home from operation...knee's still swollen but me being strong so no need crutches...hahaha...had physio this morning and there was this mini comotion amongst the therapists cuz got this girl who was in the newspapers and got some injury there also...something tells me i spelt 'comotion' wrongly...nvm...please correct me if it's not right...well anyway...was quite nervous yesterday again...had to wear this surgery robe and take off even my dei kor...tot dun need one...well, tried in vain to tie the robe's ends myself but gave up so just stood there like an idiot showing my white ass as the nurse helped me to tie...and then they made me lie on this mobile bed and wheeled me to the operating area...it just feels weird lah...i haven't been operated on yet and they're pushing me around...it just feels not right...newae the nurse from my ward was nice and gave me a reassuring smile and saying bye b4 going back...so the anesthetist who was this caucasian stuck a needle into my left hand but could not find the vein properly(fat hands loh) and did it again on my right hand, all the while talking to me...asked me wad i going to study and when i told him engineering, he replied, "dun you want to become a doctor?"...yah...with fucked up grades like mine...i also wish...but he was damn nice lah...eased my nervousness...and then it was freaking cold cuz i only had the robe on...he saw me shivering and put this hose blowing warm air at my legs there with the air blowing up to my body...so it felt nice and warm till it got abit too hot there, cuz i wasn't wearing underwear as mentioned b4...hope not too many of my fighters died...hahaha!and then the fun part came...when it came to my turn to be operated on, the anesthetist told his assitant, "nitrous please"...and his assistant put the mask on me telling me"ok...here's some oxygen for you...i think he tot that sound din travel well in the room lah so maybe i din hear the "nitrous" being mentioned earlier...maybe it was a mixture of both lah...dunno...and he went, " if you feel like sleeping, just sleep ok?"...i tot, "okie"...well if i din feel like can dun meh?and then i felt my breathing becoming shallower...the "oxygen" had a funny smell reminiscent of my childhood asthma days in the hospital...felt my eyes closing...my body became weak...and then this numbing feeling started flowing flowing downwards to my hands and legs...anesthetist to me"ok, you will feel a warm sensation in your hand now" as he injected some stuff into the drip needle on my hand...no, i din feel a warm sensation...just b4 i fell asleep i tried to wriggle my body just for fun to see how much i could fight the sleeping effect...din work much...hahaha...then zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...
ok lah...it wasn't as pain as i expected it to be...almost puked so din have much dinner though it tasted good...and oh yah...i was supposed to be staying in a b1 ward but they din have any beds so they gave me a a1 ward...like a hotel room lah...tv, aircon, own toilet...and the nurses were telling me the bed was the most comfortable one in the ward...so quite lucky lah...and they tot i was a young kid at first...pui...only later one of them went " oh...he 84 one..."...but they were a bunch of nice pple...din want to bother them so tried not to call them much but they got worried cuz i din pee and din eat much, constantly telling me, " ey you must drink more water hor...............ey if you hungry or need anything must call us ok?"...not bad...felt quite pampered there...but the doc said i was good to go home today so oh well, bobian, not i dun mind staying there longer also...got pretty girls to luk after me...hahahahahahahahhahahaha!din know who to write also for the outstanding nurse question in the discharge survey...
