APPENDICITIS

hello hello all! thank you thank you thank you very very much for all the LOVE care and concern. i think its been doing more good than the pills the doctors prescribed. an especially big THANK YOU to charles teo cheng chuan for making sure that i had company all the time, tucking me into bed, feeding me water, watching cinderella story with me and basically making the pain a gabillion times better (:

so anyway, for those who want to know what happened, here's the scoop:

day 1: thursday april 5
i woke up with a biting pain in my stomach but i decided to suck it up and go to school since i only had four periods (and cause suihui cant survive w/o me). after assembly, i decided i couldnt tahan the pain any longer and went to see mr seet for an excuse letter to leave school. the moment i stepped out of school, my vomit spree started. cabbed home and waited for dad to come home and take me to the doctor. the doctor gave me an injection to stop the vomitting but after 3 hours, the vommiting didnt stop and i was vommiting foam and green stuff(bile?) practically every ten mins. i dont know how to bullimics do it, vomiting isnt fun. okay back to the story, by then i was feeling a bit wobbly and seeing double so dad rushed me to the hospital, i dont know how but mum turned up. i was put into a wheelchair and hurried into A&E. in the midst of all the hustle, the nurse admitted me as amande lim cui hui. so everyone was calling me mandee mandee and i thought oh god, ive really lost it. A&E waiting room = drama, there were people screaming, moaning, groaning and crying. in the midst of it all, the police were trying to pacify a dishevelled mad man with a bleeding nose and a swollen eye. he was hurling vulgarities at everyone and laughing hysterically and i basically panicked because he was standing so near me. i started breathing really quickly and my body started cramping up. at one point in time, my cheeks were numb and i could barely speak when the the doctor asked me what was wrong. after that, all i remember is the doctor putting her finger into my anus and injecting me.

when i woke, the pain was gone and mum was next to me holding my hand. after a urine test, x rays and a bowl of porridge. they moved me to my ward (8A bed 3) At this point of time, i had received a million messages from concerned individuals and i was feeling really loved and lucky. At around 9pm, the doctors came to examine me and diagnosed me with acute appendicitis and the op was scheduled to be after midnight cause i had eaten the stupid bowl of porridge at 5.

having the operation meant that i would be out of action for a month and miss half the hockey season. hockey training would have gone to waste and i was very very ):


(im going to have lunch now, ill continue later, more more more more more drama)
