Deepak Lamba is doing well. The stitches were removed some weeks ago. It has been six weeks since he had his surgery and he will be due for a check up six weeks from now. He has shed 7 kgs and is on a low cal diet. He is now challenging himself to shed more weight, currently at 83 kg, to reach an ideal of 70 kg for a man who is 5’4″, or more precisely, 5’4.5″. Deepak insists that I mention that extra half inch to his otherwise excellent stature!  Most importantly, he is cheerful and back to recounting his stories of events and people. He is a store house if you want to know who did what, to whom and when !! Importantly, he sounds relieved and most relaxed. A good mental temperament goes a long in all such cases!
