Tribute to my beloved Mother On 14th May’13, my beloved mom was diagnosed stomach carcinoma. The endoscopy and biopsy certainly confirmed this hell like news. We at home, were disheartened with this and broken into fragments. Quickly I contacted my Radiologist friend Dr.Ravi and shared this sad news. Doctor friend advised me to bring mother to his Scan clinic the next day early morning. All we were in a mood to work fast without even hinting my mom. She co operated very positively though she’d complete weary for incomplete sleeping last night. She never questioned me about this early morning travel. Next day, we reached the clinic safely. Dr.Ravi personally took care on my mom and completed all of his medical Scrutiny. Showed all the scans and explained me very patiently. He firmly believed that this stomach carcinoma could be operable. Also suggested a Surgical Oncologist for a précised discussion. The next day, we met the Oncologist at his clinic with scan reports. The Oncologist had gone through the reports. He checked my mom and suggested me to take blood, urine, ECG, EEG, X-Ray and other tests on that day. On going through the complete reports, the next day, Doctor pointed out the necessity of getting concurrence or opinion from a cardiologist since my mom had an open heart surgery in April 2012. During her post heart surgery, she’s severely affected with the brain nerves disorder. My mom was in ICU for about 8 days. This disorder caused my mom, loosing complete memory ability even to identify few small things. But with the help of Dr.Rajeshwari, neurologist, my mom got more than 80% memory in a short span of her treatment. Year 2012 had put me in hot water for swimming. Anyway by the grace of God, we got out of this major hammering. Now, me too was convinced on hearing this from Oncologist to get cardio opinion and we decided to get it from the cardiologist. In the next two days, consulted a popular cardiologist. He gave us a clean consent to proceed for surgery with small alternative prescriptions. These formalities, all were going on with the help of my beloved mom. Silently, she’s helping us for this operation. One day evening, she asked me what for this operation? I told my mom that a small operation will clear her troubles in stomach side and help her for long life. She smiled at me and nodded her head. Whatever I said, my mom simply agreed on any issues. Even though she’d severe pain, she enquired me. Everything was well set for her second big operation in a big hospital. As a son, I did all my effective efforts for my mom. The operation lasted more than four hours and went successfully. Doctor showed me the removed flesh and explained. He told me that the removed portion will be sent for biopsy. Two days, she’s in ICU. After, she came to the normal ward. The treatment was going on. Four or five days later, one bad day morning, my father called me that my mom had lost conscious and was severely trembling. Rushed to the hospital. Doctors were attending my mom and advised me for a CT scan. Once it’s done, she’s readmitted into ICU. The reports were mentioning that she developed severe stroke internally in brain side and the most of the brain portions were disfunctioning. This was such a kind of poor destiny or fate. She got out of major operation but was failing to come out of this stroke. She’s struggling to function on her own. Moved to unconscious. From the day, 14th May onwards, I didn’t go to office. I was attending my mom. Whenever she needed me, I was there. Though, it was a duty, I never took it as a duty. It’s a blessing to me. Due to this internal brain suffer; all of a sudden, she started loosing severely day by day. Consulted all the Doctors one night. Explained them the importance of my mother. Though the condition was not up to the level, the Oncologist and Anesthetist agreed to go for fresh treatment in the next day morning. Went home with a little hope. The next day morning, 13th June’13, I had a call from an unknown mobile no. Attended the call. It’s from the doctor. He spoke silently that Mother’s condition was not fair enough and her pressure gone to 90/70. In this condition, Doctor desperately left his idea of restarting. I felt very bad. Emotionally I burst into a sound cry. Unable to attend my morning naturals. At once, I reached the hospital. The ICU was in 6th floor. I still didn’t know how I reached it that much fast on stairs. Rushed into ICU. My mom was calm and humbled on the bed. She’s showing some movements in her neck side. Other organs stopped functioning. Eyes closed. I was at peak of sorrow. I didn’t know how to react in front of nurses and in ICU. Uncontrolled mind pushed me out of that room. I started weeping that my mom was completely going away. I didn’t take even a drop of water. It’s such a worst state of living for a son waiting at hospital to hear a sad news. I was waiting. At 5.15 p.m, the nurses called me. Got inside ICU. My mom had lost her breath. She’s chill. Touched her feet, hands and head. Felt everything lost. It’s a day one which I felt inconsolably passed. I loved my mom with no boundaries. She showed me immense love upon me. Though an illiterate, she had always insisted me for studying. The way, she guided me is unique and her kind affection on me is immortal. Even at her last days, she asked me to change few things just for the sake of our family. I immediately accepted her say. She gifted me a kiss. Now she’s no more. But her things are still with us. She gave me a great will power. Hope she’ll guide me forever.
