8th February

Today I had to go to MAX hospital to reach there before 10am.Barun's prostrate operation was fixed to start at 10am. Later we came to know that it was postponed to 10th February.As Barun was already in the hospital, we decided to look him up and meet other members of the family who had assembled in the hospital to be available for any emergency.We met Barun and others.I talked to Dr.Rajiv Sood of the hospital who was to do the operation.He told me that he had to postpone the operation as PSR level of blood was very high.He was giving medicines to bring it down.He further said that if he had operated at the existing level of PSR,it might have let to complications including clotting of blood. I told him to do what was medically proper. PSR level of blood indicates infection in body.In people suffering from cancer, this level goes up to 2000.Its level should not be more than 20.If it is more than 20,it indicates some infection in the body.Even if one has flu,its level goes up more than 20.As I had some other work to do,I bid good bye to all the family members and said that I would meet them on 10th February. Venita stayed back. In chambers from 11pm to 3pm. Venita visited nearby mall and bought some cute clothing for Alenah. Visited Supreme Court for some professional work.
