Just got discharged from NUH yesterday after a 10 day stay. Developed high fever on 19/7 and was admitted in the wee hours of 20/7. All because of a pressure sore on my left foot that caused an infection hence the fever. So I had to be warded for observation.

It's been 10 years since I was last warded for the same problem. I think the infection was more serious this time. Underwent a minor op to clear up the wound. And I still need to go back for outpatient treatment for the next few days and on Wed and Sat for the subsequent weeks. Cos I need antibiotic jabs for one month to fully recover. So they inserted a line on my right arm so that Mummy can administer the medication at home for the following month. Now I must learn to use my left hand cos it's tough to bend my right arm with that stupid thing. Need to be very careful to avoid complications. Haiz.

And I'm on MC until 4/8 so I need to defer my Cost Accounting test till next week. Also need to go back for makeup classes as I missed the last 2 lessons while I was warded.

Nothing much to say about my hospitalisation as it was super boring. It was a good excuse to slack and be pampered by Mummy who stayed with me throughout the whole 'ordeal' but it got boring soon cos there was no TV as I stayed in a B2 class ward due to financial constraint. Luckily I brought my discman and radio. So most of the time was spent sleeping or reading when the nurses didn't disturb me.

Actually I have a lot to say but I guess the medication is making me tired and I can't think properly. I'll just end this entry by thanking those who visited me in hospital: Mummy's cousins Uncle Kong and Uncle George and my Cedar pals Cloud and MS.

P/S: I won't be online much for the next month cos I need to rest and recharge my batteries. So pls pardon me if I rarely update my blog or reply emails.
