Momma Dont Preach !! - Part 2

Well , Im surely one heck of a procrastinator !! This is one proof for it !! Seems i ve posted "Momma Dont Preach - Part 1" on December 7 , 2007 !! LOL.. Its almost one year over and am back to finish this unfinished business !! Who knows , what am gonna write here now may be very much different if i have written the same thing in December !

Ok Now coming to it , My mom played,plays and will play a significant role in my life !!These are excerpts from her life and her relationship with me ! Read at your own risk :) Because it may get borin for u soon , but i ll try to make it as interesting and succint as possible ! So lemme start !! Mom was born in a lower middle class family with about 5 siblings .Her father - my granddad was a honest government officer- and so , you can imagine the situation she grew up in ! Sure it was nt a fairy-tale childhood for her ! She was a brilliant student - always stood first in her class- and a gold medalist in her college ! First she worked as a teacher in a lindergarten school and then got a good central govt job with a high salary after few yrs ! But then , family pressures made her to marry very late at the age of 30 !!

After marriage , seems there were lotsa problems at her in-laws place(My dad's place) because of her job !! So dad and mom moved over to a seperate home (in which we are still) !! And when i was born , she faced her first of FOUR Operations ! This one was Caesarian and in few months she was back to work ! I was at home with a maid to look after !

And then came the Miracle !! It was 7 months into my Mom's second pregnancy ! One day at her office , she suddenly got an excruciating pain and she passed off and was immediately rushed to the hospital ! There her blood pressure and pulse went down drastically and doctors told my dad and relatives that she has a very little chance of gettin through it ! My dad was asked to sign a form telling that the hospital had no role to play if she dies during the operation ! So then it was her second Operation and yup - it was a baby boy - who saw dakness even before daylight could flash on him ! The baby was dead and after the opeartion got over doctors felt it would be the same story with my mom !

Final hours.. Moms BP and pulse never seemed to improve ! Doctors gave a 24 hour deadline.. And then it happened.. From no where , at the deep end of the 24 hour deadline , her BP and pulse seemed to slowly rise up and in few minutes it was up and running !! :) Everyone who witnessed it said it was God's miracle !! Even today , when my mom goes back to that hospital , they call her the Miracle Lady !! :)

So am startin to feel sleepy now.. will end it here ! this is only the begining ! Got lots more to come ! Catch you in the next Part !! :)


-End of Part 2 !
