Had a scare...

Hospital Angkatan Tentera Tuaku Mizan

Early yesterday morning received a call from my mum at 5:00 a.m asking me to take my dad to the hospital. His prostate is acting up again and he have not been able to relieve himself properly. Quickly had a shower and did my prayers and took him to the Emergency at the Military Hospital Tuanku Mizan. After around 20 minutes they saw him and gave him a shot of Frusemide which is a muscle relaxant. Took time but finally he managed to relieve himself. We returned home and I went on to work. I thought that was that. At 11:00 a.m my wife called me saying that my mum (who is not well herself) is driving my dad to the hospital again because he is still feeling a lot of discomfort. First I am concerned that he is going to the hospital again and then because my mum is driving. My dad is 72 this year while my mum is 68 this year.

I quickly rushed to the hospital. When I arrived they had already fixed a catheter to my dad and he was not comfortable. We had lunch and then went to the Urology Unit in Hospital Kuala Lumpur for what he thought was his appointment. Apparently we were told his appointment is on 26 March and not 26 February and we were advised to keep the tube there for 2 weeks. I am not too pleased as the tube is just a temporary solution. I wanted a better solution. Since the tube was put in temporarily we had to return to Hospital Tuanku Mizan again to put a tube that is able to last for 2 weeks. It was almost 4:00 p.m by that time when I returned home.

I was still tinkering with my repeater set-up still not working effectively. When I got a little sleepy and went up to take a nap. I never did take my nap as I received a message from a former colleague of mine in a past life who told me that some of our colleagues in our working place has been suspended due to some poison pen letters or some malicious blog. Quickly I updated our Group and there was a frenzy exchange of indignant remarks. I will call one of the ex colleagues later today. For now I have a meeting to attend. I will just leave with what is prostate. I am taking this from wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prostate and Medline Plus http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/prostatediseases.html. 

I will add on later on how to prevent prostate diseases since I want to know myself.
