All of us had a great time at Dr. Shah’s home today.  We began the meeting with a prayer – Shruti played a Carnatic raga on the violin and sang as well. Shruti has come down from the US to play at a concert in Tamil Nadu and we were fortunate to have her with us.  Dr. Pravina Shah then took us down memory lane explaining how the first national epilepsy day and the performance choreographed by Archana Palekar led to the formation of the support group and the activities that started thereafter.  Members were very happy to meet with Archana Palekar. After introduction, members were asked to play ‘antakshri’ which they happily did till Melvin sang “Laila o Laila”.  At which point I asked Mahesh Naik to dance to the number and he said he would if I would be his Laila! After which everyone ended up dancing – even those who were initially making a fuss!  Of course, a meeting at Dr. Shah’s home had to end with delicious food and happy faces! We rock guys!!!
