Dr. Pausch, because of his age, was able to put into words the message Nirali sent to all of us in her time on this earth: "enjoy your life". I thank Nirali for her message and thank you and Jignesh for sharing her message with us.

I have been thinking about you guys alot lately. I tried to email you after you called me on Josh's b-day (thank you so much for that) but my email was sent back. I must have had the wrong email address for you. Please do not think that I didn't appreciate you calling because it meant so much to me that you would take time to think of me after you guys just had went through a few rough days yourself. I was actually at Josh's burial site spending time there before I had to go to work. Please email me back so that I will have the correct email address for you. I am still praying for you both. God bless you! Love, Missy

I am sitting in my office with tears in my eyes and unable to control my emotions, not just because of what she went through but also at her always smiling face DESPITE all she went through. And I feel lousy for not having the courage or the decency to run to a bone marrow drive immediately and get typed. I am so sorry for not doing my part. I am a registered donor now.

I went to a groccery store here where they were selling the "daandiyas" and immediately thought of Nirali and how cute she looked in her dancing pictures. Can it be really true that she will never be dancing again ??? I would like to imagine that wherever she is, she is dancing in glee.
I had made it a tradition to donate blood on my birthday -- but this year I could not, because of some serious health issues. Nowadays whenever I think of death and feel scared I try to imagine that maybe I will actaully meet Nirali, Joshua, Aditya, Piyush, Subash and the rest. I just ask the same question as Eric Clapton's song " Would you know my name if I saw you in heaven, would you hold my hand if I saw you in heaven ...?"" Sorry for babbling for so long ... I miss you Nirali, I really do.
Rucha and Jignesh, crying with you.

Posted on ''October 12, 2007, at 01:01 PM by Anonymous Email: Phone:Although, I have very small veins and get poked several times for a single donation, I've always made it a point to donate blood every 50-60 days because that is the waiting period between blood donations. I knew that there would be someone who might need it despartely but knowing that it actually helps 6-7 children, that suddenly gives my donation a whole different meaning. I've been donating blood since I was 18 and found out that I had a rare blood group. Ever since Nirali came into our lives, I've tried to give at every donation camp that comes to our workplace. I hope to save someone's life and that will make it all worth while
Posted on ''October 11, 2007, at 11:58 PM by Anonymous Email:None Phone:noneThe temple that I placed the flyer of your daughter reminds people that it can be anyone your child, parents, friend, teacher, or anyone that can be in a position where they are sick and fighting for their lives. Nirali reminds people to give to others and support people or any good cause. Many desi people shun away or have stereotypes about blood, bone, or organ donation. I am trying to educate people that saving life is a beautiful gift to another person. I placed booklets about bone marrow and papers about blood donation at the temples. I tried hard and still do to educate people and telling people to reach out. Nirali represents what's important in life and beyond. By doing good services and all it's giving service to God. I try to encourage people to be proactive in life. Everyone is busy and have jobs, school, etc but that shouldn't be an excuse to making a better world. I think all people are responsible of making a better world. I am trying to ask people to reflect on their lives and what's important. I still post up blood and donation posters. I try to encourage people to do the right thing.
Though I do not know you both or Nirali but my heart, prayers, and good wishes are with you all. Take Good Care Nirali's parents. Don't worry your daughter is safe and is with is in our daily lives.

I used to pray silently for her recovery and did pray for her at Mata Vaishnao devi Temple when I visited there in Dec'06.
Having left L&T in End Nov'06 (I dont know why), I sort of lost touch with this website in Dec'06.
I dont know what prompted me to reach the site for an update on Nirali today. I was hoping to see good news of her recovery...but perhaps God wished something else. Am personally grieved. Am sure God has given lots of courage & strength to all of us, and more so to the parents of Nirali, to overcome the grief and pray to the almighty that may her soul rest in peace.

You most likely don't know me. I came to know this unbelievable news just two days ago. I sure could have become the donor badly needed by her.
I was not lucky to see your Angel, but the wonderful pictures on www.savenirali.com are enough. Look at the ears our almighty father had given her, she was just flying by the garden of your family.
I fully understand and feel the pain you had already undergone while haplessly watching the beloved angel flying away from your family. Nirali must be talking to you in your dreams, kindly consider those talks real, as I had and am going through a similar condition, it is just matter of time for me.
It have no strength to suggest any of you not to cry, but just remember Nirali can not remain smiling wherever she is, looking at you in this condition. She probably wants some commitment from you.
Your family will remain in my prayers. In any case this message disturb any of you further, just disregard it completely.

Posted on ''June 18, 2007, at 06:21 PM by Abitha Email: Phone:My heart goes out to Subash's family. To lose a child is the hardest thing any parent can ever go through. I dont know why babies and kids get affected by this horrible disease. Subash's one big problem was time too - they were waiting to collect funds. This makes it all the more important to have a bone marrow registry and ability for Indians to be able to get treated in India.

May Nirali's soul rest in peace.
Posted on ''June 05, 2007, at 03:00 PM by Email: Phone:Rucha,
Your efforts have made me very committed to do all I that I can to help. This was not my first brush with lukaemia, I first got on the resgitry when I read about a 7 year old called Rajan Vyas last year (I found out after Nirali's passing away that he was also taken away). And I knew one 22 year old angelic child who lost her battle. I got on the registry, spread the word, shed a few tears and kept the family in my prayers but Nirali's passing away has been like a very personal loss and its because of the daily updates. You made us a part of the extended Nirali family and I thank you for that! Here is a poem I found on the website of a person Megan Jacob who lost her battle with hodgkins disease. The poem provides solace to me so I thought I would share it with you:
God saw you getting tired, and a cure was not to be.
So He put His arms around you and whispered, "Come with Me."
With tearful eyes we watched you slowly fade away.
Although we loved you dearly, we would not make you stay.
A golden heart stopped beating,your hard-working hands put to rest,
God broke our hearts to prove to us He only takes the best

Posted on ''June 01, 2007, at 01:58 PM by Email: Phone:If you are willing to get on the registry and there is no drive in your area and you dont have the time to organize one, you can order a home test kit and get the test kit mailed to you at your home so that you can get on the registry. Please check the AADP.org site for detail (Asian American donor program)
Posted on ''June 01, 2007, at 01:55 PM by Email: Phone:I would urge anybody who wants to register to please go one step further and organize a drive. Please consider organizing a drive at your place of work, your local temple or your local Gurdwara or at your next netip meeting. Blood drives are already common at work places let us all make marrow drives common too. They are very easy to organize. You get in touch with the local chapter of AADP (there is a 1-800 number at the website), tell them you want to organize a drive and they guide you through the process. Most companies allow some time off for such volunteer activities. A lot of companies view it as initiative on your part and it can help your career as well.
Also please let all your pregnant friends know the humanitarian benefits of donating cord blood.
I have come across a few misconceptions so make sure you clear them while promoting the event and let everybody know that 1. There is no monetary cost for Asians 2. The drive doesnot involve actual donation as yet, just getting on a resgistry to become a potential donor. If you are ever found to be a match donation would be voluntary.

Have come here countless times after April 27th also. Each time there is that same flutter & hope in the the heart that used to be prior to this sad day, that i will get to read something positive about the lil angel. If I have still not managed to absosrb it, then i cannot even begin to think about you guys. All I can say is that take care, be strong, be good. They say that there is some goddness in whatever God does, though at times it is nearly impossible to grasp it in that moment. Your lil angel was loved specially by Him, perhaps that is why she is so near to Him now. Hold on guys. There will be a tomorrow that you so deserve.
