Long Lull...Sunset at Midday!!...

We remember you, Birenbhai,everyday since you left for the heavenly abode on 10th August,2009.But we missed you most today, on your Birthday.
On 14th September, this year you would have completed 60 years-six long decades of service to the humanity.Being in the medical profession, I can vouch that there will be hardly few selfless and noble doctors like you. Your patients and the society is going to miss you even more!
This picture was on the day of inauguration of my Shaishav Children Hospital- on 13th April, 1986. Needless to say that it would not have happened with out you and Nita.Probably I would not have settled in Ahmedabad, even.
The sunset at Dwarka is supposed to be one of the most spectacular in the world.We rushed and sped in our '3738' to catch that at those dying minutes of the evening,some where in the winter of 1994.We could do that.But failed this time.We could not bring you out of coma, which you were battling for almost 3 months. Your death came as a bolt out of blue.Your passing away at this early stage of life was like a 'Sunset at Midday' for all of us.
May your soul rest in peace and may you shower love and blessings on all of us from the heaven!
