My family is important to me especially the one who raised me, my grandmother. Last week I thought that I'm gonna lose her already for the reason that she can't breathe. But before that one she's been suffering already from the pain from her stomach, upper abdomen. She said that it's painful and it's making her strength to fade away. She lose also her appetite and she's just eating very small. She said that when she eat, her stomach doesn't accept it and it's causing her to vomit.
She's in pain and as I see her facial expressions, it feels like I've been skinned alive, painful. All I can do for her is to look after her for the mean time. We've asked some old people here and they said that I'll boil some herbs to ease the pain and yes it helped but it doesn't go away permanently. They said to take it continously but I can't take that my grandma is suffering like that.
So I decided that it's time for her to see a doctor. When it comes to here I can drop everything for her that's why I monitored her closely. I can't take off my eyes from her or I can't stay long in social media. I monitored her condition until last September 6, tuesday when she said she can't breathe and her upper abdomen was really painful.
I called my father to bring her at the municipal health center in town. We arrived there in just 15 minutes because papa drove furiously for us to get there faster. We directly went to the frontdesk and those incharge there asked us how was she. I'm just a little bit disappointed at first because they're not attending to us and they are just talking with the other staffs. Not until I called their attention if there was somebody available.
Well maybe that's their state because the case was not that urgent but still they should be more attentive when it comes to their work. Granda had her lab and the result was she have an ulcer and uti but the doctor was wondering why the part that's hurting is the upper abdomen. Maybe her ulcer is the one making that.
All in all the doctor prescribed a lot of medecines for grandma. A total of six and we're lucky that they have stocks in there aside from the two antibiotics. We bought them from the pharmacy outside. She started her medication after dinner and she's still at it. She have four tablets to take of the two medicines until she complete it.
She's not used in drinking those bitter tablets but I'm strict so she had to. Well we can't afford to lose her or her body to become weak because my grandpa just died last April this month. We can't bear any pain anymore because still now we can't accept his death. Still it hurts.
Her medecines seems taking effect and making her better. Her appetite came back now and she already eats a lot. She can walk normally now also not like before that she's just like a child that needs some assistance. I thank God for He didn't let my gradma to lose her grip while facing her battle. Also thanks to sir @tpkidkai.
Aside from that one that made my week not so good, still I was able to published here with four articles. But the interaction was not that great and I will make up to it. If you missed them here they are.
Behind Thw Word Enemy There's Friendship.
In this one I tackled about the relationship of my cat and dogs which I thought that they will stay as enemy forever but I was wrong since they are ready friends with each other.
Ber Months Is Here But What Does It Mean To Us Filipinos.
This one was my entry for the first week challenge of Hiveph for this month of September. We are really into the first month of Ber months already and I can say that Christmas has already begun as I see some people hanging christmas lanterns on their houses plus christmas lights.
This one was my entry also to the prompt on Silver Bloggers about photos which holds memories. I featured there my mother and father. Photos really a treasure we must value because as time passes by we can't go back to those times again.
Meeting A Hero Who Live On The Street.
Lastly was my another entry to the Weekend prompt hosted by sir galen on Weekend Experiences. He gave a lot of choices and I chose the last one which the situation is having the chance to talk to someone from the list he gave. I chose the chance to have a talk with a homeless military veteran or a soldier. What's in there was the questions I wanna ask if I have the chance to meet one.
And that ends my blog today.
A reminder, no matter what happens enjoy life because it has so much to offer.
Thank you for reading this far.
