for the whole day today, my heart was like a roller coaster. my mum was admitted for operation this afternoon...
As told by the doctor earlier, the success rate is not very high. as this operation is done on the neck, which have many other implication. so me and my bro were actually keeping out fingers crossed, my mum insisted on the operation, for she will be bed ridden for life, had she not opt for the operation.
As the doctor is scheduled to perform a couple of operations today, thus the exact timing of my mum's slot is unknown, however the doctor promised to call us, AFTER the operation.... we were like ... HAR? high risk operation, and will call us only after the operation? what if, touch wood, something happen during the operation? that will mean that we will not able to see her for the last time....
when she finally emerged from the operating theatre at around 6.30pm just now, we could only catch a glimpse of her on the other side of the glass wall... she looks weak, however the nurse, gave me a smile, which i took it as a sign of successful operation.
she was immediately pushed into the Intensive Care Unit. where she will be staying for the next few days, before transfering to the therapy ward.
the doctor spoke to me for a while, telling me about the operation success, and also warning me that the next 2 days is very critical for her. swellings are expected, and that we are to be extra careful when in contact with her, as gems are very likely to cause her wound infection. i was also told that my mum lost quite an great amount of blood during the operation. however i was assured that there will be blood for transfusion immediately if required.
i was also told by another (very cute) male doctor that they will be taking x ray to see if everything is okie internally, and if the metal plate is fitted correctly, and also that my mum will have to wait for 2 days, before they can proceed with any other forms of check on her. as her body is very weak now.
when i saw my mum lying on the bed, suddenly struck me... life really is unpredictable.. last thursday morning, she was still "healthy" and were travelling her and there to do the groceries, cooking.... then evening time suddenly become paralyze, post nap at my aunt's house.... things really just happen within a snap of a finger..
life is short, live it to the fullest.. Live your life without regrets.. don't be someone who they forget.
