This morning we received a call from the priest or Gurukal from the Sri Raja Sakti Nageswary Amman temple in Bangsar where resides Agathiyar, asking about my wife's health. He informed us that prayers were carried out for the quick recovery of my wife, with Balachander Aiya and Sri Krishna performing the weekly libation or Abhisegam to Agathiyar.
Thavathiru Kumarsamy Aiya from the Sri Agasthiyar Ashram at Anuvavi in Coimbatore, performed a puja for the fast recovery of my wife the moment he heard from Sri Krishna that she was hospitalised.

Sanjiv Malhotra from New Delhi messages me every alternate day enquiring about her condition. Local AVM family members call or message to know how she is doing. Many turned up at the hospital and later at our home to visit her. Srimathi Santhi Balachander, Srimathi Malathy Rajah and Srimathi Sri Devi Krishna took turns to cook food for her while at the hospital and upon arriving home. Srimathi Santhi Balachander volunteered to care for her throughout the night at the hospital for two consecutive nights. Srimathi Gayatri Kathiresan too stayed to look after her.
Everyday Dr Lacumi from the hospital dropped in to look at her, assist and advise, and would brief us over the phone too, although my wife was not her patient. Dr Jana from a nearby hospital unit, too dropped in and continued monitoring her health through the phone. Dr Mrs Shanga from another hospital dropped in and brought some cheer to us too.
Many friends and relatives prayed for her fast recovery in their own way at their homes and in temples.
My family and I are truly humbled by the extent of love and care showered by all these good folks that we met over these few years and have become part of our extended family. To all of them we bow our heads in gratitude and thank them multifold for all their prayers, assistance and moral support during this trying times.
Most of all a big thanks goes to our heavenly father, the most compassionate Agathiyar who has been with us like a shadow, caring for us and saving us at times of danger. No amount of gratitude or thanksgiving on our part can repay or balance the bountiful grace that he keeps showering on us.
Our mantra for now and forever is "Thank You Agatheesa", "Thank You Agatheesa" and "Thank You Agatheesa".
