Today, I was at a big hospital in Delhi &, while waiting, heard this conversation:
Doc to 2 young girls: Sorry, take you mom to another hospital immediately. There's no bed here & her O2 is below 70.
Girls, in chocked voice: Kahan le ke jayein?
Doc: Please hurry. She will die 1/n
While one girl starts calling relatives for guidance, second one asks her: Driver (it was an @Uber I think) bahut der se wait kar Raha hai. Mummy ko utaar kar bhaag toh nahin jayega?
Out comes driver & assures them: Aapki maa hamaari bhi to maa hain. Hum kahin nahin jayenge 2/n
He then said he will also start making calls to his driver friends for leads.
I tried to quietly slip him 200 rupees and he refused.
Tells me: Sir, mataji ki Jaan bach Jaye toh usko hi inaam maan loonga.
Suddenly, I was the smaller person standing there. 3/n
