1st Day Post Surgery




It was a fantastic dawn I’d like to say…. That angel (nurse) helped me to wash my face, wipe off the tears and pus from eyes, rinse my mouth with cold water (I shocked to see, black colored water coming out from my mouth), combed my hair parted that as two and plaited that then tied with bandage, changed my bedding, She was having a nice smile whenever she looks at me…. I loved her smile and her dedication… wish to see her again but I don’t know her name then how??????

I have been shifted to room 644 soon after my surgeon’s (Dr. Oommen) visit…. He visited me there at post operation ward…. I was boring there, desperate,counting minutes and thinking when I shall shift to ward…..  My surgeon’s face consoled me a lot…. A familiar and friendly face in an unfriendly world!!!!  He said Sherin, now you will be shifted to room….. Now you are fine… nothing to worry!!! Catheter will be removed tomorrow.... Now we could stop this drip also.. I wondered will i able to take food with this broken mouth??? i asked the same with him... He smiled and that smile was really encouraging then said, Liquids first, then you could move on to soft solid foods.. And a lot of pleasant words… he explained about his beginning of career as a doctor, his patients, salary and the place where he started his career…. It was really interesting and i wish to hear him more but they shifted me without giving time to listen that fully…..:(


I was wheeled to my room. My mom and sister were in the room and as soon as the nurse got me settled in I hugged my mom and sister so tightly. I wasn't in that much pain or anything, I just think there were so many emotions going through me all at once.


Room no 644, heaven as compared with general ward…mmmm my next 2 days paradise I thought. I asked mom for a mirror to see my pumpkin face!!!! Yeah, it was far far better than what I expected but my eyebrows…. Half of the left eye brow is missing!!! Then I found some sticky plaster gum on forehead and right eyebrow…. Oh they have removed my eyebrow along with that plaster!!!!! Soooo saaadddddd!!!! Hmmmmmm

Afternoon Dr. Suvy Manuel came for a checkup!!! He introduced himself to us…. Oh my Mahesh Babu!!! but he’s not looking like that now!!!! What’s the difference??? I wondered hmmm… oh yeah gotchaaa……he is having mustache now and without that only he got that look!!!! In the mean time he have given a lot of advises like take one glass water in every one hour… you should consume cold water only… use baby brush for brushing…. Wash your mouth each and every time after food….. Rinse off with cold water….. Don’t apply any kinda pressure on teeth… catheter should be removed and that nurse will do that tomorrow morning…. Etc etc etc…. but I wish to tell him please remove that mustache, without that you look like Mahesh Babu…. He is soooo handsome you know…..!!!!!!!
