The Travel Bug

The Travel Bug



Works on Coral Reefs protection in Spain. Looks great. I fully support this. Its a dream to be part of this magnificant rainforest of the seas. Last year, in May 2005, I had a chance to spend time learning diving to study the flora and fauna diversity in Langkawi islands in Malaysia. We also spent time in Penang, which is another beautiful but slightly larger island that Langkawi. The best holiday I had so far.

Madhukar's recovery was miraculous

Since the last 9 days its been a daily visit to the hospital at Holy Angels in New Delhi. Getting a feel of what it is to face the rock bottom with one's health. Madhukar, my friend has been in Intensive Care Unit, battling a severe attack of pancreatis. But Dr. Mahajan and Dr. Joseph, besides the nursing care staff have all toiled hard to help Madhukar pull through this. He is likely to be shifted to the general ward today. I would hope with another lease of life for him. Hope its a turnaround time for all of his family, and time to bounce back to normalcy. Everytime I drive down to the hospital and come back, I have bouts of anxiety, tension, and this gives me lots of introspection opportunities. Wondering why we are so fragile, and how fine the human body functions, as long as it functions.
