Hi Santanoo:
My sister also just told me about the sad demise of Ritam on April 19. My heartfelt condolences to his parents and all of you in the family. They also told me how brave he and both his parents were. My thoguhts and prayers also are with you all.
Due to my own family affairs back home I could not go and see Ritam although I visited Assam frequently in the last few months/year. I will always have an 'aakkhep' for it in my mind.
Good to hear from you.
- Alpana Baideu.

>My visit was due to to demise of my cousin. If you all remember a young kid called Ritam Deka who created quite a stir by scoring 85 % mark with 6 letter marks in HSLC depsite being suffering from Duchene Muscular Dystrpohy in 2003. He ultimately succumbed to this incurable disease at young age of 19 years. It was a sad day for all fo us. He showed incredible courage to fight this disease and lead a normal life as much possible till his death.
