Mom and I went to Centennial hospital again. at 8:00am!!!
8:00am!!! That is early for me as I havn't actual get up that early after resignation.
We arrived the register desk and Mom showed that she was a bit nervous. She prepared to have blood test, measure blood pressure... etc etc. End up, she got changed and went into a room to do ultra-sound for 20 mins. Haahahaa! She kept saying "it was a waste for me NOT to have my breakfast...."
I prepared the bread with peanut butter with jam. (It is my favourite that I just can't think of what else Mom would eat)
We finished around 9:00am, we went down to Chemo centre and checked if we could rearrange the "pre-clinic session" from 11:30am to earlier. Unfortunately, the nurses were so busy. Mom agreed to stay in the hospital until then. We decided to stay in that "bad tasty" Country style until 11:30am. Then Dr. Wong's receptionist came down to get Coffee, and Mom was so happy to talk to her. (Thank you, Jenny)
Jenny went back to Dr. Wong's office and Mom started to knitting. Almost 11:00am, I really feel tired with my period pain... and I suggested to mom, I wanted to sit somewhere more comfy. I decided to brought the things back with mom and rest in the car for 5-10 mins.
We turned on the heat a bit so Mom won't felt cold. (Actually, Mom felt much warmer than me. She has a healthier body than me. (If you remembered, mom used to wear a wool sweater underneath with summer wears during WINTER TIME).
However, that 5-10 minutes felt much better.... Mom closed her eyes to rest abit.
We went to Chemo Centre, registered, and I felt so uncomfortable again. When we were waiting for the nurse, Pharmacist came to us and dropped down all mom's drug list. I felt so dizzy and asked if he could give me a pain kill (of coz I know he can't. at least I should try) Anyway, it was so hard for me to answer all his questions and mom and I went back to the reception area. I could felt that I was so pale. Mom looked at me and passed me her wallet and asked me to get the medicine (That is why I love my mom so much. She is just so innocent. By looking at me, she just thinks I am ok next minute. But tell you the truth, I couldn't even focus that moment)
When I took her $20, and ready to go to shopper, but that time, I knew I couldn't walk out of the Centre. I turned around and looked at mom, "Mom, I think I want to throw up, I better head to the washroom than the Shopper..." I went to washroom and looked at my pale face. "Oh, my... "... I had to breath deeply. deeply.
Mom knocked at the washroom door, and asked me to come out. Bcoz she was afraid that no one could save me. I managed to come out at the same time, the nurse came to see Mom.
Nurse asked, "Mrs. Wong?" (yeah, my mom uses her maiden name)
Mom handed up, "I am here". Then the nurse looked at me, "who are you?"
I said to nurse, "I am her daughter, translator supposed to be, but I think I am fainting..."
Then the next thing I remembered the nurse got me the wheelchair, I sat on it and it went really fast to the bed, however, I was on the bed with mom beside me. At that moment, I didn't know who was the patient.
When mom was sitting beside my bed, asked me if I was ok. One side, I felt bad... that end up I was the one on the bed, on the other side, "haaha!" She was not that focusing on her condition. Good Good! hahaah!
Anyway, after 15mins, I was awake and back to the normal me. Ka Ka Ka... But mom told me that Dr. Wong walked by and surprised that I was on the bed... Nurse told him she was so confused that she didn't know who was her patients anymore....
ha ha ha... Yeah... that was our days.
Here was the picture Mom took for me. Don't laugh...
