Dabangg - A memorable day

Had a memorable day today. I almost lost my scooter, that too because of my carelessness. I parked my scooter in the parking area at Shiv Cinema, Dharan where Dabangg was being shown. I forgot to pull the key and keep it in my pocket. The excitement of watching the movie overlapped the sense of not having the bunch of keys in my pocket.

As soon as movie came to an end, I found out that I had no keys. Damn! I was sinking into the sense of doom. My wife had no words to say. I ran into the parking area, and to my surprise, the scooter was missing from the spot I had last left it. All I could think was of the hundred twenty thousand rupees, which we had saved together to get the scooter. Together with the scooter, my data in the pendrive, the keys to my rooms were all gone.

As I was running here and there in frustration, the security guard asked me if I had lost my scooter ! I was like.. 'ya, where's my scooter?'

He gave me my keys and showed me my scooter, which was parked on the opposite side of the parking area. I had no words to thank him and all I was doing was holding his hands and shaking them. It was like losing a hundred thousand rupees and then earning it back. I took out my purse and gave him all the cash I had (six hundred rupees) and then rode back to my residence listening to my wife's noble words. :)

Interesting. So nice that the security guard used his sense and performed his duty honestly and the way he was supposed to do so. Forgetfulness and carelessness leave no human alone. But the question really is: What kind of society are we living in where we have to be afraid of loosing bikes just because we forget keys in there at the parking lot? Lets hope things change for good in future :)

HIV/AIDS: FAQ

Q. What is HIV ? HIV is Human Immuno-deficiency Virus, (a disease of humans where there is deficiency of immunity). It is a RNA virus. It is a special kind because it forms DNA from RNA (generally RNA is formed from DNA), this is due to the presence of the enzyme called reverse transcriptase. HIV belongs to the 'retrovirus' family, so the therapy against this virus is called 'anti-retroviral therapy.' Q. Then what is AIDS ? AIDS is Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome which means a collection of symptoms and infections resulting from the damage to the immune system caused by the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).

Many bacterias, viruses and fungi, which rarely infect normal human beings can easily infect the patients in AIDS due to HIV. So, a person who has r

Innocent but Positive

Meet baby boy Himal, from Jhapa. He is just 10 months old, and was in our Paediatrics ward when I was posted there. He was admitted to investigate for his recurrent severe pneumonia. After admission, a proper medical history was taken. Family history revealed that both his parents died due to complications of AIDS. He has a elder brother, just 6 years old, who has recently been tested positive. Both the boys live with their grandmother who has no source of income and no family support. The reason for the baby boy's recurrent pneumonia was apparent, but I was waiting for the test results with crossed fingers. The results came, it was positive for HIV. But there still remains a small hope that it might be the antibodies from the mother's blood that would clear off after he is about 2 years of age. When my seniors were investigating more and trying to fit him into a classification of HIV, I was thinking about the future of the boy. How could his parents be so ignorant? They alre
