Warded in TTSH: Day 05

Another uneventful day.

I got a lot of visitor which is good and bad at the same time. Good to see friends and relatives but you can't control the timing that they come by and so it was a little difficult to get some rest in the afternoon.

I was told that the slot for the procedure to open up the bile duct is on Wednesday. I will attempt to talk to the doctors tomorrow because the small intestine obstruction is getting worse and even fluids are having difficulty going down. Secondly, if the procedure is on Wednesday for the bile duct, not sure if they can have the procedure to open up the small intestine to be done on Thursday. If not, Friday is Good Friday and a public holiday, in other word, I will probably have to wait till the week after for the procedure and it also means that I have to stay in the hospital longer.

Currently everything is a waiting game even for my nutrient. The doctor ordered what is called "Total Parental Nutrient", i.e. nutrients that is infused directly into the blood but the order went out too late for the pharmacy to prepare the infusion over the weekend.

All these waiting also mean that my radiotherapy and chemotherapy are also postponed and I don't want that. I want to be able to go through the therapies in order to hit the tumor hard. Pray that I can have the procedure to open the bile duct on Monday.  If not, at least Tuesday and that the procedure will be successful and that there is no complication. Pray also that the liquid nutrients that I am drinking can be absorbed. Pray too for miracles and for God to be sovereign.

The Malaysian Gran Prix concluded today. My 2 favorite drivers are nowhere near the podium and what happened today between Sebastian Vettel and Mark Webber is one reason why I absolutely do not support Sebastian. He is too arrogant and thought only for himself regardless of the team.
