The latest strike reminds me of the strike last year. This strike too was linked with a hospital trip. This was when Dad had his accident.
The strike was for the Karnataka Tamil Nadu water problem.
The day Dad had his accident was 1st September. On 2nd September he had his surgery.
The surgery was scheduled at 9:30am. Around 10 they took Dad to the theatre and then I was called around 1, to be told that all was well.
I was then asked to come back in the evening. My brother was on his way, so I decided to go home and come back later with my brother.
So I looked for a Uber. Got one and went back home.
Spoke to the maid who said she would be coming in the afternoon.
As soon as I reached home, there was a call asking for me. It was Dad using the mobile phone of a nurse. I told him I could come back later in the bevening with my brother.
Brother came around 3 and we ordered pizza for lunch.
After the maid had finished, me and bro started for the hospital.
That was day one of the strike.
I must have been v lucky, that I had for a taxi while coming home.
There were no cabs. All off the road.
Me and bro took an auto.
We went to the ICU and saw Dad.
Then in his room. There I tried to book a cab.
I was to go back home and bro would stay back in the hospital.
So I tried to book a cab. Nothing. Did an advance Meru booking. That never came.
Finally, took an auto home.
