Warded in TTSH: Day 20

Another day passes. I'm in a six-bedded cubicle and saw 4 of the beds got discharged today. Anyway, the Consultant came around today, took one look at the bag on my side and just said "Hey, have to suture". Asked me if I wanted to stay for one more day and I said yes because I got no idea how the suture will hold up. Had the suturing done at about 11:00am and just as well that I stay because despite the suturing, it still oozes and had to have the dressing changed twice. You might be wondering why not use the bag again but the doctor says to allow the opening to close up with pressure bandage. Now I'm not sure if I am discharged tomorrow, how will I cope with the dressing if I have to go to the Polyclinic to have the dressing changed more than once a day.

Pray that the wound will close up and dry up.
