Eventful

Too many things happened lately...to me and to the people around me. Last weekend was the second weekend I spent here in mainland. I didnt go home, just because I needed to study for NRP. Mondy and Tuesday were the first time I went to HSJ on my own. Parking was not bad though, as long as you reach before 8am, you'll find one.

NRP in HSJ was tiring. Spent most of the times standing up, at the megacode station. It was also tough to satisfy our instructor's standard. I was in the same group with two housemen and two nurses. Great to know kak Norsuzana, an experienced and dedicated nurse, and Husna, a young innocent nurse. At the end of day two, I went back home, this time, I happily used ferry.

Those were the tiring days...slept soundly at night, woke up with body aches in the morning. 

Thursday...oncall again. Countless calls...luckily the uneventful one. My JM was admitted for labour, we waited with anticipation but eventually she had to deliver in HSJ, assisted with vacuum. Friday was our ward Raya celebration. Plenty of food...nasi tomato, ayam masak merah, dalca, nasi impit, lemang, rendang, soto, lime juice...specialist sponsored chocolate chip walnut..alhamdulillah. I went back home right after filling up my tummy :) yet the sad part is one of our ward sister was absent...her father was involved in MVA and critically ill in ICU.

Saturday...I brought my parents to Selama Kedah, to visit my 61 year old cousin who suffers from stage 4 lung carcinoma. Thanks to Waze, we got there easily. This cousin of mine was a heavy smoker, that might be his causative agent. Allahuakbar, once I saw him I was surprise...he became so thin that I hardly recognized him. He loss his appetite and unable to pass motion for 20 days. The family showed me his CXR, MRI and CECT results. I was speechless when I saw the word stage 4. Metastases to vertebrae. Refused radiotherapy. Request AOR discharge. Prognosis is very poor. Only Allah knows. Whatever will happen, at least, I already brought ayah to see his nephew, who once very close to him. May Allah ease his life.

Sunday...oncall again. Four admissions in 24 hours, good achievement. My CP patient got admitted again, the third time in one month on my oncall day.

Monday morning...the devastating news came..the father to our ward sister passed away at 3 am. Innalillahiwainna ilaihirajiun. We went to visit in three cars and four motorbikes but the funeral has just over. So heart broken to see our sster, who was a happy person to cry in our hugs :( 

When we returned to the hospital, we noticed that our JM's baby was admitted for jaundice. So it made our life easy, not having to go to her house anymore but just to visit mother and baby in our own ward.

Tonight I must study!
