Piyush was 4 and half years when first time ALL was diagnosed. He had undergone treatment (chemo therapy) at Apolo Hospitals - Delhi. Piyush took it very well. No one could make out that young boy undergone such traumatic treatment. All the time he had kept his spirit high. Here is the clipping captured after one year of chemo therapy.
Thank you all for sharing our grief and tears. We are really touched by all your messages and mails. Though for many of them, we never met or spoke, but still we feel everyone is like our OWN and very close family members. This how Piyush brought us so close. He made it sure that papa and mom are getting enough support from whole world.
This picture and the previous Picture were captured in Mussoorie. After the first diagnosis, Piyush was too much tired of Chemo and the medicines. So he wanted some change. So before shifting from Delhi, we had been to places like Mussoorie. There he could find traditional dresses available in few of the shops. So he liked this one most.Â
Today it is exactly one month over since the time he left us. But grief and the ache does not seems to be tapering down a bit. It’s like a BIG hole in our heart. It never heals away as long as we live.  He has left behind so many memories, we just keep on watching at his video clippings, photo’s toys, books, paintings etc. Evevning when we see / hear his friends playing in our society, somewhere we feel we can hear his voice. What a days were those! As soon as I come from office, he used to see my from distance and used to hide himself immediately. He expects me to search him. If i fail to search, he used to run towards me and clings on my sholder. He used to feel proud of doing that infront of his friends! All have become memories only. There is BIG VACUM without him.
Last week there is another tragedy struck in our family. My father-in-law also passed away due to severe heart attack. This is really another BIG blow to Swati who was trying to cope up with the life. I dont know why so much testing? Why HE is so harsh on us?
I have started my work since Monday. Somewhere we have to make start. There has been lot of support from my office also. Trying to move on with the life. Thank you so much for consoling us and sharing our grief.
Thank you so much for all your consoling words which is giving us strength. We are still trying to cope with the situation. Today we are back to Pune house. Every where he has left his strong memories. The moment we entered society’s main gate, we went back 4 months past.. everytime when ever we go out and come back home, he used to get down at the main enterence of the society itself and and run infront of car. Before entering home, he used to call all his friends with loud voice… He used to tell us to go ahead and he would come home after meeting all his friends… He loved Siddarth Nagar so much!
This clipping was taken just 4 months before the diagnosys of relapse ALL. Though he could run fast but could not win over destiny….. His favorite Pink Shirt and light gray pant..you can make out easily..
This is one of the best dance program Piyush had participated. This dance was performed during Ganapathy festivel at our Siddarth Nagar Society. You can find all his pet pals :). Well, but how to identify our little heart? Very simple…please observe, the one who is singing the song as well and dancing fluently is our Piyush. Still could not find?…Orange shirt, front row, From the left, third boy….and left side of the yellow shirt friend… Here is the link.

The video quality is not very good, but I have another video of the same dance, which I will be posting after compressing it.
 
Before the transplant, Piyush was free to move around and eat his likings. He enjoyed ice cream lot. Ice cream was one of his favorite items.. This is the pic taken while enjoying icecream at Santosa - Singapore.
Always Piyush loved painting. Here is a clipping when he was deeply engrossed in painting. This clipping was captured 3 weeks AFTER the transplant. Looking at his activities, we never ever had thought about the end 
Another memories which always keeps him ever green….
Thank you so much for giving us all the courage and sharing our tears. All your messages / mails strenghten our feeling that Piyush is alive and he is with us all the time….Another link…. Again Bird feeding. He really enjoyed every moment of life.
I have captured Piyush when he had opportunity to feed birds in Singapore bird park. I have uploaded video clipping in youtube. Here is the link….
