Great to be back in India & that too with Dad. I'm coming to terms with the chaos on the roads and the hospitality that India is so well known for. Being with Dad has given both of us tremendous strength. I can see Dad improving with each day. I am sure he will be fighting fit very soon.
It;s great to be with Mum & appreciate her role for being with Dad all through his illness.
I've had some great food & spent short bursts of time while Dad has been busy or resting with friends & family. I had some traditional himachali taqeera at Meenakshi's Mum's place for breakfast. It was closure time for me spending a couple of hours with Suman Aunty & Cmde JP Sood who had returned back to the country from a long overseas trip. Gunjan made some delicious food and brought it over yesterday for lunch. I've eaten Kathi rolls & Tandoori Chicken in the hope that my body metabolism grinds away and prevents any deposits around my waste. I visited Kalka Temple with Vinod & had a special darshan for 20mins with our local deities bringing back prashaad for friends & family.
Dad & Mum were dropped at Airforce Station Hindon following which I went and spent the evening with Mini & Umesh & friends at The Diwali Mela followed by fireworks where we had typical Indian snacks & some beer.
Came back home & slept..
Today I will go & spend the morning with Dad while Mum is relieved to go to R & R Hospital. I will be meeting Romal in the arvo sometime followed by Dinner with Mini & Umesh (she's making some mutton curry!)..
It's great to see Dad smiling and a lot more cheerful than what he sounded over the phone!

Great to know Dad is feeling better. I am sure your presence has a big part to making him better.
No Brother is it the wonderful treatment that you gave him without which life would have been a lot more stressful!
