7x7x7x7


This is in response to  the prompt 7x7x7x7x7

The seventh book on my  bookshelf  is 'Divine Experiences' written by K. R. Vaidyathan.  It is a  publication of Bhartiya Vidya Bhawan., New Delhi. 
 On page  seven the words in the seventh line  are "As per Doctor's advice we asked our children to come back" .
            

7x7x7x7


   Shobha was ill for the last several years.
  During summer holidays her grandchildren  came and stayed with her.
  The next day, after they left, she was admitted to a Hospital in an unconscious state.
  As per Doctor's advice we asked our children to come back.
  The children saw their  grandma in the ICU, frail and feeble.
  Her eyes  gleamed, with  a faint smile on her face.
  The Doctor said ," The worst is over. Now she will live".

    Very happy to know that the story ended well. Grandparents are wonderful people. I had the privilege of knowing only one grandmother. But today I can see the joy that my parents and inlaws bring to my kids.

      Thanks Cynthia for stopping by. I know that grandparents are more attached to the grandchildren than their own children.
