CARRY ON:

Debate?

Three doctors

1. Nephrologist

2. Cardilogist

3. Oncologist was discussing the benefits over other super specialties in a restaurant.

The cardiologist said “Mine is the best, the person does not suffer much, sudden death or those unfortunate who survive become our bread and butter and we call them for frequent checkup of their stents and cardiac status. Longer they live better for us because of commissions and more sponsored seminars around the world”. He further added while sipping his 100 pipers’ whiskey.

“Cardiologist have a special status in the society, they are very rich, gets frequent Padma awards, well dressed, get married two to three times during their life time. Go on foreign visits very frequently with new girl friends or a new lady doctor, very romantic. Rich people have cardiac problems hence cardiologist are recognized everywhere, we do not travel by trains!” the cardiologist while sipping his Black dog commented.

Nephrologists intervened “With longer life span and diabetes we are having good times of our life. I have three sedan cars in last three years. The patients know, so also their near and dear one’s that the patient is having a borrowed life. Dialysis and kidney transplant patients are everywhere but our patients get poorer and depressed as months roll bye. Unlike Cardiologist people avoid us but we earn at par by visiting half a dozen of hospital doing nothing but earning in crores. If patient dies no one blames us, it gives our patients plenty of time for his future planning and other legal formalities.” The kidney specialist aged 80 years, while sipping soda said because he too has developed kidney failure.

Not to be left behind the oncologist put his foot down and said “You see, once the diagnosis is made we book one apartment at Dubai or Spain, because by the time patient goes to his or her grave our house would be complete. It’s like ‘sentenced to death for some’ !They do not take chances and do whatever is advised, we even get commissions from fruit venders by prescribing dragon fruits,Avocardo,orange colored grapes, black and white apples and imported high protein banana. They do not complain incase of death because the insurance company too got fed up and refused to bear further expenses. The relatives get bankrupt by frequent travel by air.Onchologist are in great demand because they are difficult to get. We charge ten thousand rupees for supervision of one chemotherapy through drips. Earlier day’s people were dying early but now they live longer and make us richer. Tell them ‘miracle’ may happen and go on squzing their money and property.”

                                                                                  The moderator lastly commented “Yes, you three super specialists are now the Brahma—Vishnu—and Maheswar of the society but remember you will not be able to carry your property and gold coins to Swargadwar?”

AVOID CHEMOTHERAPY?

One must avoid chemotherapy and radiotherapy for certain cancers because its a futile effort to prolong life by few months.They are adeno-carcinoma gall bladder,carcinoma pancreas,glio-blastoma multiforme.retinoblastoma,acute leaukemias in old age,carcinoma breast with multiple secondaries.Remember without removal of the primary tumour in toto rest efforts are of doubtful value.Chemo-

kills more people than the primary tumour. Out of all malignant tumours only 10% are curable(5-yrs life)rest 90% die within a year or two with best efforts.If you have enough black money, then go ahead and treat other wise take opium and lead a less painful life.

LOVE MARRIAGE

A love marriage:

The lady from Uttar Pradesh was from a business family and the boy from Odisha from a low socio economical class. They fell in love and got married, love in business. Two years after they had a male child, they named him Sudhir. That small family lived happily in the same ‘Khusi’, apartment where we stayed.

                                                       The mother of the boy came and stayed with the son and his small family. One can say it was a very happy inter-state love marriage. The child started learning his mother tongue as well as Odiya .The grand mother taught him Odiya but his mother taught him Hindi. As the child grew up he would sneak into our house much against his grandmother’s directive and gossip in Odiya and Hindi. From his looks we were sure the child one day would be an intelligent one in future. His mother Ameeta was busy with her business from nine am to eight pm and father Sameer would go out of station very frequently for his official duties. Three years passed by after the child was born. They were living happily but the presence of mother in-law probably resulted in frequent misunderstanding between the couple.

                                                  One fine morning we came to know that Ameeta has run away with her ex-lover, leaving Sudhir and her husband. The child started asking his father about his mother’s where about? Sudhir refused food and started crying incessantly. No amount of consolation could stop his sorrow and vacuum in life. He was told that his mother has met with an accident and is badly burnt and face disfigured. One year later, Sameer got married to an Odiya lady, from his caste. Sudhir refused to accept his new mother; saying that neither she has his mother’s skin nor the beauty. She does not look like his mother, he would repeatedly say. The new mother hypnotized Sudhir with her patience and acting skills which resulted in Sudhir accepting her as a second mother.

“You see doctor, has done plastic surgery on your mother’s face after the burn hence she looks different.” Sameer and his mother who had come back again to settle the new daughter in law in house, repeatedly told Sudhir. Gradually with passage of time the young child forgot his original mother and the new lady became his adopted mother. Now he is four years old and continues to speak fluently in Hindi and Odiya. Ameeta never came back to see her son, they never met again. We were told that the second love marriage went in for more trouble and lastly Ameeta consumed poison and finished her life.

                                         At times Sudhir would come to our house and ask about his mother’s where about? Last time I asked Sudhir about his first mother, he said “she will come suddenly one day—his teacher has told him.”

We do not know when he grows up in to adult hood what would be his reaction to the truth of life; a mother could be so ruthless?

GOOD BYE

GDP (GOLD---DOLLARS---PETROL)

GOLD---DOLLAR---PETROL : People say India has the most intelligent brains in the world but those grey matters can’t solve India’s gasping state due to swinging GDP(Gold-Dollar—Petrol).We do not have any control over these three, then why so many MBAs, Nobel laureates on finance and other highly intelligent brains doing in and out of India? Hopes of India’s survival depend on these three factors! What a pity. Due to cheap rupees our NRIs are doing a very good business in international market! They electronically convert dollars to rupees and keep them in fixed deposits in Indian banks and draw it back with interest, purchase garments and sale it in international market? A novel idea, hello my patriotic friends—have you any solution on these three factors?

Millionaire cricket players of India

The Indian cricket coach gets a huge sum of money but the result is very poor.The top cartoon shows how Indian batsman are ready to face England fast bowlers.Their allegations are --we are selected as middle order batsman but asked to face the first overs in England.They are heroes on docile, lifeless Indian pitch and hardly gets out without scoring a hundred or double hundred !Once they see green grass they faint.
