Vision

My grandma's cataract operation went off very well. She had her review today and got a clean chit.


We seem to be great patrons this month- first my FIL for both eyes and now my grandma for one eye. I must say that for all her timidity, she was hardly tense as compared to my FIL who is a good 10 yrs younger than her!!

Yesterday Anush was feeding paati snacks despite the latter's protests.
This morning, she was asking her " You can see me better now?"

Anush and she do kolams together
When paati prays, Anush rings the bell and says slokas in gibberish and makes paati repeat
When paati writes her daily Shri Sita Rama jayam Anush "helps" by scribbling along
Anush insists on eating mangoes like paati does- whole, no civilised little pieces- not a pretty picture this :-))

I always feel really nice and warm to see them bond as though they belong to the same age group.
