Hi Vinay and Rashmi!

I am so happy that things seem to be going so well. Hopefully everything will just be uphill from here--you both deserve nothing less.
I'm looking forward to seeing you both, happy and healthy. I will most likely visit Alice for Thanksgiving, so maybe we can hang out then.

Love,
Arlet

I am so happy for you, Vinay! And Rashmi too...You and your team have truly been an inspiration in this fight!
With loads of blessings,
Shilpa

May God divert my share of energies towards Vinay . Hope you recover soon and Rashmi has a reason to thank God and the donor !

Cheers
Prakash.

I have been going through a very scary phase for the last 3 months. The doctors are yet to come to a diagnosis ... when I feel despondent and hit teh rockbottom of hope, I coem and read your websites. I gain strength from what you are going through and how bravely and gracefully you are facing it. I pray that you recover soon. You will be an example to many of us.

Vinay we are with you and we are confident that you will get over this pretty soon. Luv swati nd arun

Hey Vinay,

I am very happy to read the good news. It's just wonderful seeing you recovering. I know as time goes by you'll get stronger. I just wanted to say good luck on your recovery, my prayers and thoughts are with you and your family. I also pray for others that are in same position as you recovering or trying to find a donor. I pray for everyone. I ask that you continue to set up drives for other people who are looking for donors. Don't give up this what you started, instead keep it going so more lives are saved. Remember you are the Hero :) I just DONT want people to move on and forget that so many people are looking for donors. I want them to continue working to helping others. I will continue to advocate on the importance of saving lives. I have set up information bulletins at my local temple about blood and bone marrow drives. If everyone tries to do something, we all can make a Big difference. I wanted to say Big Hugs for you and your family. Take Good Care.

Best Wishes,
Alpa

Hi Guys,
Sumanth and I are extremely happy and relieved to note that things are getting under control. All the best in everything. Rashmi, as always, please let me know if I can be of any help in any way. Take care for now...

Bhuvana

Hi Vinay,
Great news! Reading Bharath's message made our day. Its so exciting for us to share the news of your transplant with those we know. Wishing you and Rashmi all the best. Thanks for keeping us posted B. God Bless.

On a sun-shine day,
Like this one today,
When you guys are ready for your first walk,
May you find flowers and butterflies.
Simple smiles from daisies,
Ferns that stand beside.

And the calm of knowing,
All's well, and here's
Joy on earth.

Hi Vinay and Rashmi
I have never met or seen you both. But for some reason, I find myself waiting for an update about your recovery.Vinay, I feel very happy to see you getting ahead in your recovery process. And Rashmi, you are a role model for all the married women out there.
Keep it up!

you know ever since i found out about the transplant and the donor I have yet to have one bad day... why you may ask?? because vinay- you and rashmi have taught me to appreciate life and smile as much as you can. Afterall you and your wife after all this have a huge smile on your face and to me you've tackled life and fought so hard and we along with you. I am so happy for you and I'm not sure if vinay is able to read these messages as he is in recovery and exhausted but you do have a lot of reading to catch up to haha... I wouldn't doubt you read more now than when you were in med school with all the comments that continue to come in.

Awaiting yours and Sameers recovery. You guys truly bring great happiness in my life to know that two ambitious wonderful people have made such a difference and that we have individuals like you to represent our community.

Looking forward to seeing more posts!!!

Dear Vinay and Rashmi,
Great news. Will continue to pray for a complete recovery for Vinay. May God bless you.

Vinay,

Haven't seen you in years since Berkeley and the days of Unit 3 but I wanted to wish you well on your recovery. Its obvious you have all the love in the world from your family and friends but i figured another asian in the support mix cant hurt.

Hey Vinay,
I've never met you or your wife, but found out about you through this website. Since then, I've been checking for updates daily but this is the very first time I'm actually writing a comment. I can't express in words how happy I am for you. So good to hear that things are looking positive. I'm praying for your speedy recovery. Rashmi, you are just an amazing person and a good example of a committed wife. Get well soon Vinay!

Take care.

Nice to see things are looking good!

Dear Vinay,
We both are so thrilled after reading Bharath's posting and actually after 10 months shedding tears of joy. As much as we can't get over this scientific marvel that is taking place in your system we must say that the LAKERS tea shirt you had on before heading into bmt must have contributed to your victory. Our sincere pryers to GOD that you keep getting better and better and get back to good old days. Lots of love to you and Rashmi with huge hugs,

Nalini aunty & Shankar uncle

I really hope you feel better soon so you could go back home to your family. I will pray for you to be back on your feet in no time :)

Hey Vini,

Just wanted to share a dream I had about you last night: It seems I am coming to the hospital to visit you and the nurse tells me you have gone partying! I woke up feeling so good. I am sure this dream will come true and we can all party together! I better learn some dance steps before then!

Love you,
Lakshmi auntie.
