Blood group

On the way to work, I stopped by the pathology lab in the neighborhood to get my blood group determined. Aai is getting my name registered (naav nondavaNe) in some marriage bureau, and one of the items of information required to be submitted is the blood group. I had no clue about my blood group until 2001, when I had to donate blood during Baba's operation at Lilavati. At that time, after 23 years of existence, I had come to know my blood group and I had vowed never to forget what it was. Unfortunately, now I have absolutely no recollection. I hunted for any documents in my old files that might contain some record, but came up with a blank. Aai had been urging me to go to the lab all this week, and finally I went today. The report will be out by 6 PM today.
