The Road to 13th march! PART:1

And next day morning arrived!when i opened my eyes the television in my room was on!the pain was less and cud hear people talk!my mom asked me how i was feeling i said ok!the cricket match had started between india and south africa at VCA nagpur!i somehow managed to put my glasses on and was trying to see the match!then my mom said now u ve to get used to this solution becoz u can not brush ur teeth!so i managed with the solution!

i cud see a saline bottle giving me glucose and lodz of other drugs on the side table and i was wearing the hospital uniform!dr nisal came to see me in the evening!he examined me and said my face was swollen so they can not operate on me in such condition and so they ve to wait for a week!that evening i was shifted to another room!

the daily routines at C.I.M.S. were boring!the only thing that i enjoyed was the peace!in my whole life i had never taken such a rest!i used to sleep for hours!friends used to visit me in the evenings and we used to chat!it was an awe full scenario that i never imagined in my wildest dreams!honesty i was happy!the reason was simple!this was my last chance of emotionally blackmailing my parents for a change!i wanted to leave engineering!and one fine day 0n the 5th of march dr nisal came in and said we will post you on monday the 7th of march!dr sanjeev deshpande will come from mumbai and we will opearte on u on 7th of march!

oh my gudness!i was really scarred!but now i started making my mind ready for the surgery!the first thing i remember i did was to imagine a situation me my mom and my dad seating in hotel pride and having lunch after all the drama!this +ve imaging did help me!

alast the morning of 7th march arrived!my whole body was shaved!they were confused whether to restructure my nose with the bone or not!dr sanjeev deshpande said that if we do not do it now i will not be able to wear my spects properly!so they did a ct scan on my skull!the idea was to replace that bone by cutting a v shaped bone graph from my skull! Due to the accident if there was a little spinal fluid ejection then i wud go into coma!but dr deshpande was very confident and he said nothing was going to happen!bang on!he explained me all and we were ready for a journey!

i went into operation theatre raising hands to all my relatives as if i was an astronaut going for a space mission!dr mule my ansthetist was rocker of person!she asked me to sing a song and i said how can i sing my nose is packed i ve to breathe by my mouth!how can i?so she said we will sing it for u and in the mean time u ve to adjust the mask!so she gave a prick and in that small second of a time i adjusted my mask and off iwent into a deep sleep!

i was later told the surgery lasted of some 5 odd hours!dr deshpande said something to me after mu surgery!i remember i did open my eyes for few seconds after my surgery!then what happned i do not remember!
