Thank you for holding us in your mind and prayers amidst the busy schedule that provides no respite
We are at Thalavady in our house that Papa built after retirement from Kannan Devan Co. Papa had a very good and well paid job there. The construction that began in 1974 was partially completed in 1976. The family of five stayed here from then onwards. Life was tough with no income and not much savings. We were absolute zeroes. But this was a house of happiness , laughter, faith and prayer in that state of dejection, emptiness and literal poverty.
Then God gave me a good job that sort of stabilised us. But God had other ideas. Tragedy struck.
Mummy had a sudden headache on 14 August 1977 that turned to be Glioma, Glioblastoma, a very virulent and malignant brain tumour. She was 49 when she had the big C. She passed away on 30 May 1978 at age 50.
We gave her the best treatment possible. Vellore. But to no avail.
Papa lived on till 5 April 2008 guiding us, helping us navigate.
We were married on 29 December 1977. 47 years.
Reminiscing reverberating memories that are sustained for ever and enshrined in our beings and would never ever fade away and the ever fresh images that flash through the kaleidoscope of life
Happy new year to you and all at home.
