Diwali and Karva Chauth Photos - Enjoy!

I wanted to share some good photos taken recently while Mom and Dad are here with us in Singapore. Had the pleasure of celebrating auspicious Diwali and Karva Chauth festivals with them.

check out the new blog post I posted today. 

Sunday, Nov 20 - Update

Well, I am back!  Landed from CA into Singapore on Sat nov 19 morning, reached home by 3 AM.  Spent a day at home with everyone...mom and dad are doing well and recovering fast.  Yday Bhaiya, Preeti Bhabi and Himanshu left for Switzerland for Himanshu's admission into the prestigious hotel management course.  So effective this morning I took over the responsibilities to take care of mom and dad, for a few days.  They should be back on Thu Nov 24.  Anyway, here are 2 video updates from mom and dad.  They are doing well, as you can see it for yourself.  enjoy!

Sat Nov 5 Update

It's been a break of 3-4 days since the last update.  We had a slight issue with mummy's health - she developed acute dehydration due to diarrehea and vomits.  She is fine now.  Attached is the latest video taken this morning when they were down by the pool area.

ipad2 for mummy and daddy

Finally got the toy for mummy and daddy yday evening.  They love it!  With plenty of time on their hands, I think I will finally be successful in getting them to use its imemnse features.  Just in one day, today, we used ipad2 as a music system (I got external speakers as well) to play songs on the net, plus daddy read his hindustan times in the morning (see the photos), and most amazing of all...we used the ipad2 to do a video call with shelly this morning.  That was the best!

monday, oct 31 update

Here is another update from this morning (oct 31).  See the attached video.  A short one but gives a good view into how mummy and daddy start their day after getting up after 630 AM or so.  Doctor has adviced Daddy to be active in this recovery phase, so that he recuperates in a better fashion (than just lying 100% on bed for 6 weeks).  Daddy is anyway eager to do many things always, so being active in this condition is not that unnatural to him.  Mummy is definitely recovering fast and gaining energy that she desperatley needs to get back to normalcy and take care of daddy's health on her own (as best as she can at this age).

mom and dad on sunday oct 30 morning

today morning mom and dad went down at around 7:15 AM by the pool and garden area.  Attached is the video and also some photos I took while they were sitting and relaxing along with bhaiya there doing yoga and brief stretching exercises.  We spent a good 30 mins together down here.  It was very refreshing and relaxing...a great way to start the day.  Plan will be to do this every day.  In fact, sometimes I know Bhaiya even went to the extent of getting tea down here for Daddy (when he was well and walking).  But not a bad idea to try and do that starting tomorrow.
