The 8th Day at the Hospital

After almost a month my mom kept complaining about her stomachache and went back and forth to her internist, swallowed many kinds of medicines and ended up for no changes. Finally, we forced her to go to RSPI and did the endoscopy in order to find out what exactly the causes of her stomachache and we were really in big shock after finding out that there was a tumor in my mom's colon and it had to be operated very soon.

Dear God, we never thought that this scary things could happen. After got this shocking news, we still had to inform mom about her sickness. We agreed not to tell mom to whole truth, we were afraid she would get stressed and it would effect to her health. We just informed her that she had a small tumor and to avoid its spreading to the other organs of her body, mom had to go through the operation. At first, she felt a bit awkward, but after persuading her, finally (thank God) she agreed to have the surgery.

Finally, last Friday, at 08.30 a.m, mom had her surgery to take its tumor out of her colon. The surgery took almost 2 hours and it run good enough. My mom stayed in ICU for a day, thank God, the next day, her condition got better and she could return to her room.

Today is the 8th day of my mom being hospitalized, she is getting better, still a bit weak but as a whole her progress is very good for a-64-year-old-mother. We are really grateful for all, wishing good health for my mom, hope she could go home and get together with all the family members very soon, amiiiiiiin....... We miss you, mom!!!!!
