Day 3: from IV to oral

-
Day 3 - Saturday, March 24
 
Everyone had to go. Ministry day - breakTime in CCF Eastwood. I was alone in the morning. I cleaned the room. I took a shower. I prepared Nadene’s food. I was a busy rodent lol. I studied (currently taking up Systematic Theology with my church friends) for our finals, read the Bible, prayed, napped, ate ice cream, hmnn and lots of ice cream! Pain was just okay until my nurse told me that all meds, I will have to take orally. Hmnn, not soooo okay with the idea but again, choice-less! It's not as if meds through IV don't hurt, they do, too. Pain reliever and antibiotic really were painful when injected through my veins.

From 1-10, pain in swallowing went a little higher to 4... still tolerable though...

Dr. Kirt was out today. There was a gorgeous lady who checked on me, she smiles less but she’s also nice. 

Nadene came by around 3pm with Emji. They ate lunch, I had ice cream. Emj had to go by 5:30pm to attend another ministry in CCF Gateway, then go home to her family. Nadene stayed with me overnight.

My Tonsillectomy Journey

I don't know much about medical stuff, I took up BS ECE in college, and I am currently working as a supervisor in a BPO company. So pardon my innocence in this blog. I'm writing this for the sake of those who will and who are going through the healing process after a tonsillectomy. Hope this helps! I was scheduled to undergo tonsillectomy 10am of March 22nd. According to the doctors I consulted, having tonsillitis of more than twice a year isn’t normal - mine used to be more than twice a MONTH . Also, year after year of my APE in my workplace, I had been told that my tonsils were bigger than normal, which may be the reason why I was snoring and had difficulty in breathing most of the time. Of course, they talked to me in jargon. Don't worry, I would talk in a way easy for someone like me who isn’t good with medical terms understand it better. I had my flexible endoscopy on March 20, Tuesday. A friend, Lian, was with me. It was in Borough just ne...

Submitting to God's Plans

Remember this blog ? I can't help but write about what's next... I met a guy at work when I was in college. I was a working student. I loved him, and it was my heart's choice. Again, I let my heart rule. I was so into him, that I was even willing to leave my family for us. He smokes, he drinks, he didn't want to attend school, and worst thing is he cheated on me. From what I knew, it was only 3 times but it's no longer important. He broke up with me on our 3rd year anniversary. He chose to be with his girl, she was his officemate. My world crashed. For the very first time in my life, I went to a bar and cried over him. I couldn't remember what happened because I got myself so drunk that night. I was with my bestfriend. All I could remember was my brother picked me up, he brought me home and I was crying so hard that night. The next day, nanay brought me to the mall and bought me an mp3 player --- I wanted to have an mp3 player that time. I then realized...
