Its 31st Dec 2008 , 6 in evening , we are looking forward to rocking party in evening at Dr Diwedi,s place . At Dr Dwiwedi everything is cool and calm . Preparation for party at his house which is above NH, are in full swing . China is being polished, table is being laid ,flowers are being arranged and the mood is upbeat. Kitchen is full of activity with snacks being prepared , salads being cut , dishes being prepared. aroma is filling all your senses. Dr Dwivedi has not done any routine surgery today so as to be free of any tensions in evening. Here I would like to introduce U to Dr D formally . Dr D is a renound surgeon of city and his wife is Gynaecologist .They have a flourishing practice and run a NH in heart of city.
Dr D has just finished the rounds and is settling to see OPD. He has taken early round today . Everything seems normal , even Vimla is OK.
Vimla a 22 year girl was married last year to Shyam a clerk in Bank posted in Meerut. She became pregnant early in marriage. She was very happy , Shyam was looking after her wll . In late pregnancy she came back to his father,s house in city and when labour pains started on 31st dec 2008 early in morning she was shifted to Dr D NH for delivery. When Dr Mrs D saw her in morning and did routine Ultrasound she found fetus in distress. As it was precious baby it was decided to bring out the fetus by surgery without wasting time. It was time of stress for family as every thing was going on well but her mother shyamo had great faith in her godess Shakumbhari devi and she tied a sacred thread to her daughter Vimla. Dr D is expert surgeon and surgery went like clockwork . The fetus was delivered in 10 minutes and it was over in 20 minutes . Neelam was out of OT in half hour with baby boy and whole family was full of joy and happiness, perfect to welcome 2009. It,s 6.30Pm in evening and Dr D had allowed to take orally few minutes back when he came to take rounds ,so she is sipping tea that she suddenly feels sudden heaviness in lower chest and slightly out of breath.
Dr D is called .He arrives in few minutes and finds the patient dyspnic and out of breath. He has a gut feeling that something is very wrong .He immediately calls up physician Dr P his trusted friend and anaesthetist Dr Chandra . Both arrives in 10 minutes .By that time patients have been put on Oxygen and emergency drugs. ECG is done and Dr P rules out any heart problem. Chest is clear and the possibility of bronchial asthma is ruled out. There is no history of asthma. Her BP starts falling and she now is gasping for breath. A panic sets in relatives of patients .As Dr D try to calm everybody he himself is worried.
Immediately cardiologist is called and he excludes cardiac causes. Anaesthetist reaches and pt is shifted to ICU. Emergency tests done and it is decided to check for bleeding again. It is now 9Pm .Pt is being shifted to OT and calls are being made to cancel the party. The cook is ordered to stop the preparation .The atmosphere gets gloomy suddenly. Pt is put under anaesthesia and surgery is under way. Atmosphere in pt room filled with relatives is tense. All faces who were smiling and laughing are worried at events. Lights are turned off and there is tension everywhere.Even after surgery the patients condition worsens and it is decided to shift the patient to higher centre.Ambulance is called and Dr D accompanies the patient to higher centre.
It is 12 night on new year day and Dr D is in ambulance with serious patients. The house is in dark and everyone is tense.
Welcome 2009.
