Guest guest Posted November 17, 2008 Report Share Posted November 17, 2008 Thanks Ravin. I have been following all the news and articles for the last few months--great contributions and comments by everyone. At present I am settled in Nottingham. Working as a GP--gave up anaesthetics purely for personal reasons 6 yrs ago. Have 2 kids-- Not sure if my daughter would like being called a kid at 15 yrs of age-- Sanaya, and son Sohum 11 yrs old. Hubby is a consultant in Intensive care and Anaesthetics. That should do for now!?!?

Guest guest Posted November 17, 2008 Report Share Posted November 17, 2008 Hello Gursharan How are you doing? Change of surname after marriage is a fact in India at least, though not that common in the western world!!! In fact out here mum has one surname, kids on the other hand--depending on the numbers -different surnames by different partners. So a patient may present with 7 different kids all having different surnames ( i.e --fathers) and mum not having been married to any!?!? It is a shock at first but we are all good at adapting to the system. Female patients get offended if you ask about the male accompanying them --whether he is the husband --more often than not they reply by saying --no he is my partner not my husband?? Yes I did speak to Poonam and Bipin before the the reunion, brought back some good memories of the college days.
