First we visited the endocrinologist and he told us the latest findings that he had found. Firstly, he told us that the phosphate level in my uncle's body had returned to the norm(something that we are very happy about) and also this means that some of the symptoms are going off slowly. Then he reviewed to us the MRI scan findings, and they found a tumor in the nasal cavity!!!
tension built up within me as i bited my teeth tightly to see what he says next.
phew.... he didn't say what characteristic the tumour is. to me is a gd news coz i can't take too many shocking news in a day you know. anyway we were further referred on to a ENT(EAR, NOSE, and THROAT) surgeon. We did a biospy of the tumour to test for the characteristic of it. and then after that we will proceed to the surgery and after the surgery things should hopefully be back to normal again. Anyway i'm happy with the registrar, he was a nice guy, he read alot, practise evidence-based practice. What make me really impressed with him was that, he sent us off for lunch while he prepares for a memo to refer us on to the next ENT surgeon. He takes his time and prepares the memo carefully ok.. i mean how many doctors or specialist will do that? So i'm really happy with him. Then when i tot we'll be scheduled to see the ENT surgeon only sometime later, but my uncle called me to say we had to stay longer coz he's gng to see the ENT surgeon in the afternoon. wow wasn't the service like EXPRESS.. you'll never expect this kind of express service given to you, especially if you are under government subsidy man.But anyway i'm happy with the arrangement, so we immediately went to see the ENT surgeon and did a biopsy. This is when the painful part of the day hit me. When i saw the tube inserting into my uncle's nasal, that moment the blood just gush out of the nostrils.. i know it was painful. the look on my maid's face was totally disgusted.. and she had to leave the room coz she couldn't stand another second seeing it. So being supportive as i can, i stayed by my uncle's side and suffer the pain with him. Coz the blood continued to bleed, we had to wait for another 45 mins to make sure that the blood clots and that he's safe to return home, if not he'll have to stay in for a few day's of observation. and my poor uncle and to pinch his nose tight to stop the wound from bleeding. Anyway while waiting, my poor uncle sneezed a few time, and blood starts to flow out of the nostrils again like a river flowing downstream.. i saw that painful look and unbearable disappointment and tiredness on his face, i got the urge to go forward and give him a hug. wad stopped me was the blood.. so i pat him on the shoulder, assuring him that he'll be fine and i told him i'll try my best to help him whenever possible. I hope i can take off some of his sufferings, i hope i can share that pain with him. Later when the ENT surgeon was exaiming the wound thru the endoscope, i was there beside my uncle, you know the pain of squeezing a small tube thru your nostril, you just feel nausea and uncomfortable. I saw his temporalis contracting as he tried to bear on with the pain, and i saw his masticatory muscles contract, i contracted my masticatory muscles as well.. i felt the pain going thru my nose too..
It was a relieve when the doctor told me that he is able to go home and rest.Thank god for answering my prayer.But if anything in the night that the nose starts to bleed thru the clot, i had to send him back to A n E immediately. So pple, pls pray for us.
My aunty was really worried when i picked up her call just now.She just left this morning to malaysia for a christian convention, although i could see that she didn't really leave with a peace of mind, but i know she just wanted to please my uncle coz he insisted that she goes for the trip. Anyway i might be young and small in her eyes, but i think i can do a great job taking care of my uncle.so pls don't worry, just pray for us.
Finally it was time to hit back home. On the road when i was driving, there were a lot of barger... as if the road own by them.
First i was trying to land change, and i and shined my signal light ok. this stupid red car just refuse to let me thru. and horn at me. and he horn at me again when he had already stopped his car for me to go. and when i moved, he moved as well.. WTF.... then i saw another barger trying to bully a small car and then so surprisingly, when they seperated quite far away, i was following behind that small car and he stretched his hand out of the window and pointed that obsence finger at that barger.. i was wow!! but at that time i shocked my head too.. so disappointed with singaporeans.. is this wad you call world class!!.. haiz.
Anyway i was shopping in SGH while waiting for my uncle, i discovered a medibook store in SGH and there were student rate. So i got myself an neurology and nervous system book. Coz i am totally lost in param's class, especially when i miss 2 hours of lect and 1 hour of pract today..
i think i better stop typing and start hitting the books again.But before that, i think i need a nap.i'm really tired, physically and mentally..
oh yar, i'm so happy for my boyfriend today, it was his d-day aka demo-day for his team project. And i'm so glad god answered another of my prayer. his product was working fine and he scored 54/50,i.e. he earned 4 bonus point.so he had pocketed a distinction again this sem. I guess his lifeless in brisbane is all worth it after all. i hope he does better and better.. but shit, tat means it's more pressure for me!! damn it. See what i am like when i'm tired, i start swearing. i shall stop.BYE..
Something from my bible reading today..
We ought always to thank God for you, brothers, and rightly so, because your faith is growing more and more, and the love every on of you has for each other is increasing.
Therefore, among God's churches we boast about your perseverance and faith in all the persecutions and trails you are enduring.
All this is evidence that God's judgement is right, and as a result you will be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for which you are suffering. God is just: He will pay back trouble to those who trouble you and give relief to you who are troubled, and to us as well.
This happen when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven in blazing fire with his powerful angels.
He will punish those who do not know God and do not obey the the gospel of our Lord Jesus.
They will be punished with everlasting destruction and shut out from the majesty of his power on the day he comes to be glorified in his holy people and to be marveled at among all those who have believed.
This includes you, because you believed our testimony to you.
With this in mind, we constantly pray for you, the our God may count you worthy of his calling, and that by his power he may fulfill every good purpose of yours and every act prompted by your faith. We pray this so that the name of our Lord Jesus may be glorified in you, and you in him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.
And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who eanestly seek him (Hebrews 11:6)
With faith and thanksgiving, we can please god. With faith and thanksgiving, god will find us worthy of his callings. So keep that faith and always be grateful and thankful of whatever we have.We must learn to cherish our love ones.
