A GRAND LOVE STORY

The sun was slowly setting down and my phone rang. I picked the call to a greatest gift i was waiting for years together… Yes that was the birth of my child, the night lit of all a sudden with joy… It took a 1000 mile travel to see my 🤴. Had entered the hospital with lot of imaginations and i felt blank just before the door were my love and baby were there… Slowly opened the door to see my love lying there with a tired painful but yet as a happy mom. I slowly moved to her and placed a gentle kiss on her fore head… I still had some kind of unknown fear and excitement to see my baby lying just beneath… She slowly directed me to see our prince through her eyes. I could not stop my tears as i neared the cradle. I was a strong person till then but could not stop my tears as everyone around me having a suprised look seeing me cry…I just saw his as a pink doll , i gently touched his hand it just felt to soft like a melting icecream… He was in a deep sleep and i tried to hold him in my arms… The moment he was in my arms i felt happy which could not be measured… Then it was fun all along the few days at hospital then we went back to our home with a grand lunch and reception for our little one… As a part of a regular checkup we took him to the hospital were we had a real shocker of him having just a single kidney… We were not that wealthy to afford a transplantation… As a part of my job and to gain more money for his treatment we both left him with his garbdparents and left to work far away from him. The only point of contact was our video calls… We met him every festival and spent solid time with him… Years rolled in he reached 4 th std as along his grand parents getting old and struggling with him… We decided time has come to go for his treatment and started to put our saving and all loney we could get.. It jus could not make the total we needed… I was struggling everytime he faces a issues if getting tired soon and nor able to play as other childrens… My father left us all once for all at this juncture… We are arranging things for a funeral as i got a call from my doctor saying that my father has donated all his organs… The procedures were taken care by him… After few days doctor called me back stating when would be ready for the transplantation, i just told him about my problems. He then revealed wat happened and why my father donated organs… It was his kidney that is working in my son’s body… For the last 8 years he has been saving own money as well as he has taken to organ donation… I was really shell shocked at first but later i agreed… After few months of my dad’s death, we found a diary in which i found out his whole story almost from my childs birth. Like from when he first held him , the first walk. The first word he spoke etc etc… In those final pages i was moved to gallons of tears for the love he had on my son… It stated that onces my son playfully asked him that if he could die’s he can have his kidney and us near him for ever… And the final note that was written just a day before he left us mentioned that “ Your wish granted my dear , don’t ever feel if you are have any problems in life just tell to me even if am not there, i will always grant you what ever you wish” … I was motionless as much as i do now while writing this… In the era of small families we tend to forget the real love of our grandparents… Love your grandparents as much you do your parents…
