Resting is the best Remedy

People said laughter is the best medicine. I don't quite agree.
After a week of hectic activities, eventually I was down with fever and flu, just before my presentation.

Last week we went hunting. We made ourselves an instant organizer.After work, Cyn and I went up and down looking frantically for a venue for our event.All sorts of hotels and apartments we went through. Finally on Wednesday, Allah destined us to go to the northern most of Penang - Perkampungan Nelayan Teluk Bahang, near Taman Negara, also known as the end of the world. We found this chalet with reasonable price and needed services.We were thankful and very happy.Alhamdulillah, our hunting came to an end. That time it was already Maghrib, so Cyn dropped me at surau hospital before we headed to the shopping mall to buy equipment for the props, games and gift.I had to take over the driving as Cyn was too hungry to drive. Actually both of us were starving as we only had light lunch earlier.

On Friday, right after work, we traveled again to the shopping mall for our last shopping. We got all the materials, but we did not have enough man power and time! I went home feeling so tired...only the next morning I started doing our props...Got help from Kris in the afternoon when we met at Cyn's house.At 3 pm, the event finally started...one hour delayed from the tentative.

It started with 5 girls, followed by the other 4 who later joined us at the chalet. The chalet was nice with beautiful view by the sea but with no tap water flowing..so they upgraded our rooms into a single family room which nicely accommodate all of us. That night we had good BBQ food - chicken, fish, sausages and nuggets. We went for a walk along the jetty at 10pm..and came back realizing that we still have some left overs..so instead of bloating our stomach or throwing them away, we decided to give to the locals..and they accepted happily.

Looking at the sea...under the full moon made me feel sooo small. Allah created the whole universe perfectly..the smell of the sea is so unique...the floating boats ...the breeze...the wave...Subhanallah...Looking at the environment made you feel closer to Him..
We had a paltalk about what if we were born as a fisherman's daughter, is our life different?

We returned to our room nearly midnight. I wasn't thinking of anything else other than sleep, because the next day was my first call in the new ward.What a waste, I miss my time with them..I would have stayed up overnight if I wasn't oncall the next day...

Woke up early in the morning just to miss the sunrise as I had to sent Sha back to work and I myself wanted to go home before returning to work later in the afternoon. Suddenly it rained so heavily...cars went very slow...

Bad call...once I stepped into the ward, my colleague told me that 2 patients collapsed. I knew it was going to be hard..the MO oncall was the jonah one...One of the patient did not survive...we resuscitated her for one hour.I even sprained my wrist during the CPR.Poor 78 year old lady...died 2 days post bipolar hemiarthroplasty.I only had my LUNCH at 9 pm...and only slept for 2 hours...

Tuesday...here comes fever and flu...I was really unwell that day..need to prepare two presentations..
Wednesday..I presented about wrist block, ankle block and Bier's block during HO teaching, followed by mortality review. I really have got no energy to speak out loud...apologise to my listeners. In the afternoon, I had a sudden throbbing headache which made me lost focus during rounds..I ended up taking paracetamol with tap water...Went back and sleep the whole night like nobody business...

Alhamdulillah...resting is the best remedy...all I need is just some rest..now I am much better, with full energy..and I should now start cleaning my room and counting our expenses for the event...

Thank you Allah

Happy first anniversary to my beautiful red car.. and one year 10 months for my red scooter :)
