This patient has been with us for about 2 weeks already.Every time I meet him ,he will shade tears. If he is an actor, can earn good money le !.Actually , he is from Bintangor.He can relate many old stories from Bintangor. When he talk, he also cry, that is the most beautiful part of the story!Then I have to calm him down.The first day I see him, he is coming for angiogram.His findings in the angiogram is that he needs a by pass surgery.He told me, will he be AMEN if he go for the surgery.......meaning that will he die during operation.Then he start to cry That is the first time I see him cry.His son is vascular surgeon in England.Then I stay to council the old man(79 years old) After operation , he is OK and was discharged yesterday(23092009)May God bless him?
where are you?
our little sister was talking to me while lying down side by side to me last night. I related my old patient to her. She starts to shade tears. She related her story when she was asked to get adminted to hospital when her blood test shows meliodosis in 2005.That was when I just transferred to Kuching.I was in SGH on 15082005 .She told me she keep crying while in Sarikei Hospital.She felt scared and helpless without mummy around.Luckily ,Nong was with her in the hospital.I was neither easy that time. I was new to SGH.I was also helpless like the little girl that time. We were shading tears together during that time.
I arranged her to get down to SGH for treatment. Praised Lord that she is very OK now.
Nong, DD missed you a lot. Without you, she will cry more that time. Thank you Nong for helping her while mum was not around.
