Suzanne Today observed at Fortis La Femme and saw a Cesarean. I've just had to look up how to spell it on the internet and never thought it would be spelt like that. Bit hard when came out as someone had moved my slippers (I think). Had to change shoes twice before going into operating theatre. The only slippers I could find were two left feet or two right feet so luckily it was a short distance to walk. I hope I haven't caused problems by removing them as was in a bit of rush to catch up with Dr so hope I didn't miss a left slipper and a right slipper. Found it quite hard changing hospitals as had settled in last place. Alot of the doctors seem nice though apart from one of the female doctors is severe and I feel a bit embarassed and uncomfortable with her. Can't tell you why. One of the typists explained some of the abbreviations in doctors notes. There were some very cute couple of days old babies being fed at nurses station. I'm not sure whether I am going to get to observe as much in this hospital though as they are all private wards. I won't get lost as much though as it is a small hospital. I met co-ordinator for Delhi today for about an hour. She was nice but I probably won't see her again as she is jet lagged and going to Kerala at weekend. Had a long walk back as co-ordinator suggested that could walk it. I either got lost or it was longer than I expected. Had to stop in McDonalds along way to get a coke and a McFlurry. I will probably go red as a tomato with the sun later. Not looking forward to trying to get back to the hospital tomorrow morning. I'm the only one in house tonight I think so going to have dinner out and then update journal and then sleep. Haven't been having as many hours as needed lately. I don't know what it is but nights go so fast and I'm still writing journal at stupid times at night. I think its cause have dinner so late. This is unrelated to travels but I have been accepted to volunteer for paralympic games at olympic stadium. I also went to Iskcon temple again today and watched a light and sound show about Lord Krishna and the values. According to that my soul is going to come back not as a human but as an animal as I eat lots of meat and don't do yoga and meditation. Bit odd as I was the only one watching the show so had to keep sitting down in darkened rooms.

Suzanne Hi Aunty Chris, No problems. My mum told me you were having computer trouble. How annoying. Thank you was an odd birthday. Monsoon rain in the morning. Had a meal at homestay and then I had bought some cake slices for it. Then got some Ferrero rochers from the girl I was sharing a room with (who had unfortunately gone home) and a jewellery box from homestay host family. Saw another c section today. Don't really make comparison that much. Seeing the placenta come out today was the worst part. I am really not sure which part I have enjoyed the most. Had so many experiences in a short time that don't know which has been best. Oooh have a nice holiday where are you going? I come back home on 21st October for two weeks so hopefully will be able to see you before I go off again. Take care. Love from Suzanne xxx
