Surgery tomorrow

with 5 comments

To all concerned:

I’m due for a surgical procedure, tonsillectomy, tomorrow at the Singapore General Hospital (SGH).

For those who are curious what a tonsillectomy is, please refer below:

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A tonsillectomy is a surgical procedure in which the tonsils are removed. Sometimes the adenoids are removed at the same time.”

Admission is at 7AM in the morning, followed by the operation at 8AM (estimated timing).

In my 25 years so far, I was fortunate to not have been admitted before. Truth to be told, I am quite scared at the thought of staying in the hospital (with so much hospital-related horror stories going around, who wouldn’t?). But, since this can’t be delayed any longer, I suppose I don’t have much of a choice anymore.

Oh well.

A scary, scary Halloween!

with 4 comments

Tis’ the season to be scary, falalalala lalalala.

Opps. It’s Halloween, not Christmas yet!

My scary Halloween certainly started bright and early today at SGH for my pre-admission procedure.

Yep, I’m scheduled for surgery late next week.

I do not like needles, and am growing to detest them more as I become older.

Today’s hospital experience has just confirmed that fact. I could really feel that needle as it made its entry through my skin and seeked for its holy grail – my blood.

Argh!

Anyway, have a frightfully fun Halloween!

I’ll be at my SVP’s house as she’s throwing a Halloween party, what about you?
