After a wee sleep in, we made our way over to the Si clinic. Vikas has become our best friend. Weaving and ducking through the traffic, I think I left my lunch back there, round a corner than to a halt. we are there !
Upstairs, water and a little wait. Dr Yash and Dr Sudhir are introduced And then it feels real, really real. Where did all the questions go that we had thought of. Papers, photos, signing, passing back and forth and *phew* we had bought everything. Although with the checking and double checking I would have been most upset if something was left behind.
So the next appointment has been organised for Sunday at Lilavati, an hour or so spent with the Dr's has allayed any fears-so far-that we might have had about the sincerity of the organisation. The feeling of family is what I noticed the most. They really care about what is happening, going to happen and can happen. There is more to deal with, but a good..no, a great start.
Back into the throng that is Mumbai and we bundle ourselves into the back of Vikas's car and off again. Thankfully we found (well Vikas did) the Galleria shopping center and we pop in for supplies. It starts to become apparent that somethings in India are remarkably cheaper than back home.
The volume of people and traffic can be a little overwhelming. Short, sharp little trips seem to be our fill of the outdoors for now. It's always a relief to get back to the safety of the hotel. Even with the car check and bag screening to get back in.
For this trip, the Holiday Inn has been great. Seems to be central to most things we need, although we haven't been up to Lilavati Hospital yet. restaurant is great, breakfast has been epic (well for me anyway-I do love my breakfasts) Clean and safe, what more could you ask for.
