Clinic to Hospital

Oh it’s audit week and the important auditor is already here. Help us Lord to face the crucial time with a right mindset and confidences. Let us pass this audit In Jesus name I pray, Amen! I have nothing to write but something inside me insisted me to do so. So here goes nothing!
Last Saturday I woke up early, feeling excited knowing that day I would bring ‘Eden to the clinic for his 1st vaccination. As for my wife, she needed to accompany her mom to the clinic and if there were extra time, she’d joint me and Dresden. She was on that Saturday due t some event in the evening at Hilton. Dresden was like me, excited and jubilantly jumping here and running around. Since it is the 1st dog for me personally, I really need time to adapt to him - Dog produces smells which is not acceptable to my nose!! So Que Sera Sera… Frankly I want a home CAT! Cat is easy to take care off, less noise, less smell, less movement and all are lesser compare to a dog’s needs. Again, Que Sera, sera… I packed my things, lap top, PS2, modem, cables and cell phone into my friendly bag while Dresden was inside another friendly bag and seconds later, I drove straight to the animal clinic which is just 10 minutes from home. I took my time to arrange things in the car knowing that I’ll be at the clinic until late evening. Yeah, I’m a part timer there, doing cleaning and stock checking weekly. I saw my elder brother Terry already there, washing the back part which is the boarding place for the animals. The clinic have few rooms, 1 room is for consultation, next to it is the operation theater, opposite the consultation room is the doctor’s office and a pantry attached to it. The clinic provides treatment and medication and also cum a mini supermarket which sells animals foods and vitamins and accessories. Besides that, it provides boarding place incase the owner needs to travel for a long period of time. Hmm, why am I writing about the clinic?
Dresden didn’t get his vaccination because he has skin issue which needed to be settled first. Well, I just follow what the vet said since I’m also was not inherit to go elsewhere. That morning was quite slow. So we had brunch around 11.30am. OMG, the kueh tiau goreng was superb! You should try it if you go there. It’s fabulous! I ordered it for the 2nd time for lunch but with tomato gravy! Yeah, brunch and lunch, just 1 hr difference! Obviously the food was great! Dresden and Lily were sleeping peacefully in the boarding area. There is Spike, a huge German shepherd whom is having bleeding toes and also blacky whom just been knocked by a car and he seems to be paralyzed from his abdomen downwards! The doctor performed a daily physiotherapy to check whether he can walk like normal or not. Poor Blacky, he is helpless! I think it is best to put him to sleep permanently. The atmosphere change after lunch. More customers came. But my watery sleepy eyes were stronger than my self. The highly carbohydrate food that I ate consume all my energy to digest and process the foods which made me feel weak and helpless. I started to sail and snore like the huge titanic for few minutes when suddenly a lady customer was already in front of me at the counter asking for information. Finally she claimed that the cat has a dental problem and requested the problematic toothed to be removed. Minutes later, a man with his cat who suffers from heart disease arrived for some medication. The last patience for that day was a weak calf. The 6 weeks old calf was helpless and he was really helpless! Anyway, the doctor knows what to do.
The clinic closed around 5.30pm. I went home around 5.45pm accompanied by my brother. We went to riveria to settle my Dresden and after that we drove directly to Sri Ijah for dinner. At that time, I was fatigue! But I had a royal like dinner, thanks mom! I had Dabai, tempoyak, kasam babi in daun ubi, mix vage with prawn soup, sambal belacan and a brazilian corn beef! I ate like I never see food!!! Hungry and fatigue!. After dinner I played with Pithui for a while. Pithui is getting classy! Compare to what? I don’t know.. hehehee… I reached home around 7.00pm, took my bath on the TV and ZZzzzzzzzz. But suddenly mom called my cell phone asking me to come back and send my dad to the clinic. What??? I’m tired and I gave her 1001 reasons and continue back with my sleep. Mom I’m so sorry! Cut the story short, around 10.30pm, my brother Andy called, telling me that dad was admitted to the hospital and I need to be there immediately. I was shocked for a while, my wife had not return from her work so I grab the key and drove to the general hospital. I decided not to tell my wife about this.
At the hospital, I saw both of my brothers were already there together with my sister Doli and her husband too. Megan and Ezra were at home with mom at Sri Ijah. I saw dad lying on his bed helplessly. His blood pressure was over 200mmHg both systolic and diastolic. Scary! I’m not ready for this I told myself! Minutes later, my elder sister came with his husband and their 3 sons. Dad insisted all of us to go home and wait until tomorrow for the final test results. When dad asleep, I left the hospital with my brother , followed by Ivy and the family and lastly was my brother Andy. Frankly, we need to get mom insured since she had nothing to cover her unlike dad!. I arrived home around 2 am. Tired and sad! Early in the morning my sisters smsed me asking about dad and I sms Andy to get the latest information. Praise God, my dad was already discharged and he is now at home, preparing him selves for church. I was happy and relief and I could not wait to see him.
Well, I think I write enough. I want to write more on what happen that Sunday but my fingers getting tired. I’ll continue later since I have nothing to write…. Hehehehe….
