GEWR 2017

Cuzzies conquered yet another run..! Beautiful cloudy skies sheltered our sweet sweet run. The rain catch up on us so we seek refuge over great kopi talk! H.A.P.P.Y #cousins❤️ #lindarunlikecrazy #GEWR2017

Movie date

Despite feeling blue with a wee bit of stomach flu, they confirmed they had no fever and ready for a movie date. I believe its my first time ever to be with a cloque of mummies rather than my own cuzzies. They enjoyed themselves tremendously ... Masha'Allah

Mama says visiting hours whole day! Syidah help to buy dressing supplies with Mama & C Arah. Nenek gets weekly nurse visit and monthly doctor visit.

Nenek's care - Dah boleh balik!

So for now, we come to the decision that nenek will be at rumah illa (my mom) for the moment. This will be where nenek will have good initial supervision on her wound care and the nurses already noted the address so it will make admin matters easier. Her ic address is rumah sini so all her incoming letters and hospital stuff will be related to this address. We will discuss again after this house, where will be the next best solution. We already have a few options in mind for nenek. In sha Allah nenek can and will have her own place in sg in the near future. We will try to make that arrangement be as soon as possible. So for now semua jangan risau, kita in sha Allah mampu dan boleh jaga nenek to the best of our ability. More updates to come but for now we say alhamdulillah nenek is back home. Her fight with bacteria is also in good shape. She came in with a bacteria count in the hundreds and now she has dropped in the tens. So that's why they can allow nenek to be discharged. She is responding well to the medication. 👍🏻

Weekend fun

Nenek's care

Nenek's MRI result is negative for bone infection. Alhamdulillah

This means she can be discharged after 2 weeks of antibiotics, Augmentine.

Nenek's care

..Hafiz Updates.
Nenek to go for 2nd MRI tom 31 oct tue. Time not confirmed, prob 9am - 5pm slot. Nenek will be under some sedation to make her sleep during MRI , so she won't move about .

Nenek ever since she got better, means she know can feel the pain more on her wounds.
So know it's a bit more difficult when cleaning her wounds because she will move and be unhappy. It's a balance that we have to face. If nenek feels better physically, means her senses is coming back to normal, means she gets upset easier.
So we try to maintain her weight and makes sure she eats and drinks even when she initially does not.

The docs says , if the results of the MRI shows no bone infection, she will then just be on augmentin till mon, 05 nov 17 and will be released to go home.

Nenek a bit moody la so far, so if u guys come later and see her, don't be alarmed. It's just her actually feeling the pain from her wounds.

Nenek's care

This is Nenek smiling.. Masha'Allah

[29/10, 10:46 AM] Hafiz Bro: 

She is better with each day...

First thing when she sees me

[29/10, 10:49 AM] Hafiz Bro: 

Me: nenek tengok Gigi, hafiz nak cuci
Nenek: eh takmu Gigi dah berterabur...藍
[29/10, 10:53 AM] Hafiz Bro: 

Nenek: hafiz. Hafiz..
Me: ah apa nek.
Nenek: kasi tau Cik Jaapar, besok dia nak kerja.
Me: ok....

Backstory: yesterday Cik jappar was here and he was offered a job after so long. Nenek memang banyak baraqah. Doa orang yang tua/sakit memang mustajab. It's like a direct line. 

[29/10, 11:36 AM] Hafiz Bro: 

Nenek: mumbling
Me: Ada apa nek.
Nenek: bilang Cik aim.
Me : bilang apa nek
Nenek: bilang Cik aim. Dia cakap kalau Ada apa2 bilang Cik aim... (in full)
me: ah ok nek.

She speaks in full. Mentioning mat shah, Hadirah and many others la.
We take that her memory is progressing.

She ask to call 4425449 and at that moment Cik Jah is waiting downstairs.

Updates

29 oct 17
Dr tan deshawn.
Pic line insertion will be postponed after MRI scan.
Prof ragu wants the MRI to be done to confirm weather or not nenek indeed has bone infection. If yes, then they will put the pic line insertion to last 4 weeks of stronger anti biotics.
Only then, the docs will allow her to transfer to parkway east hospital.

If MRI results in negative ( no bone infection)

if no bone infection, then the current augmentin is enough for 2 weeks dosage and nenek is already on her 6th day (she is halfway ) thru.
Signs are positive , her blood count after yesterday transfusion, nenek got back up to 10.1. Which is her baseline.
Her wounds are manageable with no leaking or continues blood pouring .
MRI due possibly tue morning-afternoon

Day3 By Hafiz 27Oct2017 11.50am :

..She's recovering so well. I'm suprised. She spoke in full sentences today and with clarity.
That hasn't happened for a long time.
She says to wina.
"Nanti nak beli Baju kurung"
Wina : oh iya nek
" nak baju color hitam"
Wina : ok nek.

Me: nanti makan nasi eh nek
Nenek: mana Ada nasi
Me: ni Ada nasi curry ikan ni. Cik Jah masak.
Nenek: nods.

While at MRI

Nenek: aku dah tua, tak payahla.

Nenek: jangan Ang kat kaki aku, nanti patah...


So all good signs la. She remembers more and is sharper.

But during the MRI, she moved too much so the test was inconclusive.
She might have to go again next week if she has a slot.

Blood culture results are back though. She confirms has these 2 blood bacterias : E. coli and proteus.

Doctors giving her anti biotics ( augmentin ) and so far she is responding well to the meds and not developing fever.
Nenek is like super strong la. I'm not sure of anyone that can go thru this pain without even mincing.

So it's jumaah today. Let's make doa for neneks recovery and hopefully we can bring her home.
Despite the good signs, nenek is fragile. She is can get very sick very fast if she develops fever. So we doa that won't happen.

It could be anytime, maybe next month,maybe next week if she suddenly has high fever, the bacteria may have spread and overcome her. But so far her signs are ok. No fever at the moment just low blood pressure .

From the dietician/nutritionist , she lost a lot of weight cause during all these years, she hasn't had enough calorie to meet her baseline ( just to meet her req calorie intake for a person her weight)

Nenek's care

Day 1, Nenek wakes up to a good start. A fresh colour on her face and great alertness.

We have 2 priorities 1.Dietician Team & 2.Wound Team She will be on long term anti-biotics.

Her bed sore is a gaping wound, now on both sides of her pelvis. She also have a hip fracture. Blood test is still ongoing. Her XRay shows no infection on her affected bones however the Wound team is doubting this. An MRI scan would help determine. May Allah lessen her burden.
