One surgery, 2 days in hospital, few follow-up appointments with the doctor and many physiotherapy session doesn't make me down all time.(sometimes)
I didn't even tell anybody except family about it until I was discharged from hospital. Admitted - alone.
Just because I didn't anyone to come to visit and make a big fuss of it.. Its just a surgery.. hand surgery. :)
Besides my slip disc, the doctor discover that my nerve is almost disconnected. My small little right finger. That is the finger which been slashed during the mugged incident 2 years ago.
Two disease which is not related to each other came into my life at the same time.
4 days after the surgery, I came back to work during MC. Finishing off the workload and few events, I only finishing off my real MC in JB on the last week.
September has taught me well.
Patient is no longer here with me.
I burst the anger without realizing it. Bad.
Emotionally drown just because for few weeks I can only use one hand to eat, drive and live!
Living as a human with temporarily disability made me wonder how beautiful life is.
I still can laugh, go out meeting friends and go to the office as usual.
I refuse to feel sick most of the time since I do not want to be labelled as a sick person.
Continuing my physiotherapy for my lil finger, I will undergo another surgery early next month.
This time around, I decided to tell everyone I know.
The laser slip disc surgery. Quite serious, isnt? Hahaha.
Two days after my 27th birthday, I'll be admitted in Pantai..(yet again)
PHKL has been my 2nd home since 2 months ago. Impressive? Haha..
Two areas in the hospital- Spine and Joint Centre also Micro Surgery Hand Centre can be considered as the most places that I've visited other than my home and workplace.
The nurses and doctors are great. They treated me like a friend -not a patient since I always tell them-
My name is Alia and dont refer me as "patient". :)
Furthermore, the service are excellent and of course, it worth every amount that youve paid.
Honestly - this sickness made me broke :/ LOL.
I am ok. Always try to tell myself that Im not sick.
When you are sick, there are two things left...which is your mindset to toughen your spirit and more money!
Seriously, sympathy doesn't pay your hospital bills and money has a very huge advantage on this.:)
:) Hello October!
