Bugging Out

Right after the afternoon round was done, I packed up in double quick time and left the hospital. Got home before 6. Anita was well. The boys were already settled in, with Irfan actually fallen asleep right after reaching home from school. He was still asleep when I arrived.

After shower, I went to my Mum's place to check on her. She was doing very well as well. Her appetite was back, and u just couldn't resist my Aunt's cooking. I stayed on for dinner.

It was just after Maghrib now, and after the meal, I was really sleepy. Better get back home then......

Post Call

With four admissions in the early hours, the call I did last night was much busier than I anticipated. I thought with the school holidays and all, the crowd would be less. I was actually looking forward for a bit of rest. Well, I guessed wrong.

So, after a dozen admission, and more work today sorting them out, I hope things would turn out OK. Anita had been doing well at home. The boys been behaving hopefully. Would be checking on my Mum later tonight after I reach home of course.

As for now, was just waiting for the clinic to finish before having a bit of a lunch. Would start my afternoon rounds a bit earlier today. Hopefully I could push off early later on. There was also the small.matter of cancelling this Friday clinic......

Back to Business

Subang ward round. Then ParkCity, a bit of groceries since I would be on call today. Lunch. Then dropping the groceries at the apartment. Afternoon clinic next at Subang before the admission started coming. And yes, plenty came.

After a quick dinner, I just hang around at the lounge waiting for Maghrib and more admission. Hopefully they came before midnight as I could do with a bit of rest tonight.

Happy On Call.

End of the Week

It had been a long one. And Alhamdulillah it had a happy ending thus far. Both my Mum and Anita were now back home and I spent the whole afternoon at the apartment sorting out the work left undone from earlier in the week.

So, I was catching up on the food department. While I was camping at the hotel, I only had mamak food. Now that both were already home and my Aunt from Sungai Petani was in town, I couldn't resist her cooking. So, today it was both lunch and dinner at my Mum's place today. Come to think of it I also had breakfast here on the way to ward round this morning actually. The full monty.

So, better enjoy the food while I can since I would be on call tomorrow.

Looking at my schedule, I would probably can my clinic next Friday as both my Mum and Anita would be having their follow-up. It would also give me some down time to recover from this week. I could do with a rest actually.....

Anita Discharged

Anita was feeling a lot better and this morning, she managed to convince the Surgeon enough to let her be discharged. There was no stopping the word home was mentioned. She then duly called home to make sure that the boys - who were supposed to come during lunch today - to wait for her at home instead. No turning back now!

Her drain was soon removed, and now she was walking around the room excitedly. The bills were being organised now, and I would soon be picking up the medications prior to discharge. But not before she had some lunch. She was starving since the morning. And that was a good sign as it showed that her appetite was back.

I will be driving her home with the maid today as we have already told the driver to wait up at home.
