Surgery, the Sequel



Hi, y'all. It's me the super extra LAZY blogger again. Remember my littel post bout' my surgery way back when. Guess what, there's a sequel. My first surgery went great and risk to my well being.....poof.....all gone. But cosmetic wise...., mm... let me illustrate with a picture
So, what do you think? I was suppose to get it trimmed to make it look nicer last Thursday, but as fate will have it, I caught a cough. Well, I probably shouldn't blame fate as I probably let myself go during CNY and had perhaps a bit too much junk. Ok,Ok a lot too much junk. So the doctor set me on a course of antibiotic to see if I could get better in a week. The thing is if I was back here in kuching, that wouldn't be much of an issue but at the time, I was in Penang staying in a hotel( well, actually it was the Penang YMCA hostel but it still cost a pretty penny--My Dad's but money nonetheless) so we checked out the prices for tickets back home but in the end , it was more econmical to stay in penang till the follow-up. So began my week in penang playing tourists but it was more or less a snooze fest. I did go to Alor Setar and Ipoh but din't stay for long. Actually it was more like my dad and I went just to have lunch cos' we had nothing to do in Penang. Sure, we went to the big shopping complexes in Penang but one could only windowshop so many times before getting bored out of your wits.
A week finally passed and I went to see the doctor but I still had a little cough left in me. Here's what happened,I walk in, the doctor asks me how is ur cough but before I could even utter a word in response a tiny cough came out and the doctor said without a second thought "No, We cannot do the surgery". Look, I'm not trying to make the doctor look bad here. The thing is the rules actually dictates that a patient up for surgery must be in perfect health for 3 weeks prior to the sugery plus the phlegm in one's throat can really be hazardous if it enters the lungs ( Durning surgery a tube will be insertedet down my throat prbably to facilitate breathing--hvnt done my research-- and if I had phlegm in my throat it will be pushed into my lungs.)Now, I'm back in the waiting list, probably gonna get my surgery in April and thats that. Back to Kuching I go with a trip wasted. (Damn, I wish I had more self-control during CNY)
