4 a.m.
co-assistant's room.
knock. knock.
'i hope it's just a ghost like earlier before. please let it be a ghost.'
before, at about 2.30 am i heard a very subtle knock (since i slept on
the bed nearest to the door). there's nobody outside. the knock was so
soft it's not like coming from a human being.
knock! knock! knock!
'yes..' i answered.
a student nurse peeked in, 'there's a new patient in ER.'
by now i officially admit that receiving a new patient in the middle of
the sleep time is scarier than being disturbed by a ghost. hands down.
receiving a new patient means that there's a new patient waiting in the
emergency room. to be treated (and sent up to the patient room), he
will need: one doctor, who will need one co-assistant (that's us) to be
someone he can give orders to. and that co-assistant will need: one
stethoscope, one sphygmo, and one discount 30% off of the sleeping
time. oh and a writing pen (i forgot to bring one last night and got
embarrassed in front of the ER staff by the doctor).
after checking the patient, we'll wait til they brought the patient to
patient's room. when they got there, the patient will be examined again
by us, accompanying the doctor. administrations, filling the medical
records, writing the receipts and further examinations, etc etc. it's
about two hours before all got done.
now when there's a knock in 3 or 4 am, who will you choose to be the
knocker, a ghost or a student nurse telling there's a new patient
waiting in the ER?
apparently this blog is still alive? i thought it might get erased. too long since my last post. ha ha ha.
well well... i am writing something... it's (planned to be) titled: One Set To Love. as in "Game. Federer wins one set to love".
okay i'm not writing this post heartily. forget it. and sorry. nite2.
