Last sunday we had a gr8 time at Le Meridien, Bangalore.
My sole motive to go was to meet my virtual social contacts in real.
Amazingly excitement pour in when I texted Einstein Jerome Sir if he was present in the conference.
For me the day got better after meeting him. His charismatic personality with his sense of humor made my day. So humble and down to earth. :)
He took his valuable time for us to introduce Ajay and me to everyone present.
Ah!! First one to be introduced was Ketan.. whom I call Little Master.. albeit I guess he is few months elder to me.. :P The only thing which I heard from his mouth is "Tune kafi weight put on kiya hai.. " Ha ha.. I came to know a secret about him from Einstein Sir.. Not about his special person whom he keeps describing every now and then on FB but that if anyone wants to know his whereabouts just login FB .. :P
Later met Suresh Babu Reddy Sir, Parthipan Sir with whom I might have had a word for around half hour about professional issues and last but not the least Dhanajeyan Jayavel who was so busy during the whole conference. :)
Oopsy the most applauded personality I couldn't forget to mention - Mr. Thiaga Rajan. His words touched everyone's heart and also gave a bang in our heads about the happenings. The best advice given by him for all physicians was to focus on research and important issues. I don't remember his exact words but I'll pen down what I perceived: Physiatrist, Physicians & Surgeons should focus more on finding out cure for cancer, stroke, diabetes etc and not to fall into pity issues about grabbing patients of back pain, osteoarthritis, etc etc.
So much to write but I guess will make it easier by adding a token of appreciation in the form of video for all the BPN members to organize such a gr8 event. Thank you million times.
P.S. Bangalore was never my choice to settle but after seeing PTs who are so much dedicated towards their work and profession my mind got changed. Now I love Bangalore. :)
