Chapter 1, A TRIUMPH OF SURGERY

 ~Summary~

 –by James Herriot

James Enquires about tricki

It was when James was driving that, he saw Mrs Pumphrey and tricki walking down the street. He stopped his car to see how Trick was doing. He was shocked to see that he had become fat like a sausage and was lacking energy. After enquiring from Mrs Pumphrey about Trick’s condition, he advised her to immediately stop giving the dog extra snacks between meals. He also wanted her to make him exercise daily along with a strict diet in order to improve his health. Mrs Pumphrey confessed that it was very difficult for her to do so but she agreed upon giving it a try and walked off with tricki.

जब जेम्स गाड़ी चला रहा था, उसने श्रीमती पम्फ्रे और ट्रिकी को सड़क पर चलते हुए देखा। उसने यह देखने के लिए अपनी कार रोक दी कि ट्रिक कैसी चल रही है। वह यह देखकर चौंक गया कि वह सॉसेज की तरह मोटा हो गया था और उसमें ऊर्जा की कमी थी। श्रीमती पम्फ्रे से ट्रिक की स्थिति के बारे में पूछताछ करने के बाद, उन्होंने उसे भोजन के बीच कुत्ते को अतिरिक्त नाश्ता देना तुरंत बंद करने की सलाह दी। वह यह भी चाहता था कि वह उसके स्वास्थ्य को बेहतर बनाने के लिए सख्त आहार के साथ-साथ उसे रोजाना व्यायाम करवाए। श्रीमती पम्फ्रे ने स्वीकार किया कि ऐसा करना उनके लिए बहुत कठिन था लेकिन वह इसे आजमाने के लिए तैयार हो गईं और ट्रिकी लेकर चली गईं।

Herriot Received an Expected Call

Mrs Pumphrey called James Herriot, the vet, hurriedly, as tricki had refused to eat food. Her concern grew even more when he had bouts of vomiting. James drove to Mrs Pumphrey’s house with a firm mindset that the only way to cure Tricki was to get him out of the house for some time. He suggested to Mrs Pumphrey to hospitalise him for a fortnight for observation so that the proper treatment can follow. Although it broke Mrs Pumphrey’s heart, she allowed James to take Tricki along with him to his surgery. He carried the dog wrapped in a blanket to his car. All the house helpers started to get together the blankets, rugs, bowls, coats etc that they thought Tricki might need during his hospitalisation. James started to drive off as he knew that his car could not carry so many things. All that Mrs Pumphrey managed to put were a few of his coats. Tricki left for the hospital leaving his caretakers behind in tears.

श्रीमती पम्फ्रे ने पशु चिकित्सक जेम्स हेरियट को जल्दबाजी में बुलाया, क्योंकि ट्रिकी ने खाना खाने से मना कर दिया था। उसकी चिंता तब और बढ़ गई जब उसे उल्टियां होने लगीं। जेम्स इस दृढ़ मानसिकता के साथ श्रीमती पम्फ्रे के घर चला गया कि ट्रिकी को ठीक करने का एकमात्र तरीका उसे कुछ समय के लिए घर से बाहर कर देना है। उन्होंने श्रीमती पम्फ्रे को एक पखवाड़े के लिए अवलोकन के लिए अस्पताल में भर्ती करने का सुझाव दिया ताकि उचित उपचार हो सके। हालांकि इससे श्रीमती पम्फ्रे का दिल टूट गया, लेकिन उन्होंने जेम्स को ट्रिकी को अपनी सर्जरी के लिए अपने साथ ले जाने की अनुमति दी। उसने कुत्ते को कंबल में लपेटकर अपनी कार तक पहुंचाया। सभी घरेलू सहायिकाओं ने कंबल, गलीचे, कटोरे, कोट आदि इकट्ठा करना शुरू कर दिया, जो उन्हें लगा कि ट्रिकी को अस्पताल में भर्ती होने के दौरान इसकी आवश्यकता हो सकती है। जेम्स ने ड्राइव करना शुरू कर दिया क्योंकि वह जानता था कि उसकी कार इतनी सारी चीज़ें नहीं ले सकती। श्रीमती पम्फ्रे ने जो कुछ भी रखा था, वह उनके कुछ कोट थे। अपने केयरटेकर को रोते हुए छोड़कर ट्रिकी अस्पताल के लिए निकल गया।

Tricki’s Stay and Recovery at the Hospital

Tricki laid motionless on the bed that the vet made for him on the first day. He was put on a water diet for almost two days. Even the household dogs didn’t bother him as he seemed uninterested in anything. After two days, he started responding a bit. On the following day, he whimpered (cried in low and weak sound), trotted (walked briskly) and joined the hound (hunting dog) in the garden. Later on the third day, he ran with enthusiasm when the food was served. He also gulped (swallowed) down the extra food that was put out for him. His recovery was speeding up. He had started running all day long and found joy in being bowled over and squashed. Inspite of being a high maintenance dog, he had fitted in well with the gang of shabby and unkempt ones.

ट्रिकी पशु चिकित्सक द्वारा पहले दिन उसके लिए बनाए गए बिस्तर पर बिना हिले-डुले लेटा रहा। उन्हें करीब दो दिनों तक वॉटर डाइट पर रखा गया था। यहाँ तक कि घर के कुत्ते भी उसे परेशान नहीं करते थे क्योंकि वह किसी भी चीज़ में दिलचस्पी नहीं रखता था। दो दिनों के बाद, उसने थोड़ा सा जवाब देना शुरू कर दिया। अगले दिन, वह फुसफुसाया (धीमी और कमजोर आवाज में रोया), थर्राया (तेजी से चला) और बगीचे में शिकारी कुत्ते (शिकार कुत्ते) में शामिल हो गया। बाद में तीसरे दिन जब भोजन परोसा गया तो वह उत्साह से दौड़ा। उसने अपने लिए बाहर रखे अतिरिक्त भोजन को भी निगल लिया। उनकी रिकवरी तेजी से हो रही थी। उसने दिन भर दौड़ना शुरू कर दिया था और गेंदबाजी और स्क्वैश होने में आनंद पाता था। एक उच्च रखरखाव कुत्ता होने के बावजूद, वह जर्जर और अस्त-व्यस्त लोगों के गिरोह के साथ कुएं में फिट हो गया था।

Mrs Pumphrey’s Concern

Mrs Pumphrey used to phone the vet’s clinic several times a day. She was keen to record his recovery and maintenance at short intervals. James brushed away her questions about Tricki’s dressing, according to the weather but he didn’t fail to assure her that Tricki was out of danger. Upon learning about Tricki’s improving health, Mrs Pumphrey started sending additional food items, wine and brandy for Tricki, although this was not required. So the vet and his partner consumed these additional items themselves.

श्रीमती पम्फ्रे दिन में कई बार पशु चिकित्सक के क्लीनिक पर फोन करती थीं। वह थोड़े-थोड़े अंतराल पर उसकी वसूली और रखरखाव को रिकॉर्ड करने की इच्छुक थी। जेम्स ने मौसम के अनुसार, ट्रिकी के पहनावे के बारे में उसके सवालों को टाल दिया, लेकिन वह उसे आश्वस्त करने से नहीं चूका कि ट्रिकी खतरे से बाहर है। ट्रिकी के स्वास्थ्य में सुधार के बारे में जानने पर श्रीमती पम्फ्रे ने अतिरिक्त खाद्य पदार्थ, शराब और ब्रांडी को ट्रिकी के लिए भेजना शुरू किया, हालांकि इसकी आवश्यकता नहीं थी। इसलिए पशु चिकित्सक और उसके साथी ने इन अतिरिक्त वस्तुओं का स्वयं सेवन किया।

Tricki’s Better Condition

After two weeks James called up Mrs Pumphrey to inform that Tricki was fit and could go home. Mrs Pumphrey reached the surgery within half an hour. While the chauffeur (driver) held the door open, she enquired about Tricki’s actual condition. She was concerned about his well being and wanted to be sure about it. James found Tricki playing with the pack. He had become healthy and strong in his two weeks stay. As James carried Tricki out to his mistress, he jumped off his arms and landed in his mistress lap. She was very happy at finding Tricki as excited as he used to be. He licked her face and wagged (swung) his tail. The chauffeur and the vet settled the dog’s stuff in the car while Mrs Pumphrey thanked the vet for the ‘triumph of surgery’.

दो सप्ताह के बाद जेम्स ने श्रीमती पम्फ्रे को फोन करके सूचित किया कि ट्रिकी फिट है और घर जा सकता है। श्रीमती पम्फ्रे आधे घंटे के भीतर सर्जरी के लिए पहुंचीं। जब चालक (चालक) ने दरवाजा खुला रखा, उसने ट्रिकी की वास्तविक स्थिति के बारे में पूछताछ की। वह उसकी भलाई के बारे में चिंतित थी और इसके बारे में सुनिश्चित होना चाहती थी। जेम्स ने ट्रिकी को पैक के साथ खेलते हुए पाया। अपने दो सप्ताह के प्रवास में वे स्वस्थ और बलवान हो गए थे। जैसे ही जेम्स ट्रिकी को अपनी मालकिन के पास ले गया, उसने अपनी बाँहों से छलांग लगा दी और अपनी मालकिन की गोद में आ गया। वह ट्रिकी को पहले की तरह उत्साहित पाकर बहुत खुश थी। उसने उसके चेहरे को चाटा और अपनी पूँछ हिलाई। ड्राइवर और पशु चिकित्सक ने कुत्ते के सामान को कार में बिठा दिया, जबकि श्रीमती पम्फ्रे ने ‘सर्जरी की जीत’ के लिए पशु चिकित्सक को धन्यवाद दिया।
