How Ungrateful

Good post @Kamalji

More than their ungratefulness, its the foolishness of the Central Govt. & the hospital to spend 3 crores on her treatment. Don't we have enough poor people in India who are suffering with chronic diseases not able to spend money for their treatment & waiting for a helping hand?

So those sisters & their relatives took advantage of our govt & the hospital's foolishness.

 

I read about the surgery as a headline kamalji. Didn't know the whole story.

Now kamalji, I refrain from using ice in India usually. After reading your blog....no way. Now i am terrified and grossed out.

 

Dear Mr Kamalji,
When I was thinking why Kamalji is not visible in IL you are coming back with a bang like Arnab Goswami.
We all read about the surgery and the ungrateful behaviour of the patient's sister.
The other news is like a bombshell and quite shocking.
Though we don't eat from any road side eateries or drink juices I am worried about those who eat and drink juices or the sugary cool drinks.
PS

 

Ingratitude is putting it lightly...after all the money and special treatment given to them,
really pathetic response from the sisters.

 

Kamalji are you suggesting that we might have unintentionally become cannibals by drinking sugar cane juice? Something from the corpses might seep into the ice and we will blissfully slurp the juice adding some liquified human part to our diet.

 

Dear Kamalji,
Welcome after a long time. We missed you.
Read about the obese lady in paper but did not know the details.
Why would our people pamper those who come from treatment from abroad? Here tge poor or lacking so much of health care!!!!
The sisters and family members behaved nasty. They went to some other country? Good riddance.
Now I know the reason why street food, especially pani poor tastes good (l never ate, people told me. I cannot put the whole thing in mouth in one go, especially in front of others). Knowingly , people still eat them!
Source of ice is always full of doubts.....but never imagined it can be from corpse storage!
Hope we would see you often here.

Dear Kamalji,

There is a TV program called Extreme Makeover in the US. Primarily, it is an advertising campaign for various products and services and they select people at random to change their life totally. There are multiple products and services involved and all of them are provided for free to a select individuals from different part of the US. Even though this program is for advertising products and services, those who get those benefits are overwhelmed and cry out of gratitude most of the time. There are negative coverage in the internet about this program as well from time to time. But overall, when someone gives something for free, what is there for anyone to complain about? Either you accept it gracefully or walk away totally.

I already buy water when I visit India and definitely don't take ice. I used to take sugarcane juice when I was in Mumbai but at that time, my immunity worked fine. Having lived here in the US now for 22 years, I can't take that chance now.

Dear Kamalji,

The discussion of being grateful is been in my thought. This is the period, where I live kids are getting their school report and parents consultation are being conducted. it must be noted that, in this part, primary school kids do not have exams but they are being accessed by their teacher continuously and their report will always be constructing, positive. I got mine from my boys, I acknowledged the report and with gratefulness and profoundly thanked their teachers. Yesterday, I met up with two other mums from my elder son's class. They were pretty upset and told me this report is useless unless they specify which level is my kid is in and so on. An apparently, they have written back their thoughts to the relevant teachers. They have also mentioned that hey wont be their kid's teacher next year so it does not matter how the teacher takes the feedback. I was bowled over to see their angriness and frustrations. They are comparing how they received their reports back home when they are kids. I presume that India and Srilanka has a similar structure. Here, even though I am judging, my point is that am I missing something? Why I didn't feel like that. I felt the need for judging when they are not even thankful for the teachers for all the hard work they have done over this academic year. I know I am wrong but then I am realising every person's expectation is different. May be that person who underwent the treatment and their family is thinking they deserve more than this??????? Is it wrong to be grateful for everything and by doing so will I miss seeking best for my kids? I am puzzled....
Cheers
