My Most Memorable Day #Together

Throughout life I have had many memorable events. The memorable times in my life vary from being the worst times in my life and some being the best, either way they have become milestones that will be remembered forever.
As described in my earlier post my relationship with my grandmother is not a usual one.

Having a single dad I was bound to lack motherly feelings, but my granny never let that happen.

I consider my granny as my mother itself.

It was some years back, she started feeling a little sick. Had constant fever. Gradual rise and fall in temperatures.

Didn’t gave a much thought and got an appointment to a doctor who practiced just nearby.

He gave her the regular medicines and we returned back home.

But her health didn’t change.

I clearly remember an incident which happened.

My granny was in the bathroom brushing her teeth I was in the room next to it.

The door of the bathroom was a bit open.

I saw her getting all dizzy.

I ran to hold her, as soon as I held her she fainted in my hands.

I was just 15 at that time. I screamed for my brother to call the doctor immediately.

We got her admitted in the hospital where the doctor took some tests.

The results showed positive for dengue.

And the doctor right in front of me told my dad that the WBC count is lower than 7000 (for which I googled a normal person has WBC count in millions).

The doctor said that things are not in his hands completely.

His words were “chances of survival are too low”.

Listening to him saying these , I was devastated.

I got into instant tears.

All the memories started to flash right in front of my eyes.

The ward boy standing next to me said “Yeh rone ka waqt nhi hai beta,jaake blood bank main B-ve ka inquiry karo”
(translation – its not the time to cry ,go and inqure for a B-ve type of blodd in a blodd bank”

So my brother started visiting blood banks at 8 pm.

And I was trying to find a donor amongst my friend and family.

It was God’s blessing or mere luck don’t know but a person in his twenties called me saying he was a 
B negative type of blood group and he got my number from one of my school friend.

Gasping in tears I told him to come at the hospital as soon as possible.

He reached within 10 minutes a later got to know that he was already on his way when he called.

The doctor did his job by transfusing the new WBCs form the donor to my grandmother, now all we could do is pray.

Didn’t sleep at night was just waiting for doctors report.

Next morning the doctor rushed in early and hugged me tight saying “there is nothing to worry, she will recover her health in few days till then she needs rest and good diet”.

I was so relived at that moment of time. And happy tears started rolling all over my face.

She is now fit and fine.

My dream 24K home with Porcelanosa

Building a home is surely one of the most complicated as well as important jobs of life.

And only few get what they had in their mind.

This job is made much simpler for us by  http://www.24kliving.com/ and http://www.porcelanosa.com/gb/

24k living provides us with amazing apartments from 1bhk to 4bhk at amazing rates and aminities.

Porcelanosa provides with the furnishing of the flats.

From flooring to the complete furniture u get it all here.

I always had a dream that my house would be one like we see in Hollywood movies…with beautiful textures on the walls and glossy finish on furniture but thought it is not possible to get such designs .

I was wrong though. Porcelanosa’s products reminds me of the movie Titanic..

Everyone remembers the first class lounge and the hotel shown in the movie!
Yeah its that great.

And talking about the options, there are more options than you can imagine of.

Porcelanosa gave me a choice of selecting from their products and build my dream home.

When I visited their website I literally got Goosebumps ! The products available there just reminded of a house in some Hollywood movie. Yes that elegant and sophisticated!


My selection from the website…

1.Tiles





    This includes all the sections as of the walls, floor, textures etc.
    The wooden finish looks amazing! 

    2. Kitchen



    According to me kitchen should be as simple as possible but with the same time it should have a classic finish!

    3.Bathroom


    I am not a bathtub guy…I need a shower that’s for sure! If I have this bathroom in my house I would never get out of my house! :P 





    Awesome shower !
    This will make me forget about all my tension and reduce my stress for sure!


    4. Sanitary



    Sanitary-ware is important for me. Although I don’t have many specifics about it, it’s still important. Essence-C is perfect according to me. Nothing too fancy but you can definitely marvel at the graceful design .

    5.  The wardrobe


    Wardrobe I think is more of a necessity than just a luxury item.
    I need a spacious wardrobe looks do matter a bit though.

    6.The closet





    And lastly this closet… My first reaction after seeing was “OMG!” .It is so amazing!
    Everyone wants a closet where you can walk around and try on your cool stuff and you get a hidding spot from everyone when you want to spend some alone time:P


    So this completes my entire selection.It isn't everything but all the needs which I care for.
    I know its not so easy to achieve this dream so fast but its not so bad to dream big!

    This post has been written as a part of Indi-Happy hours  on Indiblooger in association with Porcelanosa


    Hope you like this post!



    The Domex Toilet Academy

    In last two centuries we as Indians have reached not only to the Moon but also Mars and on other hand we still have villages here with no electricity, no water facilities ,poor health care etc.
    One of the major issues in India today is sanitation.
    During independence only 3% of total houses in India had private toilets in their houses. Today we have progressed a lot in terms of infrastructure development but there are many villages which do not have toilets and neither the people there are educated enough to understand the importance of a proper sanitation.
    Sanitation across India is very poor with the national average for sanitation cover at 38%. Although the Indian Government has used – and continues to use – its tax resources to help alleviate this situation (and puts a large sum every year towards better drinking water supply and household sanitation) on the ground the population clings to age old cultures.
    This is mainly due to a lack of understanding about the need for hygiene and sanitation and a general lack of awareness about the best way to improve their position and as a result, enjoy better health. Outside assistance has to be targeted. It must complement and support what the National and State Governments are doing. Introducing benchmark standards, new but appropriate technology and providing capacity building for the many NGOs that are helping to implement the government programs are but a few of the ways to help.


    Why is Total Sanitation a must ?
    • ·        Causes most deaths due to gastro-intestinal diseases, jaundice, worms etc.
    • ·        Expenditure on medical aid cuts the poor man’s pocket
    • ·        Education suffers because children cannot attend school
    • ·        Adolescent girls & women do not have privacy & dignity
    • ·        Sanitation affects all Millennium Development Goals
    • ·        Sanitation is Multildimensional
    • ·        Multiple Impacts and Determinants
    • ·        Poor Sanitation Impacts Health particularly of Women and Children Diarrheal diseases resulting from poor sanitation and hygiene kill more than 400,000 persons in India every year.
    • ·        Poor Sanitation Impacts learning ability - Study in Alwar, Rajasthan showed school toilets increased enrollment by 11%
    • ·        Poor Sanitation Impacts Nutrition
    • ·        Poor Sanitation Impacts Environmental Pollution


    The Domex Toilet Academy

    This team have taken an initiative to promote and encourage people in rural areas to construct as well as maintain a proper toilet in every home .If not possible in every household than a toilet atleast in the vicinity.

    Kya aap apne Bacche ko deti hai poshtic aahar?

    The title of this page is from a very famous add of some milk suppliment which i dont remember.

    I am sharing a very sad story of a 2 and a half years old of my neighbour.
    my neighbor has 2 kids both are of roughly same age.

    I think one is 4 and other is 2 years old.

    It was a Monday morning their parents are both working so they leave them to a baby sitter early morning.

    The younger one had just learnt to open the door.(Yes he is so young.)

    The baby sitter went into the kitchen for some work as she claims leaving the infants alone in the hall.

    The younger one went inside the bathroom opening its door and sat inside a bucket as always so as to bath.

    Accidentally someone had left the geyser on (I dont know who) .The geyser was on for more than 1 hour.

    Now he turned the tap open.The hot boiling water fell directly on his tiny fragile body and all he could do is scream.

    The sitter heard his scream almost after 20 seconds and rush into the bathroom.

    The older one (I dont know how he got the idea at this young age) barged into my apartment for help.

    We immideatly called an ambulance and then called their mother.

     At the hospital she reached in tears and all worried about her child.

    The doctor concluded by saying his 80% of the body is burnt and it will take a months period to recover that too if he is in intensive care.

    Now that whole month i saw her at hime holding the kid in her hand and never leaving him away from her sight.

    She also had to quit her job for the same.

    I could see the heat faced by the child was getting transferred to her .

    More the pain he felt more she wept and fell ill. 


    She had fever rising up and falling down periodically..

    You must be thinking where is the father in all this.He too was worried (obviously) but according to me,the pain a mother goes through when her child is hurt cant be compared to any pain. 

    I could even listen to the child screaming and shouting for days and could just imagine the pain he is going through.

    (I cant display the images because it would be a violation to their privacy but I was shocked seeing them .I literally got froze for 5 seconds or so. )



    Children are the joy of the family.

    If they are sick no one in the family can enjoy anything in their life.
