morning wish to old lady

so today started off pretty good... my favourite radio jockey from my fav early morning radio show...called me back for one of the show's segments where i get to wish nyone nything...and hence i was on air wishing my coworker and myself a happy tueday:-D early in the morning!nd happy it seemed to start off with!yay!i m such a huge fan of sarthak's show,i never wanna see him though,coz in my head he is just as awesome in person as he sounds,which is pretty darn awesome!!but they dont make no awesome boys nymore!yes yes i know i know...how liking a radio show is aparently lame and nerdy i m told...BUT DO I LOOK LIKE I CARE!!!
nyway so that was that...followed by gettin my delivery of possibly one of the prettiest sarees in the country...hahaha..i like to keep myself happy!its my first silk saree..i feel all grown up!nywayz i cud go on and on bout this one...but lemmme not...
so here i was thinkin ,'hmm today seems like a stand up day!..how wrong i was

nyway so i am on duty in the emergency department these days.. two days ago ..this old lady was brought in...reallly old...i was the one who saw her first.she didn't look very indian to me.she spoke very well,had very pale skin,couldn't speak much hindi...was accompanied by some ppl who seemed to be her care takers.she had some abdomen complaints.though as old ladies go,this one was not very different,coz elliciting one complaint was coated with a whole lotta..i have pain here and there and nobody takes care of me..and nobody is with me..and these ppl who work for me just dont care.after 15-20 minutes of talkin to her,i finally realised wat the problem was and also explained to the doctor under whose care she was finally to be put,coz she didn't seem very comfrtable nd i didn't wanna have her bother, start the story all over again!nyway, she only featured once again in my thoughts later that day when i was wondering if she was anglo indian nd whatever happened to her immediate family.
so the point of that lill introduction to the old lady was coz ..thats how my day at work ended today.Just when i was about to leave..the caretaker who was with the lady the other day,came running to me to tell me that the lady is back and that i shud take a look coz i saw her last time.She came on a stretcher,she was havin uncontrolable seizures,she seemed pretty badly kept and very very sick:-(..nyway we immediately stabilised her.and then while askin the caretaker what happened,i discovered that she is actually the resident of an old age home.her son/kids live either in the US or Canada.they didnt even leave back any of her medical records,so we dont know if she has any other past illnesses.they left her enuff medicine for three months which she is currently on.ENOUGH SAID!i thought all of us think that ,thats a horrible thing to do to ur parents,but ofcourse i was wrong.its not like i dont see enough misery everyday..i dont know what it was about this lady.its not the possible foreign descent,or her well mannered ,well spoken ways..i dont know what it was about this lady,she looked like she was part of something important in her day!she looked like she wore pretty gowns and she went to nice social gatherings.she looked like she saw things and places i haven't seen yet,nd never know if i'll have the pleasure of seeing.i dont know what it was about this lady,but today she didn't seem like she belonged in the casuality of the city government hospital,with soiled clothes and nobody around to call her own!
she was still unconscious when i left the hospital..i dont even know what i wish for her anymore!
