JJ Hospital Dean, Dr B M Subnis says, "Operations were carried out from 11 in the night to 6 pm the next day and all doctors were working round the clock."
Associate Professor Dept of Surgery, JJ Hospital, Dr Girish Bakshi adds, "As soon as patients came in, there were already two or three paramedics to attend to them."
With the news of Cama hospital being attacked, security became an additonal concern for the doctors working round the clock to save precious lives.
Spokesperson Bombay Hospital, Dr Ashish Kumar Tiwari says, "We heard rumours that terrorists were roaming around in police vans. We also heard that terrorists may put grenades in patients pockets."
Through all this, blood donor response was overwhemling, and some like the Bombay hospital are still providing free treatment. They say, in times of crisis, every little bit helps.
But even as patients slowly recover physically, the mental scars will still take a long time to heal.
