It was late night and I couldn't sleep. My daughter was suffering 500km away from me.
Adventure course was her long time pending wish. Somehow we couldn't manage it til now and suddenly it was all set. She has to leave before two days of course date with her friend. Before 2-3 days of leaving I found her unusually quiet and not walking properly. Whenever asked she said "Nothing, just skin peeling due to minor injury... see I'm running, dancing, jumping!" Day before leaving I suddenly found her toe skin completely peeled off , 'Oh! why didn't you tell me?' . Ok still we have two days and it will be fine...we all were optimistic, didn't want to miss course.
I was bit worried when i sent her in morning and was relaxed after talk with her on phone, she sounded happy as she has visited museum on the way and got wonderful ideas for drawing and writing. But at night her friend's mother called me her toe's condition is critical, infection spread to other toes too and probably she could not go for course!
Infection!, so it was not just peeling of skin! I have surfed and found it's 'Athlete's foot'! Surprised by name of this disease. Possible?- yes, she is gymnast & have daily workout with socks, higher rate of sweating, swimming ,carelessness and may be injury.
As she is having athletic physique I rarely need to worry. She had injury and her ignorance about fungal infection- but at least timely treatment could cured it. Why she had hide it or did she lie? For a moment I was very much disturbed but when you give some time and think everything seems clear and that's patience we parents needs most. As far as I remember she never lied. Here, it's her optimism+ ignorance that she will recover and she didn't want to drop course at any cost. We are also not different than her...never give attention to miner physical problems and at times overly optimistic.
All is well at end - life is good teacher it teaches through experience!

અરર. હું પણ લગભગ આવો જ હતો. રમતા-રમતા કે સાયકલ પરથી પડ્યા પછી પડેલા ઘા છુપાવવામાં એક્સપર્ટ. મારો સન પણ મારા પર જ ગયો છે, થોડા સમય પછી આપણું ધ્યાન જાય કે - ઓહ, આ તો નવું લાગેલું છે!
છોકરાં તો એવા જ હોય, પણ ધ્યાન રાખવું સારું. આશના હવે તો એકદમ રેડી થઈ ગઈ હશે. એથ્લેટ બોડી આમપણ જલ્દી રીકવર થઈ જાય છે.
હા, એકદમ રેડી... હેરી અને રમકડાં બનાવવા માંથી નવરાશ નથી મળતી, ફરીથી માઉન્ટેરીયરીંગ કોર્સની પણ ઉતાવળ છે...જોઇએ શું થાય છે!
