Days 1-3

Hi guys! I'm finally back from that hell hole called SGH. Irritating nurses who didn't know wth they were doing or supposed to do for me. They completely made it seem normal when my nose was bleeding like i had a endless supply of blood in my body. Honestly other than a selected few everyone else sucked. I went into surgerat like 8 am on wednesday morning and i seriously did not know how to feel. My dd wasn't there on time. I was so scared that i'll end up going in without seeing anyone i love. You know, it's this general fear. So yeah. I had this Grey's Anatomy kinda Operating Theatre and it was full with staff. 7 doctors and even more nurses plus patient care assistants who lifted me here and there. And i remember some music being played as well. They actually have a boom box in there. My worst experience throughout was probably the General Anasthesia. I have never felt anything so, uncomfortable/ painful/ numbing etc. It was like sinking into nothingness if theres even such a thing. The moment they switched the gas on, i remember fighting to be awake. Which was of cours pointless. Trying to be heroic. Totally didn't work. So the moment the gas came on it was like my whole body was on fire. And it felt like a seizure. I was totally unprepared for it. Totally. Next thing i knew, i was stirring at the recovery centre with a damn fever and in a LOT of discomfort. After they brought me to the ward things got a little better. Saw all the people i wanted to. Oh well, that's the most exciting thing that's happened since i regained my conciousness. The rest of the journey, has yet to come. I'm still Ensuring* as Reka puts it. I'll be on it for a week or so until my appointment with my head surgeon. Hopefully the bands come off. To all those of you who came to see me, i can't tell you guys how much better you made me feel despite the fact that i can't talk. I actually managed to laugh! All the presents you got me, Thank you so so much. To Arch who's been checking up on me daily, I love you and i miss you. Hurry home! Murale and Reka, i could have never gotten through those 3 days without you two. To my family, forever grateful and i couldn't mean it more. Rev, Rekha, Prema, Nimala, Van and Shanthini, Thank you thank you thank you. Your presence adnd presents were a joy! I'll update tmr cause i gotta get back to self feeding now.
LoveLots,
Ragini(:
