said whoever does, its not issue, if not you people I will do it. But, it should be done. Same time I was smiling for what he was trying to do. I memorized my residency and compared how people changes with time. Our colleague used to do same thing and consultant used to screw our ass publically.. However, I always took my responsibility and said sorry but no excuses. Today I gave them the space to face responsibility not that I scolded like hell. Let us see how people react to it. Definitely, these juniors will not put me on the topic and abuse me in tea time. If at all I will be discussed I will be discussed with reference of my parent institute. See the difference he is from AIIMS, but funny thing is same things happens in AIIMS too. ha ha ha


Was having lunch and got a call that a precious child during delivery got his arm fractured while the gynecologist was applying force to deliver him out.. These days my brain is storming with these precious child things. Went to the ER and tried doing new to him so that he suffers less and fracture takes its better shape. Immediately came to room and searched the literature. Its not a common fracture that one can say do this way and it is best. People have tried their knowledge but all have union since the kids have tremendous capacity to heal themselves be it a bone or soft tissue. Tried to give splint to the limb but found it will loosened with time once the child starts moving limbs. I was reluctant to put U slab/plaster because the child skin is so soft it peels like potato with plaster. So I wrapped the upper limb with adequate cotton to the side of chest and strapped with bandage and adhesive tapes. Got the x-ray and its fantastic. Remodeling in children is so much that small deformities are corrected with time. And our’s was a minimal deformity after strapping. Abundant cotton will keep the baby warm too.


The tragedy started after that. Gynecologist had already discharged the patient since the child was delivered yesterday . Since it was male child the pampered parents wants to go home today and celebrate with the relatives and neighbors. Feel pity for them being proud of producing male kid. The mother burst into tears that she wants to be in home for her comfort. She hates to be in hospital. I convinced stay for 2 weeks in hospital and we will discharge. But she was sure she can come after week or so. I called her after 2 weeks so that by the time it will unite. Only concern is the cotton gets loosened and deformity may progress. Hope the mom can still maintain the position so that the kid is least disturbed. Praying for the god for his best outcome with the less deformed arm. There are few moments where I feel proud of being a doctor. Its one of them……..

Me here....

Fine and happy here. Joined as a faculty in Manipal College of Medical Sciences in pokhara. Alloted a hostel a better one and shifted fully. As i used to say it’s a beautiful place in Nepal, the most visited place in Nepal by the tourists. Life is cool and happy . I am usually free by 4:30pm everyday. Now life is so comfortable that you keep on asking over the phone and the rest will be done by the juniors. This is what they call at one level one becomes senior same thing has happened to me...... very funny though, unknowingly I have become senior. ha ha ha ha. I still remember those tough days in AIIMS, where I missed most of my dinner lunch and the day breakfast used to be irregularly irregular. Moreover those were the residency days and one has to undergo the tough situation to make him fit to bear the most untoward. That is what medical science believes,,, I guess so..

There is nothing new. I have not yet got the internet connection. I knew from the private internet provider that the college provides the broadband to the faculty that to free. "ye to chandi hai na dost mere liye, jiske pass TV nahi hai, nahi hai BIWI" :):):):):):).

My favorite time pass as usual has become to sit in the library. Though small the library meets my requirements. Books I have already, silence and clean it is but the separate study area for faculty, that's not fair. Why to bar us from sitting close by beautiful .........? ha ha ha thats entire a joke, nothing serious plz....

Tomorrow is Saturday and the national holiday or the week's end. So I may get the internet on Sunday cause it is the working day here. Hope by god's grace I would be able to get the connection the same day. If not I would be going to buy a wireless. As usual I am a moody and cannot wait long to get what I want. However I don’t want to connect with people through net but still it’s my weakness to roam at the deepest page of World Wide Web..... Most of the time I click one page and don’t know where I end too, until and unless my eyes says me "stop it please"

There is nothing more to write now. Wrote every craps saying nothing to write but leaving nothing unsaid. Eeeee Eooooo....

God bless you all. Praying for you all....

The update....

hey friends!

I am still taking few more breaths in this Earth. Have joined MCOMS Pokhara. For the people unfamiliar to this MCOMS, it stands for meanipal college of medical sciences and located in the beautiful place of Nepal. Nepal itself is beautiful no doubt but when it comes to pokhara its simply beautiful. Not yet explored but what i see is too much. And the place i work is great.
Does not look like a medical college, looks like a corporate hospital. dont know much about the working pattern and culture but must be good, as it is able to maintain the same spirit since couple of years.


Shifted to hsotel and fully started a hostelier life once again. but the new hostel is a different. Not like a usual hostel,i was staying since last 10 years of my college life. hey people the weather is not wild like kathmandu......Anyway happy and confortable......:):):)


Will update with photographs soon.......:)

hello hello hello....... I am back....

Dated 09-01-09
All the people in Delhi I miss you all, esp S:). I reached safely. Though it was very difficult to get the returning ticket, the flight was almost empty. There were only 25 passengers though the capacity of the Boeing was 180. This reminds me why the government owned airlines collapses. People say THAI and RNAC were started on same day but see THAI and RNAC, its nowhere we can compare man. Similar was the condition of Srilankan airways, but once it was owned by AIR France it has gained momentum and it’s probably the best now in south East Asia.

Since I came home, I have become a foodie. I don’t mind if I gain wt by few kilos this time. Cause I can gain a victory over weight so its not a problem for me to reduce weight as and when required. The whole of my intestine has probably turned greenish this time. I don’t mind to have any green vegetables now, only criterion is it should be cooked.

I have just finished the medical council work. Got all the papers to practice as a bone fixer in Nepal. Paper wise I have already joined the medical college but the presence is necessary to raise my counts in meter, a meter that determines my salary. Again I have to open a bank account, wherever I go I open an account. So far, I must have so many accounts that it is difficult to remember the signature and pin code fir ATM cards. In this era of inflation and regression, I sometimes doubt why money is not safe if they are kept in home too. So why to open a bank account? But poor me what I can do if they ask a bank account. Whatever, money makes you slave and you will be ready to open even two bank accounts if required.

Will meet the nation’s best orthopaedicain on Sunday morning and discuss with him if there are chances to stay back in kathmandu. Else, I will continue with what I have done in MCOMS. One year is what I need to do what I wanted to. So MCOMS is not a bad option at this phase for me. And I know I am not a bonded labor so I am free to move wherever I am comfortable. My time, my comfort, and my expectations are the priority wherever I go.

Kathmandu is freezing day by day. The sudden exposure to cold had made me uncomfortable. Running nose and dry cough has once again troubled me. Heard that pokhara is comfortable than kathmandu climate wise. Even air ticket is cheap to pokhara :D. See you soon pokhara, wish me a good luck guys:):):)

Few words more.....










“3W’s are never predictable” was the favorite slang during undergrad days. If I am permitted, I should explain all 3 W’s first, namely WIFE, WINE, AND WEATHER. Hey, you I am unaware of two of those. Bachelor by choice until now, never drank alcohol in any form, but more interested in weather. However, all three are interrelated. Mainly weather has more justification to both of those they say to satisfy their action. Before you could jump upon any speculation, let me clear about it. I do not want to comment upon WIFE, the novel relationship god has created. WINE I can but I don’t want because it has never attracted me. Only left is WEATHER. Moreover, my few words are incomparable to describe weather where people have tried writing pages and pages since ages.

Last night my knees were so cold that I was barely sleeping. Heater was not working, and I don’t enjoy putting clothes while sleeping. Hey hey hey! don’t say I sleep naked :D Early morning I could feel my knees as a mass of ice covered with flesh. Stiff, creaky, crunchy, and detached. What I mean to say is Delhi suddenly allowed the temperature to drop and as usual I say this winter is the worst winter. Foggy, misty, lousy, lonely, shaky and suddenly arrhythmic.

I am already on the reverse count for my stay in Delhi, better say India. I had a ticket on 4th. Though I planned to leave on 8th after attending convocation. Unfortunately, this convocation was not for us as they informed at the final moment. I cancelled just because I want to meet all who loved me and helped me during my stay. Still few are left to meet so I cancelled the ticket and got it for 7th. So, three more days to go. I feel like staying but time does not allow me. I am finally leaving on 7th. Hey people unaware of my next life, let me share my happiness that I am appointed as a consultant in a medical college in Nepal, consultant orthopaedic surgeon. The happiness is limitless. PLACE, PEOPLE AND POSTING all 3P’s are the best in the place I am going. The mini Switzerland of Nepal I should say, though I have never been there. Last night I was busy googling the pictures from POKHARA( check the pics). For a mad like me, the natural beauty is all, which makes me happy. Happy sleeping, sweet dreams((((
