Hospital Sultan Ismail

Was so tired.
I have a hectic weekend.
As you know, uncle was admitted to the hospital about a week ago.
He is suffering from cancer stage four.
Actually after the operation, he stayed with us for about four months and then he decided to go back to hometown to stay with grandma.
For the whole four months, he is recovering and he is very active.
He talks, he walks, he eats, he plays and he even can drive to buy things for himself as he told us that he is bored staying at home doing nothing.
But when he went back to hometown in Batu Pahat, Johor, he is getting weaker and weaker.
He refuse to eat and drink.
To make the matter worst, one of my grandaunty from Singapore, she come and visit uncle.
That old lady, she so and tell uncle that his cancer is stage four.
We try to hide from him and she easily say it out.
Since that day, uncle have no mood and apparently lost his appetite over anything and everything.
He no longer can walk and now he is relying on the wheel chair to move around.

He was admitted to the hospital and now, we found out that his cancer cell is spreading in his body.
His cancer cell spread into his bone and attack his T-bone and other bone. He have no bone there and that was the cause why he can't walk.
Doctor told us that everyday, it is a bonus day for him.
I get that doctor message and we are now mentally prepared.
Doctor said that he now still can talk,
But he can fall into coma suddenly and he will leave us anytime.
I feel so useless whenever I saw my mum's tears dripping.
I wanted to comfort her, but I can't as my tears are dripping too.

Mum decides to go to Johor Bahru to visit uncle as he calls and begs us to go and visit us.
He said that he wants to see all of us before he leave us.
Saturday, after mum came back from her office, we pack and we make a move at around 3:30pm.
On the way, we have to stop by BP to fetch grandma up as she wants to visit her son too.
After so long journey, we fially reached JB and it tooks us about 6 hours plus.
We reached the hospital at about 9:45pm and because it is government hospital, they are very strict.
The visiting hours are like from 12:30pm till 2pm and from 4pm till 7pm.
When we reached there, we have to give 100 reasons to the security just to go in and visit uncle.
The security then allow us to go but only gives us 10minutes.
Well, of course we stayed more than 10 minutes and you know what happened?
That stupid malay security guard came in and scolded us, she told us times up. We begged for a little while more, this inconsiderate people just scolded us and off the room light and ask us out.
We wanted to scold her as uncle is staying in a VIP room and is a private room.
But we didn't afraid that she will do something harms uncle.

We then check-in hotel in Mutiara Hotel (formally known as Holiday Inn hotel).
Dad booked two rooms previously and we went up to rest for a while before we go for dinner.
We have our dinner at 11:45pm. I guess it is supper more than dinner.
But well, we are having seafood, it is satisfying after all.
Go back to the hotel room with bloated tummy, shower, rest, play and then at 3am, I fall asleep on the bed that I share with my sister. My grandma was in the next bed in the same room as me while my parent was in the next room.

At 10am, the next morning, all of us awake and shower and we get ready, go for breakfast and meet up with aunties from JB.
Luckily the hotel let us extend out check-out time till 3pm so that we are not that rushing.
We went to the hospital after breakfast and visit uncle.
We then went straight to the hotel and pack our belongings and check out.
We leave JB at about 3:15pm and we reached BP at 4:30pm.
Rest for a while in grandpa house, then we make a move back to KL at around 7:00pm.
Dad was speeding all the way and finally, we reached KL at 9:45pm.

I was so tired and restless.
All of us went to bed after shower.
I woke up today at 11:45am.
Still feel tired. But I have to help my mum to do some things.
