my cute little nephewlife is unpredictable, pls cherish every moment
5:01 AM
aiyo, 1 wk dint update my blog liao. cos i was on 5 days of PM shift, follow by AM shift.
I guess a lot of my blog reader miss my updates rite? haha lol...
Last wk enjoying a lot lo... 5 PM le.. once in a history..
But tis wk only 1 PM, the rest are all AM.
Tis sunday goin on night liao...
Today its only 29/10 and i am like counting for the next pay day lor..
wad to do, not enough money. he.. he.. he..
Hm... let me recall back wad had happened?
Hmm... hm... hm.....
nothing much to update le...
oh, visited wx blog, makes me think of maggots.
I got tis pt currently on biodressing. 400 maggots was put inside. and the pt can feel tt the maggots are eating up the dead tissue of his.
after 48 hours, the maggots will start to crawl out from the wound.
one day, when i took over the case, Mr cheow is so excited to show us the maggots
All the student were vy excited, they all went to see too..
eventhough i felt scared, i also want to have a peep.
So i went in and i saw nothing.
Then i told mr cheow "i cant see anything"
then he started to point to me, the corner of the pt's bed.
guess wad i saw, the maggots were at the edge of the bed, twisting around..
yucky!!! i straight away ran out from the room.
rying to concentrate back to receive report.
tis time round, mr cheow called me and when i turned around, i saw maggots inside the biohazzard bag so close to me. I screamed lo... wad the!!!
sadly to say tt Mr Lee passed away. He was still opening his eyes as per normal and asking for smth when i make ward rounds.
in less than 45 mins he collapsed. It was really shocked.
as he was not DIL listed pt. all along he was fine and was a vy co-operative pt.
they did active resus, managed to revived him.
the reg was asking if the pt family whether they want an aggressive management all the way.
it took them quite a while to decide tt they are goin to give up on him.
dun wan to intubate him. quite sad when i heard of tt decision.
however it was a good decision too as he has quite a poor prognosis.
not a single nr will want to give up on a pt's life..
really lor....
I did last office for him. thats the one and last thing i can do for him..
i dint manage to close his mouth, but manage to close his eyes.
I tink the muscle alre tight..
but b4 he passed away, at least the few family members were there.
unlike some, no family member to visit. thats really sad.
After he passed away, another pt followed.
the next morning, my another pt was telling me tt he had stayed in hospital for 1 mth and 1 day.
he said along the way, he saw 5 ppl's body packed up.
he told me he was very scared, he is still young unlike them.
i told him that he had alre fought thru his way and asked him not to worry. he went to ICU and subsequently to GW.
he was telling me that nobody visited him on tt sunday. i told him tt they will come and ask him not to tink too much.
I was happy that he shared all those things with me.
He was one of the quiet pt. Tt was kind of an achievement for me too.
I love my assignment today. I am a floater, porter plus trendcare chasser for tis 1 day.
Nice and lovely job. at first, tot that its goin to be hard on me.
But in the end, i loved it!!
hans was jealous and told sis tt she wants to take up my assigment for tmr.. hahaha...
I am ancy's assistance for today.
associate N I/C le... must give some title ma... dun laugh at me hor..
ok..
shall update till here la.

yest.......
Hm.... long2 story to say. Take a deep breath in and lets begin..
Everything was still fine b4 reveiving report.
I am takin centre. After Imelda passed over her side to me, I moved on to the othes side.
Jasmine was there waiting for me.
She passed and I was checking thru the IMR
I didnt notice that my junior was not following me.
Its only when she started to shout at the 2 of us
" U ppl are so clever is it? U can do ur stuff without ur junior? If anything goes wrong, i 'll say that i didnt listen to ur report. U ppl answer for it!"
I was shocked, did she need to shout and say all this at the 2 of us?
I asked Jasmine to repeat over the report passing.
Before we finished passing over, she alre walked off.
I ignored her....
She complained to Beena. Beena came to ask me what happened. I told her and i explained that we did passed back to her. Beena asked me not to care abt her.
She went to give feeding for 49. Aspirated 75mls out of 100mls feeding.
the haematologist qn her, how much she will feed.
in the end she came out to tell me abt the asp. she told me she will feed 25mls
I told her to withold 1st, dun feed.
I checked with Beena, she said can feed.
So i went back to her, asked her to feed. She said" I tot u say dun feed then why now u ask me to feed?" I explained to her that i doublechecked with Beena. She was not happy abt tt.
I told her to do hourly for 50&54. she dint reply me.
4 pm I went to do dressing for 48. she was there checking his BP. the machine showed a low reading. she went out to take smth. I not sure whether she is taking the manual set.
After i completed my dressing, she went in there to check, but after that she dint inform me anything abt the BP.
Only after 7 pm (serving medicine time), she was telling the uncle that his BP is low in a loud tone.
She doesnt want to inform me in person.
I heard that so i went over. she told me BP 88/50. tis pt started on hourly but its nor ordered.
I tink she heard wrongly. when i qn her why dint u inform me earlier, she said" i told u" I asked her back" when? when did u inform me? I dunno abt it."
however she demanded that she informed me. so i walked out and told Beena.
when Beena asked her, she said she was there doin dressing. She presumed herself that i noe but i didnt.
Luckily the HO was nice, otherwise i would have been scolded and if anything happened to this pt, i have to answer.
I asked her whether she taken the VRE swab, she said they cannot do.
What is this????
can collect urine and stool specimen, give dulcolax and fleet, why cant do a rectal swab???????
I got 4 transferred in yest, 1 on PCT transfussion. she cant put up drip, I put up myself.
Lots of things she cant do. but at least help to answer call bell.
She is like escaping to every corner of the ward. she is nowhere to be found when the call bell rang.
in the midst of serving meds, i have to reassure 1 of y pt, call the son to come, give bedpan and took it away, take spoons, wet the lips for 1 of the pt, even checking temp for a pt.
I asked her for a thermoscan, she refused to answer me!!!!!
I am willing to do all this but she should at least offer a helping hand instead of disappearing.
I was so busy yest. I finished serving meds at 8 plus. it took me 1 hr plus to serve meds.
I got no time to write report. I took the MRSA, VRE swab myself.
By the time i finished my work, it was goin to be 11pm.
I was very angry with her. how can she showed attitude to me for the whole shift???
Today, i was almost late for work. I wake up at 6. I looked at the time and jumped up.
overall was fine. except, I got one pt passed away.
that was my 1st and last time nursing her. she was so young.
she left behind her husband and her children
I didnt expect her to pass away so fast.
1hr ago we just checked her BP and it was 130/70 mmhg.
Dr informed the family, they came ,he was still breathing.
they were vy sad and cried.
we screened the curtain to give them some privacy.
half and hour later somebody informed me to check the pt.
she no longer breathing and her lips alre turned white.
the family cried and cried.
it was just half an hour time and she is gone.
its really unbelievable. My heart aches too to see the family.

A student ask a teacher, "what is love?"
The teacher said, "in order to answer your question, go to the padifield and choose the biggest padi and come back.
But the rule is: you can go through them only once and cannot turn back to pick."
The student went to the field, go thru first row, he saw one big padi,but he wonders... may be there is a bigger one later.
Then he saw another bigger one... but maybe there is a even bigger one waiting for him.
Later, when he finished more than half of the padi field, he start to realise that the padi is not as big as the previous one he saw, he know he has missed the biggest one, and he regreted !!!!
So, he ended up went back to the teacher with empty hand.
The teacher told him, "...this is love... you keep looking for a better one, but when later you realise, you have already miss the person...."
"What is marriage then?" the student asked. The teacher said, "in order to answer your question, go to the corn field and choose the biggest corn and come back.
But the rule is: you can go through them only once and cannot turn back to pick."
The student went to the corn field,this time he is careful not to repeat the previous mistake, when he reach the middle of the field,
he has picked one medium corn that he feel satisfy, and come back to the teacher.
The teacher told him, "this time you bring back a corn.... you look for one that is just nice, and you have faith and believe this is the best one you get.... this is marriage.
"WH AT DO YOU THINK FOR THOSE IN LOVE AND FOR THOSE ARE MARRIED?

Yest, attended trend care talk till 5 plus. so tiring.
quite complicated. but i tink with more practise it will be fine. same like aurora.
yest morning, i took 3rd team.
2 days ago, i took centre.
i thought i took back same side yest, but i didnt.
Lucky lor... otherwise..............
She passed to me to do 1 dressing. k, fine, i am alright with it. after passing report, i realised that 1 of my pt got dressing. when i asked her did she do the dressing? she told me she didnt know that the pt got dressing.
tt pt's dressing are 3 big wound. and yet she claimed that she doesnt noe.
even if she doesnt noe, she wrote report. she herself put as refer wound chart
its not bcos of dressing that i became unhappy.
i got 3 transfer in that day.
my last dressing i finished at 9 pm. I alre promised that uncle that i will do it for him, so i did it.
ancy was asking how come i didnt ask her to do it.
she alre changed her clothes. i cant be asking her to go in and do it.
she said tt person bullied me.
the next morning, she took over the same side, but she questioned the night staff as if she never nurse that side b4.
that makes me real angry with her.
I realised that when i am on duty, my shift will never be free.
sure has something to do. maybe HE really wants me to learn and cope.
hm... its ok. it will be better that u face difficult things now, then next time I'll noe wad to do.
the baby is 5 days old now and I am an AUNTIE liao le. sounds old..
tis coming sunday, 4 of us on AM shift. good man. cant wait till sunday le. maybe can go out together. hm....

my little nephew is out...
So happy.. cute and handsome (he..he..)
he is so small but he is heavy wor (3.15kg)
today spending my whole day there.
PH granted by NO. thanks so much.
I missed my those days in nursery, looking after those little boys and girls.
past 2 days quite busy.
dint get to sleep well yet.
when i go back to the ward, my eyes were half closed.
i really dun like the team dr. wanting badly to change team dr.
Cant wait till 1/11
when they want to ask u to do smth, they approached u nicely.
But when u ask them to do a little favour for u, not once they are free.
Mr Piya passed away. so sad to look at his last state.
if only everyone will take everything as an important matter.
some ppl thinks that injection is only an injection
but the fact is tt the small needle and syringe can do magic to a pt.
some dun even bother.
when there is new life there is also a death.
everything is pre-planned.
he came back again. I began to dislike him. irritating man.
had lots of help from the ITE student. thanks to them. nice and helpful
especially when we were so busy.
shall update again when i am free

Finally, Yest got back to work after my night duty.
Too much of rest felt tired too.
1st encounter with the new HO n MO on male side.
they are really sucky, yucky man.
only ask them to set plug, they give one kind of face.
He asked why is the plug always OUT?
Wenli said accidentally out, and some alre due.
He replied, keep the plug and give the meds 1st, when i free i go n set.
wad is this? he behave as if he is a consultant.
Happily add things in the IMR without telling. and 1 of it its under stat order.
he wouldnt want to bear the responsibility in case of any meds error.
why is he so "yaya"?
he is not that busy yest. bcos he doesnt change the plug, half way during transfussion, the plug leaking. in the end have to call on call to resite iv plug.
wondering if he join this line is it only for money?
missed HO Tianrong and MO Ng. very approachable doctors unlike this 2 new DR
yest, found 1 of my previous pt. he was admitted again.
but this time his condition is in a real bad state.
previously he can chat and joke with me.
now he is lying helplessly on the bed.
i really hope that he can fight thru the disease.
sometimes life is too cruel.

Today is CHILDREN"S DAY
hahaha, too big alre. cant celebrate and no more present.
HM....
its been a week since my last entry. Doin AM PM AM PM shift. too tired to update.
past few days quite lots of things happened.
I am now stamped as a LUCKY girl...
everyone come on duty, will ask how is my day today?
1st lucky day:
I got 2 discharges. I done it myself.
been wondering few hours whether i will admit pt on my time.
when it reached 9, i was happy, cos i tot i dun need to admit any pt.
to my surprise pt came in at tis hour.
admittin 1 pt on my shift, was still a good thing.
Its only after the 2nd and 3rd also came in 5 mins later, i got a shock.
wad's tis????????
but faz and mr cheow helped me.
I managed to go back at 10 pm.
2nd lucky day:
everything was still alright till one of my pt deteriorate quite badly and passed away when i was abt to serve meds.
my mood somehow affected by that.
feel sad but cant do anything.
but tt day i learned last office procedure.
although lost, but there was few ppl to help me around.
I did cleaned his body, cos i tot that is the one and last thing i could do for him.
3rd lucky day:
yest, got 2 admission during my time. dint come at last minute but took some ime after pt come waiting for the on call to clerk the case.
one is a post resus case.
is it part of learning period or i am really "LUCKY"?
the GCS was 7. pt had a fall and cant communicate.
previously, everything was fine with him.
Inserted r/t, having hard time putting urosheath.(hans saw tt)
another admission, the pt is for bld transfussion(hans helped me)
one of the trache pt askin to be suck,
one auntie askin to put on diapers.
it all happened at the same time.
when one thing start to happen, u ll try to link all of them up together.
come to think abt it, i was really lucky lor. cos got so many helping hands around.
today everything went smoothly. after half of my shift, i realised got one pt for LP. my mind was wondering again, " why am i so lucky?"
i bring myself to think positively.
hey, he wants u to learn something independently.
LP started after my duty, but went in to help.
Hard a good laugh of the DR inside.
gonna change team dr liao. gonna miss my good HO, and sometimes a mood swing MO.
both of them on call yest. so today rather blur.
If i were them, i dun tink i can still stay awake and make rounds.
thanks to u guys.
shall update in few days time. cos i am goin on night duty on wed
