Since the rgular update couldn't update yesterday, I will fill in.

Adi is in Dr. Vikram's clinic with Antara. Vikram(VIK) tells him that they have to do an autisim level test. Vk informs him that Autisim has two levels, high functioning autisim and low functioning autisim. If its low functioning autrisim, the patient takes a long time to learn. If its high functioning autisim, the patient is quick to learn. Vik tells to answer all the question in the form on Antara's behavior. Vik explains that each answer as a mark and on adding up, they will determine the level of autism in Antara. Adi asks the doc if its the same as in cancer...like the first, second and last stage. Doc informs him that autisim is not a disease. In cancer, the more high(advnce) level its toward death, but in autisim the more high level, the more quick ability to learn. The doctor asks Adi few questions(If antara, makes funny faces, if she cries or laugh for no reason, if she is afraid of noise, if she looks into the eyes, if she recognizes her parents) and Adi replies accordingly. In the meantime Antara is drawing. After the paper work, doc tells Adi that he has to take Antara for Mri, Brain scanning and blood test. Adi leaves with Antara and the doctor is amazed to see Antara's drawing...which is a picture of Adi.

Vidya comes home and finds Aditi with Abhi, Aditi informs her about Antara being on the terrace. Aditi says that Antara is mad and her brother doesn't understand this. Vid is worried that if the society tells them to move from the building and Aditi tells her not top worry since Sam has already talked to them and promised that this won't happen again.

Adi takes Antara for all tests . The doctor who does Antara's blood test is amazed on how Antara didn't even flinch when the needle was being inserted in her Afterwards Adi and Antara sit on a bench in a park and Adi offers her chocolate.Antara takes the choc and Adi lovingly kisses her hand. He expresses to her that he wishes that one day she will call him Papa. He gets e otional and puts his head on her lap. Antara pats his head and Adi is surprised.

Vidya is watching Chotu bahu and Abhi questions Vidya if she is angry with Papa and Antara. Just then the door bell rings and she opens the door for Adi. She starts questioning Adi about what Antara did tday and he requests her not today. Adi gives Antara water and takes her and Abhi to the sofa. Abhi sees Antara's hand where the needle was inserted and asks her if its hurting her. He takes Antara to Vid and tells her that Antara is hurt, will she kiss her hand to make the pain go away. Vid doesn't know what to do?

Facts: Eating anything while a women is pregnant, or stress or due to work load doesn't effect the child in the womb with Autisim. For more information log on to www.autism-india.org or www.zeetv.com/shows/aapki-antara or call to (+91) 9871293923 between 1 pm to 8 pm.

Tommorrow: Doc informs Adi that Antara has High functioning Autisim and with regular therapy she will be able to learn quick but the therapy is expensive.
