Geram jangan engkau geram

My dad rang me while i was seeing clients for my research yesterday. He told me that mak has some swelling on her foot and the specialist they went and see said it's muscle inflammation and suh pi urut je. So he was panicking seperti selalu and asked me to bawak mak pi jumpa expert at my workplace B. Seperti biasa, when dealing with my dad, health wise, i usually switch on my consultant mode.

-So what was the diagnosis? 'Dr cakap muscle inflammation. Entahlah!'
-What's the aetiology? 'Tak taule..'
-Bapak tak tanya dr ke? 'I was not in the room..Mak je'
-Laa...dah tau mak jenis camtu yg tak bertanya, apsal bapak tak pergi sama mak? (tapi kalau kitaorg yg bawak, pandai lak suh kitaorg masuk sama dgn mak ke bilik dr)
-OK, why not you go to Dr X (our family dr), get her diagnosed and ask him to refer to appropriate dept. Kalau nak suh i refer also, i don't know what is wrong with her foot. 'i think she needs to be seen by a neurologist'
-How do you know? Like i said, bawak dulu pi jumpa Dr X and get her properly diagnosed dulu. Then you decide nak bawak pi private hosp or the tentera punya specialist. I think tak payah la bawak sini...mak nak datang sini for rv pun malas, unless if you want 2nd opinion.'i think orthpopedic pun OK gak'

Last2 dgn nada cam dokotor gomen yg sibuk yg set2 takde bedside manners, i had to tell him, look, go take her to Dr. X, come back with the diagnosis, then we'll discuss about it. Selalu buat cite camni. When my mum had a heart attack, he went round like a headless chicken. Nak merintih2 and sekejap2 called to tell me yg mak sesak nafas la etc. He should be the pillar of strength but dia pulak yg lost it. While waiting to be treated at IJN, biasalakan when people with heart capacity yg dah tak 100%, selalu la rasa mengah. My dad made her take the GTN (ubat bawah lidah) macam kacang putih OK? Belum seminggu ubat dah tinggal separuh botol. After certain point, i had to tell him to get a grip of himself. Tak tau la nak kata whether dia takut if my mum were to die then dia tinggal sensorang or the fact that selama ni dia yg selalu sakit and now the role has been reversed and at the propect of having to look after my mum pulak. Hish!

I mean i'm terribly busy...so benda2 yg remeh temeh kena tolak ke tepi sekarang. Badan tak nampak busy tapi otak preoccupied semedang and cam loyar sabung ayam cakap, jiwa kacau. Pas tu ada la pulak my desperate hoswipe nak pi meminang anak dara org. Bendanya tinggal kurang dari sebulan lagi and baru ada hati nak cakap that she wants everyone pakai sedondon and laki2 kena pakai baju melayu. hati dah nak panas ni..udah le pilih kaler yg tak masuk book langsung. so i said to her nicely..i cakap at this last minute, i think it's a bit unfair you nak suh org pakai itu ini. Nak pi tempah pun tak sempat dah (i cuma tingat diri i le ni). Dia kata, tak yah buat baju baru, dia pun pakai baju lama. Mulut ni macam nak kata yg dia baju lama pun, baju tu pi pakai ong kawin je because dia hoswipe. Baju i pi bawak kerja, tak best la nak jadikan baju majlis...majlis yg gempak lak tu. Then i told her, napa laki kena pakai baju melayu? Sia2 i baru beli batik kelantan utk my dad (my dad jadi tok dalang nanti). I said, bapak mana ada baju melayu. Dia cakap takpe, suh bapak datang KL awal, nanti kita pergi beli. samping no worries, diaorg banyak. I said to her, anak dia kawin pun dia tak pakai baju melayu bersamping semua, ni pulak setakat nak pi meminang je! Ceh! And then the cousin macam nak sulk pulak...OK la kalau bapak taknak pakai..nanti kang dia sorang je yg lain. I said, he doesn't give two hoots la! I rasa cam nak cakap, yg dlm entourage tu nanti cuma 10 orang, kalau semua2 pakai baju ala2 sama kaler, tak ke cam kumpulan marhaban je or worse boria sg pinang. lain le kalau time wedding, ada org2 lain lagi so it helps if the family members were to dress sekaler.

Hish! Boleh tak jgn bebani jiwa kacau i dgn perkara remeh temeh camni. Bukannya nak pi minang anak raja...on most days, kalau i boleh synchronise what i wear pun dah cukup bagus. Ni ha buktinya satu hari di tempat kerja.



So??
