Can love and hope be injected through the IVs?
We know her lungs suck at being lungs(borrowed from The Fault in our stars!) If filling the gaps in X-ray charts was possible then, we would do it most obediently and sincerely! She is a fighter, survivor, guardian angel, magic pencil, Santa Claus, above all, she is a single mother who raised my mother with so many hardships. She is our "Aama ", who nurtured us like delicate flowers. She was the gardener, who did all the pruning at the right time with rewards and punishment methods. Her organs are slowly turning into black but she has and will have the whitest and purest part i.e her heart. She had many dreams. Most importantly, she wants to play with the only grand son's kids. She craves for the fruits and curd, but she is prohibited to eat them. Some deadly insects are eating her up. And, she is still in love with baked potatoes and achar and everyone thinks that it is still normal!
She wants to run away from everyone and hospitals mostly. She gets irritated, angry, and emotionally challenged at times She isn't entertained by the fake expression of those white-coated homo sapiens! She is fed up with the IV cannulas. Can love and hope be injected through the IVs? If it is possible, then we seriously want that miracle to happen. The CBC, RBC, Calcium reports, Xrays, saturation test, pressure monitoring, and the worst part weighing! The reports always come up with some haunting and unexplained traumas for everybody, especially my mom. She smiles as hard as possible, just to let the wchs know that she is doing fine. And she is NOT! She tries to comfort the fellow patients admitted with smiles and hope. She is someone who is not bogged down by many things and circumstances. Her courage and attitude are something to die for or the other way, these two attributes of her have worsened her health.
Some times, life is not so fair, it places everybody in the whirlpool of happiness followed by some helpless tragedies. But, yes there is something called hope and still will strongly say love conquers all the agonies.
