When the doctor was removing the tumor from most sensitive part of the body, a 10-year-old girl was very happy playing her favorite game on her uncle's phone. The operation was going on and she was in full embrace and was moving the hand and feet in such a way as if she was telling her doctors that whatever they are doing is absolutely fine. 

Yes, there is the case of a Bharatnatyam Dancer Nandini, who is studying in the fifth grade, who suddenly fell sick and then she was admitted to Chennai's SIMS hospital. 

After a brain scan, it was found that in the part of Nandini's brain in has a tumor that controls the movement of the left part of the body including the face, arms, and legs.

Dr. Rupesh Kumar, a neurosurgeon surgeon, told Nandini's family that if the tumor increases, Nandini may have paralysis and she is also at risk of losing her life. So her family members got ready for the operation. 

You will be surprised to know that only two per cent of adult patients have brain surgery without getting unconscious, but this has never been done in case of children.

Initially, the child was a little reluctant, but then the doctors took the help of an uncle, who himself was a doctor, to explain them.

According to the child's uncle, 'When the doctor was removing his tumor, then I was in the operation theater. She was playing Candy Crush on my phone during operation. Whenever asked to move her hands and feet, she did the same. She is a brave girl."

After the operation, Nandin was walking and she has been discharged from the hospital. Nandini has also told the doctors that she will start practicing Bharatanatyam again in a few days.

Check out the Nokia 2, a budget phone with a monster battery

Android Authority Check out the Nokia 2, a budget phone with a monster battery 19 hours ago HMD Global  is slowly building up its portfolio of stock-Android-running smartphones. In addition to the trio of mid-rangers (Nokia 3, 5, and 6)  it launched at MWC , the company bolstered its high-end with the  Nokia 8 , and now the other side of spectrum is getting some attention. Just  leaked by Evan Blass , the Nokia 2 looks… well, like a generic cheap phone. If you have a visceral hate of bezels, you’ll probably want to close this post and move on, but design is hardly the point here. Blass didn’t share any details about the Nokia 2, but we can make some educated guesses based on some other clues we’ve got about the phone. First, you might have noticed that the phones in the leaked renders show October 5 as the date. Dates in renders are often set to match the launch time, but this could be an old render and there’s still time for things to change. Read more Han...

How safe are our kids in schools?

TOI How safe are our kids in schools? 7 hours ago by Praveen Lenka   Whatsapp Facebook Google Plus Twitter Email Linkedin SMS SHARE HIGHLIGHTS Parents’ Suggestions Feedback from parents should be taken in the right stride by school authorities. PTA should have more authority and a right to put their points across in all school matters, especially when it comes to the safety of their children. No child, especially small kids, should be allowed to go alone to the washroom. There should be zero tolerance for non-compliance with child safety guidelines. Official authorities should conduct regular checks in schools to ensure that they have implemented safety measures. Schools should take the help of professional counsellors/psychologists to interview potential recruits. Over the past two days, twin incidents of students getting assaulted in their school premises have been reported from the National Capital. Close on...

THE LOST WORLD ( CHAPTER 12)

CHAPTER XII "It was Dreadful in the Forest" I have said—or perhaps I have not said, for my memory plays me sad tricks these days—that I glowed with pride when three such men as my comrades thanked me for having saved, or at least greatly helped, the situation. As the youngster of the party, not merely in years, but in experience, character, knowledge, and all that goes to make a man, I had been overshadowed from the first. And now I was coming into my own. I warmed at the thought. Alas! for the pride which goes before a fall! That little glow of self-satisfaction, that added measure of self-confidence, were to lead me on that very night to the most dreadful experience of my life, ending with a shock which turns my heart sick when I think of it. It came about in this way. I had been unduly excited by the adventure of the tree, and sleep seemed to be impossible. Summerlee was on guard, sitting hunched over our small fire, a quaint, angular figure, his rifle across his knee...
