damn you luck, find someone else to bother!!!


I am particularly worried about my elder sister.. She has the hardest of luck of all the people I know.. She is having one or other problem to deal with all the time.. When did it all start?? I am sorry I have lost track.. I remember her going to college everyday to study Medicine and returning home in desperate need of some herself..

If you haven't guessed it yet, the problems she deal with on a daily basis aren't related to studies, she is damn brilliant, neither to adjusting in with her mates, she is the sweetest girl you would ever come across, but she is particularly prone to some injury or to some extent to some form of physical illness.. In the initial years she used to come home all bruised.. No she never picks up a fight with people.. She has reserved me for it ..;)

She would fall and hit herself badly.. We would laugh and say that she should be taught to walk all over again for a few days, but as the frequency of hurting self increased we started feeling bad for her.. She would be in pain and we now didn't feel like laughing but couldn't help wondering, why she?? In the entire 1st year of her college life, she did loose many a new dresses to these accidents, that were torn after the accident..


Somehow, the gods did have some mercy on her after making her suffer for three years and she spent the next two years happily without having wounds to nurse and we thought her plight was finally over, but at that that we didn't realise that its just a break and not the end of the ordeal!!

For the past one month, luck has again decided to stand up against her.. One day she came back home with the scar of her old childhood wound looking as if it were freshly inflicted and paining and as she medicated it successfully for a week and about to declare victory, doom struck again!! That day she returned home with a badly bruised arm that had been rubbed along road..


It wasn't properly healed when she came back with an indifferent scar that looked like an insect bite or reaction produced by some chemical.. God only knows what caused it, but it was so damn ugly and she was crying in pain as well as at the sight of the ugly mark.. It took a lot of cajoling to cheer her up and pacify her!! The mark, whatever kinda it was, was showing good recovery and she was finally happy to see it gone yesterday and she was dressed in a new dress to show her upped spirit as she left for her college..
We got up in the morning conversing rather wittily and she was so delighted that she messaged me a thanks for such a lovely start to the day with those teeny nit-wits.. I was too delighted to message her back with a thanks and you started to tickle the funny bone and I just reacted..


I was now waiting for her to return, when she entered with small eruptions all over her arms.. Those tiny painful eruptions.. They were again so ugly and her hands were swollen.. Dad immediately took her to a doctor and got her medicines and since yesterday evening she has visited more than 3 doctors.. She even joked about the fact, how she is famous for all these accidents and illnesses that strike her again and again ... As the doomed doctor who is always in need of medication herself..
Hope that she isn't too irritated when she comes back from this other doctor's ... Also I hope that this hard luck takes some time off and let her be happy for sometime... Get well soon sis..
