Without wasting time anup got me to the Max Healthcare hospital in Gurgaon. I sensed like entering some IT company; later the doc greeted me. I come from a place where my grandfather died because there was no oxygen in the state and my dad was treated as a malaria patient for 25 days for gall bladder stones. For me yeah it was definitely the first prioriy to have access to proper healthcare and MAX Hospital was an automatic choice. After 4 days i walked out of the hospital without having any single grudge against the hospital or any facility. The best part were the nursing people; all are from kerala with one exception from manipur. They were at their best in commitment and dedication towards duty is just uncomparable. Coupled with the high tech gadgets life is easy definitely for them but there are annoying people who make their life miserable. And its really amazing that they choose the profession just because they want to serve mankind and left their home to pursue that.
My veins had a tough time fighting the pricks of the needles and the subsequent sodium drugs. I really screamed like an animal and finally fought it off in 4 days.
In these few days i had met quite a few cartoon characters and interesting people. One patient had got admitted himself as he had a sore throat only and finally he went mad as he was held back for three days. Another worth mentioning is a damsel who had met with a major accident. Her car was banged by a speeding wagonR and the car twisted one circle and toppled 3 times before it crashed. Three people inside came out alive miraculously.
It was like a late night tragic movie I would never like to watch again but few aspects gave me a new paradigm.

Heart wrenching.... Shows how much or rather, how little we value human life.... Right from the government to supposedly the best hospital in the country.... If this is the situation in the National Capital Region, one can well understand the situation elsewhere in the country....
The million Dollar question is -
What happens to someone who meets with a tragedy in a state where one has the most skilled set of hands & cutting edge technology to go with it....but not enough of Insurance or the green dough to access them??
