Dear friends, God is so good to us.My nephew Ash (short for Ashish) and friend Megan arrived safely on the afternoon of Feb 24th. Their train was 2 and 1/2 hours late and I received then at the train station.While I was waiting I took some photos which I will post later on.
Ash brought us lots of gifts , it was like Christmas. The best thing is a commode raiser for Mama. Specialized health care equipment is not easily available in India as it is in Canada.
Yesterday Sonia arrived with her son Abner - and so we are having a mini family carnival. In the evening we went to a very posh shopping mall so close to my house, but for the very first time. I never thought of entering it before. Megan and Ash were so happy, they said it is like a mall in Canada. I took photos with my cell phone.
Then Ash ordered lots of pizzas from Dominoes. We ate so much and have tons of left overs to finish. Oh we are just enjoying ourselves.
Megan loves Allahabad and our food. She likes our cooking. And praise God she has not had any health or tummy problems, I was worried about that. She is drinking our filtered and boiled water too. She loves my dal (lentil soup). This morning we bought a Muslim style curry for breakfast with nan, , it was spicy but Megan ate it and enjoyed it.
Ash and Megan have gone to take a tour of the All Saints Cathedral -a heritage tourist site of our city. We are having our baths and getting ready . Later on we will go shopping in the old part of town.
In the evening I want us to go to the Horticulture and Flower Show. I have so much so share.
Sonia 's cough is better, but she looks quite weak. She needs a lot of rest which is impossible for her.
With all the activity and walking my knees were very strained and I was in a lot of pain. I took Ash 's Tylenol capsules but they did not work, this morning I got my paracetemnol and I am some better.Ha-ha!.
The weather is perfect, we 've had some rain too.
Thank you for your prayers. Namrita is better and misses us all. Ash and Megan had a lovely time with her family for 6 days. They are taking a lot of photos.
Wish we were all together.

A nice update, Amrita! It reads like an excerpt from Little Women or Jo's Boys! We know all the characters as if from a book and are relieved to know everyone is doing OK! :)
Hi Amrita,
I am not able to open my email and also face book accounts. I am unable to read my emails and make new postings on face book. I think it will take some time to sort out this problem.Probably I will have to start a new email Id and face book id.
However, my blog is ok and I will continue to post as usual.
Best wishes,
Joseph
Sounds like a wonderful time together with family...enjoy..can't wait to see the pictures...blessings dear Amrita...I know about the knee pain...it can be so painful...praying God's healing touch for you.
Every day gives us gifts from God's hand. Jesus said also - "Is there a man, who will give the snake for the son, when his son will please for the fish?". Your post is so encouraged.
I have been reading through all the posts I missed while working this last week. I love your photos and love the train shots. I am glad your family made it and it sounds like you will have a great visit.
