29th December'10 to 2nd January'11

On 29th had a long talk with my neighbour Mr.Roy,while both of us were walking.I told him about what care he had to take in regard to his children so that they pick up the right kind of values and are not affected by the general atmosphere wherein they pickup bad habits such as drugs etc.Visited Safdarjang hospital along with Venita.On way to chambers dropped her in the emporia.Mr.SS Sharma dropped in and we had a frank chat for over one & half hour.On 30th could not complete morning program. I reached center for sight at 8.15am & underwent PHACO-PCIOL cataract surgical procedure in left eye. They placed IOL(Teemis I)lens in the left eye. I had to pay an extra sum of Rs.11750 for the lens. It took about 15 minutes for the laser operation.It was almost painless. At the time of fixing of the lens there was sensation of little pain. Neha also joined Venita in the center for sight. One attendant is compulsory. We returned home at about 12am. The whole day I took rest and slept upto 6pm after taking lunch and medicines. At 6.30am I took half tablet Calmpos(5mg) & one tablet of Diamox(250mg)& the same on the 29th night also. These also gave good sleep. In the post operation period I have to avoid touch of water to the operated eye for 3 weeks.However I can continue my daily life as usual. On 31st went to center for sight for checkup as called by them at 8.15.am. Now again I am called after a week.This time we will go to center for sight at Rohini. The center for sight at Safdarjang hospital where cataract operation took place said that we could go to Rohini center also for checkup. It is nearer to our house. A number of friends and relation rang up on the new year's eve as also to inquire about the cataract operation. Bansal rang up and wanted us to join in the New Year celebration on the eve in the society. Venita informed that it was not possible because of my operation.I observed ekadashi fast today. It is safal ekadashi. Slept after the New Year dawned. On 1st skipped walking but completed Pranayam and exercises. It is quite cold. Barun came with his family and had lunch with us. A number of smss came for the New Year greetings. On 2nd spent the day inside home.It was quite cold. Madhurima called from USA.Spoke to Sh.Sood, who had been ticked off by me on 31st December for parking vehicle in front of my vehicle, thereby blocking it and apolozised to him for being harsh to him. Retired to sleep at 11.30pm.
