FEATURED STORY: CROSSED TRACKS

The old man in the ac two-tier compartment, staring at the passing landscape, seemed uneasy about something, turned to his son sitting beside him and asked, "What is this?"

The son whispered, "It is a diaper."

The old man was hard on hearing, "What?" he asked again. He seemed irritated.

The son looked embarrassed. In a louder voice, he said, "Diaper."

The little boy sitting in the opposite seat was surprised, "He is wearing a diaper?"

His mother shushed him.

"Amma, only babies wear diapers, no? Why is he wearing it?"

His mother shushed him again, this time a bit more severely. The boy went quiet but continued staring at the old man.

The mother asked the old man's son, "Dementia or Alzheimer?"

"Dementia"
