Well... Yesterday has truly been a day of unluck... But let me recap what has happened thus far...
2-3 weeks ago: My mom met with a car accident on the way back to S'pore from Msia... Fortunately, everyone on the car managed to survive the accident... However, My mom had broken 4 fingers in her left hand [the 4 other than the thumb]... By the time she got back to S'pore, the doctors initially said that all 4 fingers had to be cut off.... [ My mother herself told me later that all the bones could not be seen, meaning it sort of scattered by the impact of the crash or something]
However, when the resident professor came to see my mother's hand, he felt that he could save a few of her fingers... Thus, the doctors wheeled her into the O.R, and had an 8 hr operation, and managed to save 2 of her fingers [3rd and 4th]. My mother then stayed in the hospital for 1 week of observation..
After the week, she came back home to rest, but was scheduled to go to the hospital again... She needed to do a skin graft.
Last week: Mother went into the O.R again to have her skin graft.. Then she had another few days of obsearvation in the hospital... During this time, my father and I have been taking care of her, and even my father stayed back to take care of her...
This week: On Monday, she had another small operation [another skin graft] to mend the last section of unemnded skin.. Thus, we spent another few days, until yesterday, where we took care of her in the hospital while she was under observation.
I shall have to write another post... This will have to do, for now...
I can't think straight
