Amitabh Bachchan thought about his mom Teji Bachchan on Wednesday, which was the first anniversary of her death. In contrast to his late-night posts, the actor wrote on his blog in the morning about her last moments in the hospital as doctors tried to bring her back to life. He said that he was the one who told them to stop “pumping her delicate frame” to try to save her and let her go.
Amitabh wrote, “She slipped away as elegantly and quietly as was her temperament this morning as I watched the doctors struggle to revive her delicate heart, time and again .. pumping here delicate frame in vigorous pushes to get her to live again .. and again .. and again. We stood .. holding hands all of us near and dear .. the nieces and the children in tears .. until ..I spoke up .. leave it doc .. leave her .. she wishes to go .. stop .. do not make any more efforts .. each effort was painful for her system and painful for us to stand there and witness .. each time that ‘straight line’ would appear .. and then shift to the graphic responses of the physical pumping.”
He added, “Stop it I said .. and they did .. the singular tone of the straight line on the monitor .. indicating to us all and the World , that she had left .. slipped out .. as someone recently mentioned about the passing of a near one .. and gone to a ‘better place’ – words that we often hear being used in consolation of the departure. A gentle hand on her forehead .. a million memories flashing by in the silence of the room in the hospital .. and then leaving to being her home.”
