Just watch your back Sweetie

I'm posting this post from Ipoh. That's right. I had to take EL even though I have yet to get my entitlement for annual leave. For one reason and one reason only. Family comes first. It begins with such a beautiful start in the morning....

Hubby turns 3-0 yesterday and we had planned to have family dinner. Since I'll be attending orientation and training I can get off work early. But one phone call from my mom changed everything! My dad was warded to CH hospital. For your information my dad has been in and out hospitals for his heart condition. Nothing serious. Just a mild heart attack and few days of bed rest and medication. So neither mom nor my sister who was with him expected anything worse could happen.

Now, my mom is in KL for a convention. And she is still waiting for her relocation to CH. So she is still in Jengka whilst my sister is accompanying my dad in CH. Since we did not expect anything serious, my mom decided to visit him on the weekends. Unfortunately, sister informed me, CH had decided to send dad to GH in Ipoh because his condition just got worse.

At this point, my mom was already having a panic attack. This is her other half we're talking about. Dad went to the CH hospital for a his cough but ended up with severe heart attack. What the he**???!!!! He was only having the usual mild attack and ended up in an ambulance to see a specialist!! To make things worse, my sister was unable to get hold of my mom and she got yelled for not informing mom immediately.

I called my supervisor and informed her that I'll heading to Ipoh and won't be coming to work. Bless her angel soul! Picked up my brother so he'll take mom's car from the hotel. Got my mom and went straight to Ipoh. Arrived in the middle of the night. Dad was sound asleep. Got ourselves checked-in into a nearby hotel and rest for the night.

And today my mom got the whole story from yesterday. The truth was the nurses and doctors in CH has given my dad not only the wrong medication, but an overdose as well!!!! He had rashes all over his body. Body temperature went down and he was shivering. Thank God for their immediate decision to send to a specialist even though with being such an idiot for not listening to my dad in the first place! Ipoh's doctor immediately recognise his condition as allergic reaction instead of the severe heart attack as written on his report. My mom is planning to sue the hospital for malpractice! But she got mellowed. Instead she just wanted to give them a piece of her mind. As of now, Ipoh's doctor is planning to inform IJN to schedule for dad's triple bypass soon.

Thank you for everyone who has helped my family when needed! As for those people who are resposible for sending my dad off for a lousy trip down the hill, watch your back, Sweeties!! Because mom is coming to town!!
