...email dt 10 August 2012 from Maxwell to Lionel (...also copied to all classmates for their information too):
Dear Lionel,
Learnt from Arun Talwar that you were scheduled to undergo surgery on Aug-06 for appendicitis plus a prostate related intervention.
Hope all's well, the surgery was a success, and you are recovering well....
For some reason, he (Arun) got to read your email only on Aug-07; and hence he (Arun) was looking for a telephone number to contact you. Apparently the numbers already on record were not being responded to.
I was leaving for India the same day (Aug-07) and could not pursue or follow-up on Arun's info till now. Hope Arun has managed to contact you in the interregnum.
I am taking a chance and hoping that your son or someone in the family is accessing your mail and keeping you informed of communications addressed to you. Do let us know the latest status, and that you are on the road to full recovery.
I have endorsed this mail also to the rest of our classmates.
Wishing you speedy relief from whatever discomfort you may have been in, and full recovery to a healthy state...
With warm regards,
Maxie

Dear all,
Am happy to inform you that on speaking to Lionel moments ago, he has given understand that everything in regard to his 2 operations went on very well.
There was an option to do the 2 operations separately but using the latest technology it was done on the same day. I believe it was through laser technology like passing through a wire and camera involving no usual incisions.
After 3 days of stay Lionel has been discharged yesterday from the hospital located at Thana. He also told me that tomorrow with his son he will be going to his home at Malad for rest and added that there is nothing to worry in his regard.
He said that he has not opened his Inbox since 10 days but will definitely do so once back home.
As regards Raphael's stay here he has asked his son to do the Hotel booking about which Norman must have briefed Raphael already at the instance of Lionel.
Both of Lionel's email ID's are operative as far as I know and his cell No. is 0-9820332656
With best regards,
Peter

Sure dear Maxie, I will convey best wishes to him from all his classmates once again. In fact, I had already conveyed all of your concerns as regards his health when I had talked to him yesterday.
Lionel said Doctor's advise is for a week's rest for him and he should be up and doing thereafter. He even added that he is planning to meet Raphael at his hotel near the airport in 2 weeks from now.
Warm regards,
Peter

Dear Maxie,
Thanks a lot for supporting me with your prayers & well wishhes for my successful operation which went off very well.
It was found that my appendix had enlarged to almost 10 cm. in length and was about to rupture & the operation was just in nick of time. It was also found to be non malignant.
And now coming to my prostate gland biopsy, thank GOD out of all the 13 samples they had taken all the samples were found to be non malignant.
So my heartfelt thanks to GOD ALMIGHTY & all of you who have been enquiring about my health and praying for me.
Please pass on this message to all our class mates as my computor knowledge is limitd.
HIP HIP HORRAY

Dear Peter and all our Friends,
When I read the recent correspondence that has been coming my way from all of you, I felt happy to know that Lionel was better, but at the same time I felt guilty and depressed to learn that I was the only one who has been missing from the circle during these past few years. I can assure you however that I have been faithfully reading all your letters, and I am looking forward to the time when I can join you all. The reason why I have not written is simply because I have nothing much to contribute, but I am deeply interested in reading all the experiences that you all have had, and I enjoy even more the snaps that you send out. All those snaps are carefully lined up in my computer. When I do come over to India however I shall certainly try to see you all.
Take care, and God bless.
