Tuesday August 18, 2009 my “Lolo” grandfather admits at St. Martin hospital in Noveleta, Cavite because he suffers from abdominal pain.
Wednesday he takes an x-ray examination and the doctors put hose on his nose for the air to come out on his maw.
Thursday the doctor schedule, him for a surgery but his haemoglobin is sunken so he need a blood transfusion. His blood type is A so it is not easy for us to find and buy a blood accordingly on his blood type and besides the doctor wants a fresh blood for him.
2:00 o ‘clock of the afternoon one of the nurse told as that they already found where we can buy a blood for our “lolo” and its on GEAM at Trece Martirez Cavite.
Therefore, we hurriedly go on the said blood bank and buy two bags of blood.
Around 4pm, we already at St. Martin vicinity and we took the blood directly at the laboratory. 7 pm the doctors arrive at the hospital, 7:15 pm the surgery started and successfully finished at around 10:45 pm. However, he transfers to the ICU at 1:25 am because of his unstable condition. Upon looking him on his condition that time, I cannot control my self but cry and it feels like my heart crushed. He cannot talk & recognized us that time; I did not leave him & sleep until 10:00 o clock of morning. 4 am when my grandfather talk & can recognized,
his dry cough contributes for his suffering every time he coughing his wounds prickled and consequently the doctor not gave him a high dosage of pain reliever because he can easily slumber and its complicated on his heart problem.
10 am, my other relatives come at the hospital to visit my “lolo” so I let them to take care and to be with my lolo therefore I go to sleep for a while.
My lolo stay 2 days at the ICU and he totally stay 11 days on that hospital.
On those eleven days my relative & I always visit him on our free time, after our work, the others every other day visit him.
Our family is close and very tie because of him; because he raises us close to each other and he want us to spend our Sunday & Christmas on their house.
So that’s why his six children, twenty grand children and nine great-grand children is still attached and very close to each other although grouch is imperative in one family but love & respect still remain.
Hence, this is not easy for us seeing him on his condition, yesterday he took again to the hospital because he had a deep sleep they cannot awake him until he arrives at the hospital he still sleeping.
The nurse said he had a blood pressure 60/40 that is why he cannot wake up.He admits at the hospital again, one of my oldest cousin said to let him go if that’s God’s will. Therefore, we did not witness his misery.
I’m afraid I can’t let him go I want him to witness my success in life, attend my wedding, see my children if it’s beautiful like me I want his compliments. Six years ago my dad’s past away and until now I’m desolating on him. Moreover, I do not think I can accept loosing someone again.
“Please help us to pray for the recovery of my grandfather.”
