27. Herculian task to wake her up from her nap...


Interviewee: Ushatai (84 yrs), Interviewer: Vasant Kelkar (81 yrs) Date: Aug 18th, 2011

Ushatai had visited Vasant Kelkar and his wife with her daughter at their Pune residence.

She has lived a happy fulfilling life. Although she had three daughters and a son she always secretly wished that she could give a brother to her elder son then all the siblings would have brothers and sisters. (What a noble thought!) One of her happy memories is when her younger son was born. She had gotten her wish and now the family was complete.

She also very fondly narrated an incident that happened when she had come home after delivering her youngest son. It was afternoon time and she was taking a nap. The neighbor had returned from running errands and wanted the house key that normally would be left with Ushatai for convenience of the other family. Ushatai was so fast asleep that the neighbor had to perform herculean task just to wake Ushatai up from her deeeeep nap.

Ushatai still remembers the incidence that brings a smile to her face even today!
