Was away the whole afternoon yesterday
Bad news:
Because my grandpa has suffer a mild stroke and was admitted to the hospital
He was there on Tuesday and we weren't informed till Friday
As my mum was busy with her work, we have pushed to Sunday, which is yesterday, to visit him
Drove all the way from Choa Chu Kang to Simei, where Changi General Hospital is located
Long distance yo...
About half an hour or so?
Actually we do not need to ask my aunts which room my grandpa is staying, because the moment we enter the ward, we can actually track down which room he's in
He was chatting with the other patients in the room and it was so loud that we could even hear him
Some embarrassing moments happened in the room...shan't mention it..hehe..it's about my grandpa
My uncle bought some popiah earlier in the afternoon before we reach, well, that's what I heard from my aunt later on, and my grandpa intended to share his popiah to his 'roommates'
So he said: hey..you guys want some and COME and get it from me
I was like...o.O?
Er..how are they suppose to get off they beds and get popiah from you when all of them are having difficulties walking?
One of them had his left limp amputated
One of them has a bandaged left leg
One old man has a damn freaking swollened left leg
The last old man has to walk about with a walking stick looking blurr @_@
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm....
I've notice one thing from the above old men I've mention
All of them, including my grandpa, have problems on their left legs!
My grandpa's left leg is abit numb
Hoho...is that how they put the patients in one room?
Those people have problems on their left leg one room..
Right leg another room
Right arm one room and left arm one room?
Ok...enough of my rubbish...
The smell of the hospital reminds me of two things
Firstly, my paternal grandma
She was in and out of the hospital before she died of cancer and we have to visit her every now and then at that period of time
Miss her so much
Secondly, myself..
I was in the hospital when I was four and I still remember, Singapore General Hospital ( I was borned there too)
Had a very very high fever and a very very bad cough
Hard for me to breathe because all the phlegm got stuck in my lungs and I can't cough it out
Docter even suspect I got asthma before he found out actually it's not
I vomitted out whatever things I ate
Suffering yo...it's very suffering
Unfortunately that was the month of March..
My dad requested to bring me home for one day to celebrate my birthday
Was happily singing ~Happy birthday~ at my grandma's place...happily cutting the cake..happily eating the cake (which I'm not suppose to at that time actually)
And then..
*BI BO BI BO BI BO!!* (ambulance)
In I go..back to the hospital
And that...was when...my cousin, Thalia, was born too...hehe..
Good news:
We went to the nearby shopping mall after we left the hospital
We were asked to leave because the visiting hours is from 12pm to 2pm and 5pm to 8pm
Bought myself two long necklaces...hehe
Love it
