Toast and Pancakes

Friday started with toast covered with cheese spread, chili, and peanut butter. The taste of this triple threat of toppings, even though unusual allies, prepared me for a hot Indian day. After the usual death defying car trip to the H.V. Desai Eye Hospital I found a Cornea specialist’s shoulder to look over. Dr. Pravnav was very sharp and took pride in his work. He also took the time to explain cases to me and see 30 patients in a couple hours. I saw many post-opt Ptygium cases, cataracts, herpes zoster, 2 teratomas, keratitis, and one Dacryocystitis, trigeminal neuroliga, keratonconus, and possible secondary glaucoma.

Lunch was also another American breakfast food covered in Indian spices. Pancakes dressed in peppers, onions, sauces, cheese and dipped into a very un-maple syrup sauce created another satisfied appetite and confused taste buds.

My plan to blend in is taking longer than expected.
