Mummy's Eye Operation

Hey, today has been an eventful day... woke up late for Music Camp and ended up getting a lift to church. yay! ahah but anyways... nearing the end of the camp, i received comfirmed news that my mum had to have surgery today...

K, this is the background *insert smokey smoke here as we flashback*
3 plus days ago, my mum complained to me about her vision. she said that at the bottom right corner of her left eye, there was this patch that hinders her vision. At fist it was only when she changed focus from near objects to far.. but as the days went by, she said that it was getting constantly in the "way"... so we did some research and the stuff on the net said to get help immediately... to get it consulted wif a Eye Specialist la... so my nagging finally paid off and she decided to see an Eye Doctor today...

Apparently, it was quite bad... almost
*if you do not wish to hear details about my mum's eye, please move on to the next paragraph. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.*
almost half of her retina was torn or well, displaced la.. coz the whole thing is called Displace Retina... and so they had to patch it back and all. :S Yeh, so they managed to and the op was a success...

The thankful thing was that the Doc said that they might have to pump gas into the eye and the gas had to be kept upright or sumthing like that, that means she had to lie face flat for the whole day... wah.. that's nuts la.. can you imagine?!?! goodness. thankfully there wasn't a need to and she can be in any posture now.

Yup. so overall, it was a very successful op... the nurses and docs were very helpful and kind.. a nurse called home jus now to check on my mum... Nurse Aw!!! i shall make special mention to her coz she was so helpful in the hospital and even followed up on my mum.. whether it's part of her job or not, the thing is that she did. and that's all that matters... so touching...

yeh, here are some photos of today. :) Went to National Eye Centre... SNEC... :) And that's Pirate Mummy... you know how they always say One-Eyed-Jack... well, she's One-Eyed-Jen. :) hahaha

thanks to all who prayed, listened and thought of my mum today. In no special Order...
