Hi all,
Have been busy last few days, and I'm just catching up on the written updates and other threads. First off, Hope, you actually replied to all the posts on the thread, in detail! I applaud your patience, you, Varsha, Tanya, Kool and all the other thread-makers. Liked all the posts, Coming to the actual issue, Varsha seems to be serious, and Bhavna seems to be melting. So may be it will work out by going ahead with the adoption and leaving it there right now, maybe they'll come back to this issue of troubles between adopted child and Varsha and/or Bhavna once all the other current tracks are resolved. I also read something about special children in the orphanage-I dont know why that was mentioned, but I am certain Varsha is not ready to adopt a special child. Her maternal feelings towards a normal child is still questionable, and while all children have needs and demands, special children need to be taken care of every minute atleast until they're somewhat independent. This takes longer for a special child than for a normal child, and I believe Varsha does not understand what will be required of her and what she will need to sacrifice (definitely a career) if she goes for adoption of a special child. If Bhavna agrees for adoption, she may be more open to the idea of a normal child I think. Well, this is all only speculation now--we still don't know why that part was mentioned. Or maybe Varsha will find a new cause to fight for--"justice for and equal treatment of the special kids". That would actually be a good track, we might be able to see the original Varsha if that happens.
Finally, I feel somewhat vindicated reading about Bhavna's actions in the last episode (?). She took far less time to come to terms with her grief and actually visit the same orphans she had badmouthed just a few days back when her grief was still very fresh. I expected her to take longer since in PRland, it doesn't seem very long since Varsha told her the truth. She was written as sometimes stern, but mostly very sensible woman who listens to reason. And while the CVs could have made her character stubborn about wanting a grandchild of her own blood and doing anything for it (she would have had some reason if she did), they kept her original character intact and I'm glad for it.
