A nephrostomy is done, now what? Why does the word hysterectomy come so many times from so many doctor’s mouth? Just because the fibroid is too huge to be operated on, doesn’t mean I have to have a hysterectomy, right? Excuse me, I am only 25!! It is not the matter of whether my future husband would mind if I could not bear him any children, it is my personal desire to have children of my own, haha :)) the problem is me, haha. I am just too young for a hysterectomy!!
Dr. Selvam did warn me of the risk of a hysterectomy in the event of heavy bleeding while removing the fibroid. But the Lord knows my heart’s desire, which I think it’s His wisdom on the doctor to come and tell me that the opt is called off. That Monday morning itself, Dr. Selvam came by to see me and prepare me again for the opt in the afternoon. Having seen that I was so insistent in bugging him about helping preserve my uterus, he came back again, within 5 minutes, with the CT scan results, and changed the whole plan. So it is that the opt is called off, replacing it with Zoladex to shrink the stupid fibroid first.
Right now, after the nephrostomy, I would still have to readmit for another procedure, inserting a “stent” but dunno for what, haha… as long as I recover, and surgery is totally unnecessary :p all I know is I AM TOO YOUNG FOR A HYSTERECTOMY, AND I REFUSE IT IN THE NAME OF JESUS *winkz*

WHERE IS YOUR HEART?
Indeed a question that has long been thrown at me. Truly, where is my heart? Finally, out of the abundance of my heart, my mouth spoke. Could she now understand that I love where I am right now because I feel very at home with the new group of people? Is it a place that I have been attached to for decades but cud not call “home”? Or is it a place of “home” which I eventually have to let it slip thru my fingers because I cud never be attached to it due to circumstances?
Where is my heart? DUMC? It is seriously no point bluffing and covering up anymore than I used to. Indeed, DUMC is a place I feel so connected to… No need for anymore debate or argument on this issue, haha… Action speaks louder than words *winkz* It is definitely obvious when they insistently wanted to come visit me in the hospital, despite their busy schedules, juz to be with me… Thanks, guys!! Really appreciate all of it :)
Speaking of which, only 4 days in that horrible hospital, and I’m already facing so many ugly experiences (biasa la)… Boredom is definitely first on the list, haha :)) Eat, sleep… eat sleep… haiyoh!! Was admitted on Tuesday, initially with the doctor’s intention of draining the water out of my swollen kidneys… harrr?? :O now, whatever on earth is hydronephrosis?
Anyway, I was scheduled for a CT scan at 2.45 pm yesterday. With that I was told to fast food and liquid until the scan was over… It came up to a total of 22 hrs of fast!! Oh, the taste of water on my lips was indescribable, haha… After that 22 long hours, I consumed one whole litre bottle of water in a gulp. And my mom’s Tom Yam bee hoon was super awesome, haha. Anyway, the fact that I was released back home even for a day feels really great, after pestering & sweet talking the doctors, haha… But then, I came home with a swollen back of my hand because the doctor had recklessly poked my bone instead of a vein, which she only realized after I gave a loud shriek!! What, you mean you doctors don’t know how to differentiate a vein and a bone? haha :)) made my whole right arm numb *sigh*
I have to be back there again tomorrow, latest in the evening because an opt to remove the fibroid in my stomach is to be done on Monday… But I shall be out of the hospital soon, and be back to cell like usual again… wait for me!!
[p/s: ooh, *pstt* there is this cute Indian doctor (fairer side of an Indian la), who, I think, is in charge of the gynecology ward :p good that my bed is by the door, hehe… I can take a peep whenever he pass by, kekeke XD I didn’t know hospital oso can “cuci mata” one la *LOL*]

BETTER TO BLESS THAN BE BLESSED!!
Last night is probably one of the nights that I feel tremendously blessed. It is especially satisfying to see that you can be used to bless others.
First off, DUMC started this new Zone Prayer thingy, where each cell under one zone will meet to pray and minister (may I add fellowship) to one another. Yesterday was PJ North 4 & PJ South 2 under Pastor Seng Fei. No doubt, I was jittery and therefore hesitating whether or not to go since I dont really like big crowds. But I went anyway. I am not a fan of corporate prayer meetings, but I was really glad I decided to go. Juz being in His presence was what I needed. In a way, I am blessed by what was shared. But in another sense, I am blessed to be able to bless others *winkz*
Go back 4 hours before the zone prayer. I was keeping myself busy with making some muffins again, this time around to bless more people, since the last time I only made enough for my own cell members, heh. Ooh, the joy of seeing people appreciate your effort and being blessed by it :) but Sharon & Alvin from Father’s Garden said the blueberry one taste better, and I thought so too. Anyway, someone offered the suggestion of having them muffins for this year’s CARNIVAL, heh.
