Surgeries

Had a productive day at work today. The day started off with tonsillectomy done by moi, a bit jittery due to lack of practice; not by choice though - the operation theater was closed for 2 months. Then had a nose procedure on another patient; TIT (trimming of the inferior turbinates). I did the left side and my colleague, K did the right. In the afternoon had an ear procedure - called M&G (myringotomy and grommet insertion) which is loosely translated as making a hole in the ear drum and putting a ventilation tube in place to drain the middle ear fluid. As before, I did the left side and K did the right. That was my first M&G and it went well. Thankfully.

I am thankful to my ENT surgeons, Mr H and Ms M for allowing us to actually perform those procedures and my sincere gratitude for your patience in teaching us!

Thank you and thank you. I'll make an effort to read up more to be a better student, Insya-Allah!

Oh, just received a call.. better get ready because someone's going to watch Mamma Mia the movie with a significant someone :p. Tickets courtesy of the radio station light and easy.

The day could not get any better :)

Bousouq

This is dedicated to you Bousouq!

My beloved cat
With an attitude
Used to call you 'Busuk', but decided to change it for the better
You respond lovingly too when I call.. Bous and sometimes Souq
You still smell but you always smell good to me
Although you gave me fleas last year, I still love you
Of course I like you better without those nasty fleas
But as always it's never your fault, those fleas attracted to you
You are like a big brother to the fleas ridden cats
Always playing with them
And when their mums left them you even groomed them
Now, have you ever seen a cat with such an attitude?
Walked gracefully when called
Never in a hurry
That's when I discovered the true meaning of 'catwalk'
Exactly like those models on the runway; even better I must say!

If my memory serves me right

It is only 9.30 pm but I'm soo sleepy! Think I'll sleep early today. Have to make sure I arrive early to work tomorrow. Hmm.. but something is not right. Something important is happening tomorrow. I'm pretty sure I have to read up something just to be prepared for the onslaught of questioning; which is the norm in the medical world. Quote 'We should never stop studying' unquote. What IS going on tomorrow??? HELP.. my memory is soo bad.

OH I JUST REMEMBERED. Tomorrow is Nuzul Quran and it's a PUBLIC HOLIDAY for Selangor and for once I'M NOT ON CALL!!! hahahahahahha.. No wonder it's soo hard to remember. It's unusual for me to enjoy normal off days like other normal people in a normal working environment, working normal hours. OH WAIT.. and why is my work so abnormal again? Eh it's normal for ME because I'm not normal.

hahahaha... gotcha! Don't worry..when I'm working my default mode is usually NORMAL :p

Close encounter

I have many reasons to be thankful for. Number 1 on my list today is a praise to God Almighty that the child survived. I have to count my blessings. Alhamdulillah..
