Cheerful moment

Ahhh....it's good to be home, once again after hours of stay in the hospital. It's 9 pm now and still can't register what I did today. All I know is that I have been concentrating doing things for my brother.

Initially, I plan to stay at home in the morning to get some stuff done. Then, dad needed me to be there at the ward and pass him something. I was looking forward spending the time in the morning digesting my own errands. Anyway, I left the house right away after getting dad's call and reached there in time for him to have money to pay for the immigration officer to issue Aaron's new passport later in the day.Actually, dad just stopped by at the KK imigration office to ask if Aaron could have his passport made without having to be physically there in the office. Dad was then nicely assisted by two officers who willing to see Aaron's for thumbprint. (5 years = RM 300)I was really shock to see officers wearing a black jacket in the ward.

For the rest of the day, I was with CP and spend the noon time at Servey Likas supermarket buying stationaries and materials. They were for Aaron's birthday tomorrow.After we had lunch at home, we made the decorations ( Happy Birthday wordings cut out from cardboard)in two hours. I say we did a good job and the wordings were nicely hung on the curtain rail, further above Aaron's bed. The atmosphere of the ward changed to a cheerful ambience and really makes everything look different...at least one doesn't feel the sorrow and silence. Aaron was really surprised and speechless seeing us putting up the decoration. Recalling the moment, he is going to have a special birthday celebration in the hospital which I don't think it's common to do among us. I left a bowl of chocolates on the table and they are for grabs for whoever come by Aaron's ward...hehe.

I am really happy to see Aaron today. He is not on oxygen ventilator now but he is still attached to an oxygen aid (the one you see tubes with two outlet attached right under the nostrils). He is much more livelier than yesterday and in fact had such a great appetite that he just gobbled down the pasta I cooked as his dinner. Just the sight of seeing him eating and appreciating every single bite of it made my heart leaps in joy. For the first time, I actually watched and stared at someone enjoying their food. When I looked at him, that moment seem to stop for me...

=D

The doctor is still finding out the causes of his jaundice. The nurse will do blood test from him tomorrow and have the sample send to private lab to check for Hepatitis A or B, which might be one of the reasons for jaundice. His body is really yellowish compare to the days before ( I wonder if I should name him Avarish --Avatar in yellow lol). Over a couple of days, the doctor might move him to the normal ward as he is recovering well.
