I was diagnosed with pneumonia. The doctors preferred that I extend my stay in hospital and go home when healthy. Today, I am back home with the blessings of mai and baba. I have my deepest gratitude for my well-wishers. Your prayers and good wishes have worked. I humbly bow down to each one of you. My doctors at Breach Candy Hospital have been my guardian angels.
