Dad's operation today

This morning when we visited him, he was very tired. So, we just spent the time talking to the nurses and letting him rest. Before we left, we just said a short prayer to him and then, told him to rest more as he will be going for his operation today. His jaw is broken into 3 portions and his broken some small bones around his eyes. So, it will be a plastic surgery today at 4pm. So we left the hospital earlier since dad is sleeping.

So, we went home at about 10am and me and mum started preparing lunch. We will be cooking curry chicken today. Yummy. I was also playing computer game-Sims 2. Bro brought over from Singapore for me to play in case I will get bored. Gek Teng came over to visit us and we spent some time playing Sims 2 as we see Pam and my bro creating their families in the computer game. They were trying to create themselves in the computer game to make it more realistic as the game allows you to change facial features in detailed.

Gek Teng went home when we were going to have lunch as she has already cooked lunch at home. We had a nice lunch- curry chicken with potatoes and tau kwa, kai lan with pork, french loaf and rice. I packed today's lunch for CT's lunch tomorrow. After lunch, I just spent the time playing my computer game and watching TV.

There were a lot of calls I had to answer, especially one call from Prof Tan Ser Kiat. He is the CEO of SingHealth, my mum's good friend. We have asked him to arrange a place for my dad and a doctor to oversee him when my dad goes back to Singapore. He has been a great help given his expertise as he is also an orthoped surgeon.

CT came home at about 6pm and he told us that tonight's dinner will be delivered by his colleague. His colleague will be sending us dinner. At about 6 plus, his colleague delivered sweet and sour fish and veggies. Very yummy. It was the whole fried fish. My bro enjoyed it very much, sucking and eating every part. Take a look at the picture.

After a filling dinner, we went to visit dad as he should have finished his surgery. But when we went there, the nurse told us that he went into surgery at only 7pm as the surgeons had to attend to emergency cases. The nurse also told us that it will take a couple of hours and after that, he will be sedated. So, we thought we left and visit him tomorrow. So, we thought it was a good time to go grocery shopping since it was still early and we were running out of suppplies. We went to a Christian bookshop first. It was a nice shop with a lot of stuff. I got a father's dad present from there. Bought him a book to encourage him. After that, went Walmart for grocery shopping. Bought a lot of stuff. It seems as if my family is staying here forever from the things they bought! :) So, today, not much of visiting. The nurse called us after his operation and told us that everything went well. There should not be anymore operations already. So, have to just wait for his condition to stabilise, then he will fly back to Singapore.
