My mother aged 89 years stopped eating, drinking speaking in the last week of January. I had her examined in a private hospital and it was found by ecg, CPK MB and troponin test that she had suffered a heart attack and also had pneumonia. Eco cardiography revealed that she had left ventricle efficiency 30 %. She was admitted to ICU and treated with anticoagulants, antibiotics and IV fluids and also given oxygen. Later her blood pressure dropped and she was given nor adrenaline by IV route. A few hours before her death her heart rate was 130 beats per min and breathing was 30 times per minute. I pointed out this to the doctor on duty but he did not do anything. A few hours later she died of cardio respiratory arrest. I feel she could have survived had she been given anti arrhythmic drugs or by using a pacemaker. I feel even five months after her death that she died due to lack of proper treatment and feel depressed when I remember her final moments. Could she have lived if treated in a better hospital?

Ans: I fully understand your feeling. It is hard to let go of our loved ones. What you did was right at that moment. With Nor Adrenaline the possibilities of heart rate fluctuation happens. With that fluctuation, one does not treat the readings and change the treatment. More than heart rate it is the circulation reflected through BP needs to be taken care.
Above all her ejection fraction was low to cope this fluctuation. Not to blame the system, soul departing cannot be stopped by any one. Given this circumstances I feel the best has been done

I am working for more than 12 years and does not have a clarity on my experience. I have been into multiple LOB due to financial concerns and there was no one to provide guidance about the career path and career growth. I have been rejected by employers due to age factor and want to pursue a career in AML/KYC/Compliance. People often talk about the difficulty in clearing certification courses which makes me feel deflated and feel like I cannot proceed ahead. Please guide how I can avoid all and have a fruitful career
Ans: Dear Sir/ Madam,

Please look into the following aspects

Clarify Your Goals- take some time to understand what is your interest. Identify your strengths, interests and now consider them aligning it with AML/ KYS / Compliance or any other. Have focus. It's good to hear other's opinions at the end you have to deep dive and see what you want to do.

Look for a mentor or guidance in the area of your interest. For example if you are keen to pursue AML/ KYC and Compliance then look for someone from the same industry who can guide you better and what steps you need to take to prepare yourself to get the success and clear the exams.

Secondly age is something we can not anything about instead focus on the skills you bring on the table.

Increase your networking and connections this should help you land where to aim to.

Mostly important be positive and focussed. People are going to speak out their opinions the only thing you can do is make a choice and stick to that.

Hope this helps

Thanks and Regards

Hi, I am a mechanical engineer and having been working in the field of power plant from last 12 years. I don't enjoy my work now and feel that I am not meant for this job as I see no growth in my career. I'm 36 now and can't think of anything new as I don't think I can't enter into a new field at this age. No one will prefer me. What should I do?
Ans: Feeling stuck in your current career path is a common experience, but it's important to remember that it's never too late to make a change. Take some time to reflect on your skills, interests, values, and strengths. Consider what aspects of your current job you enjoy and what you would like to do differently in your next career move. Research other career paths and industries that align with your interests and transferable skills. Look for opportunities where your mechanical engineering background and experience in power plants could be valuable, such as in renewable energy, sustainability, project management, or technical sales. Identify any gaps in your skills or knowledge that may be necessary for transitioning to a new field. Consider taking courses, certifications, or workshops to acquire new skills or enhance existing ones. Many online platforms offer flexible learning options that you can pursue while still working. Reach out to your professional network, including colleagues, mentors, former classmates, and industry contacts. Inform them of your career interests and ask for advice, informational interviews, or referrals to potential employers or opportunities in your desired field. Evaluate whether pursuing additional education, such as a master's degree or specialized certification, would be beneficial for your career transition. Some programs offer opportunities for mid-career professionals to gain new skills and credentials. Look for volunteer or internship opportunities in your target industry or field. This can be a valuable way to gain hands-on experience, expand your network, and test out whether a new career path is the right fit for you before making a full transition.
