The Surgery

It's been a week since my surgery. So far so good, no sign of another infection :)

Actually the surgery wasn't that bad. I was really scared when the doctors said that they had to open me up. I once read on the Internet about people who had surgery and their experience. They said that when they woke up after the surgery, they felt drained/ weak and it was very painful even to move a muscle. And it took a while to recover. So masa hari nak surgery tu, mmg tawakkal je la banyak2. I can't bear the pain anymore (I'll be crazy if I just took the painkillers).

But after the surgery, surprisingly, I didn't feel that bad. Just really drowsy. It felt like I have a cut on the belly, and it was hard to walk for a few days. One thing to mention, if you guys get sick and in recovery, don't miss a meal. Eat eat and eat, and drink lotsa milk. That's what I do, because I knew that I lost lotsa blood. And I feel much much better.

So here are some pics Amin took at the hospital.

My IV. I hate that machine. It kept beeping when I raised my arms, so I had to keep it straight. But can't do it when I was asleep. One night, it beeped 3-4 times. Crazy machine!

Kena solat atas katil. I missed solat before the surgery because I was drugged (with morphine) and it was too painful.

My bandaged belly.
