Speedy Recovery, BC!

My friend's cat, BC, whom I look after whenever they go away for holidays, underwent a dental operation today. BC is pretty elderly, 17 years old and so his owner was extremely worried about the complications during operation due to BC's old age, existing health conditions, etc. Called my friend in the late afternoon and heard that the operation went well and the offending broken tooth was removed, in fact, quite a few rotten teeth were removed too. Gosh! No wonder, the poor boy kept having mouth infection. :( Now they are out of the way, BC should have less dental problems.
I am really happy that the operation went well. I wish BC a speedy recovery. :) Take care, BC. :)

Cataract Operation II

My father went for his 2nd cataract operation early this morning. The operation went smoothly and he was home by 10+ am. I only hope he remembers the instructions on what NOT to do after the operation.
There was so much drama at home before the operation lol. First, my father woke up late. He was supposed to be at the hospital at 6.40am for the pre-operation check. But at 6.10am, he was still at home. When walking out to get a cab, we realised he had forgotten to bring his appointment card so had to double back to get it. As we were running late, we tried to call for a cab but to no avail. In the end, the girls' father sent him to the hospital. I was already drained by all that "excitement" before the op. :P

Operation Success

My father had the cataract removed from his left eye at a 7.30am operation this morning. It was a success. He was able to return home around 11am. He has since been resting and sleeping. The girls thought he looked funny with the plastic eye patch over his left eye. "Ah Gong looks like a pirate, so funny", they said. My father will go back for his post-op check-up tomorrow.

Inevitable

Inevitable I
My father went to see the eye doctor at SGH. It is inevitable that he needed the cataract operation as soon as possible for he has delayed it for far too long. He will be going in for operation tomorrow morning!

Inevitable II
My grandmother-in-law slipped into a coma after being admitted into hospital yesterday. Today, she passed away in the late morning.
