@hemantbuch @Accorhotels Same kind of Ramadan love and respect at @TajHotels lands end - my mother stayed during Ramadan last year and they were kind enough to look after her for sehri and iftaar. They’ve now got a customer for life. Thank you

I usually don’t post family stuff. But I am determined not to let my Chacha and Chachi be forgotten, gone suddenly, as one of the many deaths in India. So this is my Zaid chacha and Shehnaaz Chachi. He was my dad’s older and only surviving brother. They died within 48 hours

@drgurner @austin_rief Terrible advice for a young man too. I never did this. Why devalue yourself as just a note taker ? How about offer unique insights/ come up with research on stuff that was raised / ask Qs after ?

This pic is at their anniversary earlier this year. They had no kids. They were healthy and no major underlying conditions. The situation in Aligarh is so bad that we had to chose who goes to hospital - there are no hospital beds and we were struggling to arrange O2.

Zaid chacha was AMU cricket captain in his youth. He was not only my uncle but my buddy in Aligarh. He would entertain us when we would visit as kids on his scooter rides, wrestling or just being silly. When my kids grew up and visited he did the same fun stuff with them.
