Amma hadn't laughed in months. The fever had stolen her voice, her strength, everything. In her small Chennai home, surrounded by Kannadasan's poems on yellowed pages, she lay still as stone.

They sang old film songs, shared recipes passed through generations, reminded her why she fought to stay. Slowly, color returned to her cheeks. Her granddaughter watched in hysterics as Amma danced again, twirling through the kitchen, reciting verses from memory. She had healed not through medicine alone, but through the warmth of those who remembered her.
