Feminine/ Feminism.

  I take pride being a Feminine Feminist........ I was attending an All Ladies Night which had all Ladies from Homemakers to Professionals....in all age groups.....Teens to Geriatrics. Every person was made to speak few words on being a woman,their life and add a message to everyone present. A lovely evening filled with lovely decked up ladies.  The Chief Guest was a well qualified, well achieved, well known affluent lady in her 60s. She spoke about her life.  What struck me is .......her  words.......She hated cooking.In her entire life, she had never entered kitchen or even boiled water.  She was applauded for her this achievement in life by all Ladies.  This blog I have written is not to argue importance of cooking in a Woman 's life. Cooking according to me is necessity in every body's life.No Gender discrimination or preferences on this aspect as we all need food to survive.  But cooking for ourselves and our dear ones is not something to be belit...

In the Middle.

 I am every woman.I never accept my age nor reveal my true age. Yes,I dread MIDLIFE. I am entering this period. By Definition: Age between 45years to 65 years is MIDLIFE.  P.S I will never reveal my age. My family celebrated my entry into this period with great fervor much to my chagrin. I feel uncomfortable and uneasy even today. Through this blog, I would like to share my experiences with Midlife. Though new to me and am still learning to cope with it.  I have been practicing Bharat Natyam dance since many years. But midlife is bringing slight rigidity into my very flexible body. My dance moves,Yoga asanas are getting restricted.  I have been blessed with good stamina and endurance.Of late,am getting exhausted after a busy day.  Every Sunday, I have been running 10k.After the run,I used to be energetic for a wonderful weekend.  But,nowadays, my energy is getting drained. I feel lethargic and lazy to enjoy the weekend.  Professional front,I am very ag...

Farishta

 In our walk of life,we face incidents and people who leave an impact in our minds and lives.Both good and bad memories. I only keep back the good and forget the bad. It was a heavily raining night.At 12 Midnight or so,I received a call from an unknown Hospital at an unknown location for Emmergency Csection. Those days my driving skills were very limited. I didn't know how to reverse the car. The hospital was very desperate. And it was Emmergency.  My kids aged 4years and 2 years got up due to the lights being switched on. The 2 decided to jump in the car and join me in my Midnight venture in heavy rains.  Due to poor visibility I overshot a lane and entered a very narrow lane. I was in a fix.How do I reverse? I didn't know the area well and had 2 small kids in the car. I looked around and found 2 young boys about 25years or less sitting in front of a closed shop. I called them and asked the directions. To my astonishment,found myself requesting the 2 strangers " Can you ...

Organ donation.

 This August 13 ,we celebrated World Organ donation day.This day is celebrated to spread awareness of Organ donation and promote the Organ donation drive amongst public. The 1st Organ Transplant in world was done in 1954. The 1st Organ transplant in India was done in 1965 in King Edward Memorial Hospital, Mumbai. The Organ transplanted was Kidney. I have been grateful for being part of 2 Kidney transplants and 1 Liver transplant till now. My 1st Transplant experience as Anaesthesiologist was with Kidney Transplant. The same evening was my engagement.  I didn't want to miss the opportunity of being a part of Transplant unit and obviously had to attend my own engagement.  So I requested our Transplant Unit Professor to post me on the Donor's side which would get over early. Once the kidney is removed from the donor,it is bathed in special solutions to prepare it for transplant. In the meantime, in another operation theatre,the recepient side is prepared for the bed for new ...

Financial Empowerment

 Finance is the seventh sense in a Man. Many people earn living but only few achieve success.....Very few realise importance of FINANCE- in literal and practical sense. Theory and knowledge regarding Finance is available every where in print and digital media.  But very few make efforts in understanding Finance and follow financial management and strategies.  Finance.......just working hard day and night. Saving every penny......NO. This is not Finance.  By Definition, Finance means...apart from earning, it includes BUDGETING,INVESTING, BORROWING, TAXATION AND PERSONAL FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT.  Majority of our curriculum in school teaches us Science, Arts, Mathematics and in name of Finance only Cost Price,Selling Price,Profit/ Loss,Stock balance. Since childhood, we are taught to develop skills and proficiency to EARNING MONEY.  BUT NOBODY......neither parents,nor curriculum teaches us above aspects of Finance..... Financial security or Financial Empowerment ...

 This blog and incidents I mention are true.Yes shocking at times.I have no intentions of accusing or defaming any body or any Group. Readers should instead concentrate on the important aspects I want to highlight.Dont debate out of content which is seen on most social medias.Sorry guys trollers this is not your platform.  I had been called for Hysterectomy or termination of Pregnancy in 20 weeks I.e 5 month pregnancy in a 15 year old girl....many many years back. Readers,let me inform you that termination of Pregnancy in minors ( Earlier it was 18 years below ...last 2 years it is 16 years below of age) and more than 16 weeks of gestational period without Anatoly or life threatening complications to mother or fetus...requires District Health official consent.It means it becomes a Medicolegal case. It involves police and government officials.  After completing all the legal formalities....we completed the procedure.  Apart from Legal problems, this girl had PIH( Preg...
