my mum
Thursday, February 19, 2009

i always think my mum as a great woman.
not only did she take care of her 3 grown up children who still behaves like kids + my dad who still ... cannot make it at times.
ha!
my mum is a brave woman too.
she has went through 2 major knee operations, today she went through another one.
it's her right hand.
the operation was called 'trigger finger release'.
my mum can't move her fingers on her right hand, neither could she clutch her fist.
she's been enduring the pain for these past few months.
though it's not a big operation as previously but i have to acknowledge and compliment on her courage.
yesterday, she was notified of her operation for today.
despite such short notice, my mum still want to proceed.
i've been with my mum at SGH since 8.40am this morning.
we just came back at around 9pm.
alot of waiting and waiting today.
we waited till 4.10pm then my mum was pushed into the operating theatre.
she was pushed out around 6.40pm.
then we waited for the doctor to review and take prescription of medication.
my mum was impatient as she can't wait to get out of the place.
she went to harass the ward nurses.
to the extend that she stood at the counter to 'pressurize' them.
though the hospital foodcourt doesn't served great tasty food but my mum couldn't care much coz she was rrreeeaaalllyy hungry.
after all were done, we left the hospital at 8pm plus.
we took a cab home coz my mum was too tired and the painkiller has worn off.
my mum said the pain isn't very great.
at least compared to the 2 knee ops, it's still endurable.
so, ... these 3 weeks i got to do my own laundry (plus my sis) and help out in housework.
