12/11/2011 – 5 months of my marriage and suddenly we lost Ma. The irony is that I’m married to a doctor who fought tooth and nail to save her. But the distance of 2250 km rendered us helpless. She lost the battle overnight and by the time we reached my hometown from Mysore, everything was over.
12/11/2026 – 15 years later, my biggest regret is that my son didn’t get to meet my Ma. The pain of losing a parent so early in life never goes away; I’m still learning to live with this grief for life.
