'Amma ' I called out trying to gain strength from within.But that day Amma came close and squeezed by and said 'Don't worry by child everything will be alright'.I swallowed a big lump in her throat and looked at the ceiling .I felt running away .For the first time I was in tears as all her bravo fled when nurses took me to the operation theatre. Don't think it was fun journey .The Operation Theatre stared at me in joy .It was a dim little room .As I went near the Operation Table the table came me a cold look.I feared at lot and looked around some familiar face .But none of them were there .Feeling dejected I finally allowed nurses to put on the cold bed IE Operation Table.I was wrapped in green clothes I felt like a chill run down by spine as the devil astheasia was injected by the doctors around me even after my countless amount of protesting.I felt like screaming for help as none of the doctors and nurses were making feel comfortable.Until the main doctor came in and stood besides and commended the others doctor to be gentle with me as I was merely a 3 year old .
Standing near my head the main doctor smiling asked me "Are you Afraid of this things happening around you in the darkness"."Won't you be my brave girl".
Looking at him with black expression .I just gave a warm smile at him and allowed them perform the action as I went to another world because that day I realized that I won't have a normal childhood like others had as I was going to unique .After performing operation on me for about 8 hours for some hip joint dislocation . The main doctor again asked smiling me "Are you Afraid of this happening in the darkness around you " .At that point of I could not understand whatever he was saying and I just replied that I am fine and was taken to my to my hospital room. First It was pleasant but as the days grew by I wanted to get out of this place.

But Today when I rewind those memories now a shiver run throws my spine and I wish no other child should suffer like this .
