Can S33r

24 August 2011
Took high blood pressure pill after 'sahur'. To SGH for surgery at 10am
Surgery postponed to 2pm.
At 1.30pm on my way out from clinic for zohor prayer, my name was called saying that the surgery room is ready. Fortunately another nurse did a check and confirmed surgery at 2pm. She suggested that i pray in the changing room and apologises for having no sejadah. I performed my zohor in the changing room accompanied by my daughter. My last prayer in sujud 'Ya Allah, I tawakal pada Mu'.
After changing, another nurse asked me whether i want to see my husband before going to the surgery room. She asked me to wait and my daughter went out to call for my husband. Parting kisses with wondering whether i will be seeing him again or not, so as for my daughter.

How do i feel?
Uncomfortable and mind fully occupied with unnecessary things. I left my fate in the hand of Allah as He knows the best for His hamba.

Pushed me into waiting room before entering operation theatre room and i told them that i am taking high blood pressure medicine but unable to tell them the name of the medicine. I told them to take the name from my daughter who is waiting outside. The nurse came back and told me that my family already left. I suggested that they call them and gave my daughter's name (the only number which i can remember at that time). Nurse came back and said that they are on their way home.

Pushed into the operation theatre where i met Dr Benita Tan. Feel sleepy and suddenly was in deep sleep and woke up to a female voice telling me that the operation is over. My left arm are attached to the high blood machine and was too sleepy to look around.

Wheeled back to the day surgery ward and the first person i saw was my daughter followed by my husband.

How do i feel?
Syukur se syukur syukurnya, thanking Allah for giving me a chance to continue living.

Later in the evening, my brother and his wife came to visit. Spent most of the night sleep. My daughter accompanied me the whole night and i was a lucky mother to have a filial daughter who attended my needs. She wiped after i urinate with no sign of disgust, am amazed with her sincerity, may Allah bless her a happy life with her loved ones.

I was on drip and on drainage below my right breast.

How do i feel?
Tightness on my right arm, unable to move it freely due to the removal of lymph nodes.
