Today wasn't a very good day. Many people will think that it is inevitable to witness death in an hospital but this is not true. It all depends on which department you are working at. Well I sort of witness a death today and this event occurred at my mom's clinic for outpatients. This clinic is for people to see the doctor and to go home after that, no hospitalizations is required. No one will expect death in this clinic but today was an exception.
During lunch time, I went to my mom's clinic to find her for lunch but when I got there, my mom was packing the resuscitation machine and asked me to wait for her in her office because someone had just passed away. My heart was pumping so fast! My reaction was HUH?!!!
That man wasn't very ill and I guess his family members didn't really expected it. How he died? He collapse on his wheel chair and the nurses and the doctors had to push him into a room to revive him. My mom even had to alert The Code Blue team, which is also the resuscitation team. I think the clinic was super chaotic at that moment. Luckily I wasn't there. I think I may cry or something.
The deceased man's family didn't take it too well. When he was pronounced dead, the doctors and the nurses allowed his family to go into the room, his wife thought that he was sleeping and asked him to wake him. His son couldn't take the blow either. When he called his siblings to inform them about it, he was smiling and laughing. I think it really came as a shock to all of them. I don't mean that his son didn't respect his dad by laughing. To me, he didn't know how to react and I guess he couldn't accept this news. He still needed time to digest this news and to let it sink into him. Like I said, no one will expect dead at that clinic. This kind of experience is really scary and I don't wish to see it again. Maybe that is the reason why I don't like hospitals.
Got my Feb schedule. I have to work on feb9, which is chu san of CNY! I can't CAN'T work on that day. Also, I need to take lots of leaves because of my birthday and my driving theory lessons. Talking about feb, my BIRTHDAY is around the corner! Woohoo! I have came up with my list of prezzies that I want from my family! muhahaha! I want something that I have been asking for since last feb and Christmas! Now, I really want it. The prezzie list that I have been thinking about are stuffs that I can use when I go overseas and also to remember the people as well. At least I know that they will always be close to me no matter where I am! Being away from home will be really difficult. sob sob. Sometimes I ask God why did I have to love animals and this burning passion to save them. Singapore doesn't have this course! The road ahead will be hard and it's sad that my family can't go there with me. sob sob
