It was Mahavir Jayanti, a holiday on 17 Apr’19. So Air Force bus wasn’t going to hospital. I reached hospital alone early morning. Brother already went back to Kolhapur to join his bank. Mom wasn’t coming to hospital as bus won’t go.
He started having pain around 10AM. At the same time doctor came on round, I informed him about the headaches of past few days. He asked to get an urgent CT scan done. But as it was a holiday, he asked to first check at CT scan centre if it can be done at all today.
I went to check if centre is open and scan can be done. They confirmed if doctor would write urgent on the form then they would do it. Went back to get the form from doctor, then back to centre to submit it, then back to take my father to the centre.
As he was still weak and centre was quite far from ward, MNS asked to take him on stretcher. But my father got angry on this. And finally settled on going in a wheelchair. I took him there, had the scan done and came back. Report was to be given directly to doctor in a few minutes.
