EVENTS HAPPENED ON JANUARY 25TH
Being stuck
in the hospital is a dragging situation for a week now and there is no sign yet
that it will be over anytime soon. I guess being inside the hospital starting
10 pm till 12 noon the following day babysitting mom is stressful enough, More
stressful in the sense is mom is not cooperating at all., As expected amang
rodriguez hospital is doing nothing in treating their patients and just gave
mom an oxygen tank bottle for her to breathe.
The whole
hospital area is littered with patients , even on walking spaces - the patients
are line-up outside in hospital beds , and on my perception the whole place
looks like a 21st century makeshift bomb shelter hospital bunker like you see
in the movies.
Another
week came by and it was still the same, It was mentally and physically grueling
being there , I only sleep roughly two hours each day and some of the days none
at all. It was a blessing that I bring along my tablet PC on the hospital to
keep me from getting bored to death on doing nothing during on my
"guard". Basically the public hospital hasn’t done anything
significant yet to medically treat mom , they just simply change her oxygen
bottle once in a while and that’s basically sums everything up for the whole
day.
Anyway I
don't expect much in a public hospital these days in the Philippines, Medical
care here as like in any third world country is extremely cruel and
self-serving. On top of that medical staffs like doctors and nurses, certainly
don’t live up to their names as being "life saver's" and believe it
or not they have total disregard for human (Filipino)lives - CAN YOU BELIEVE
THAT !??
Speaking of
which a few days ago, one of the nurses in the female ward apparently ripped me
off and stole a pack of medicines from me. Well she didn’t exactly
"grabbed" our stuff without permission , but what she did was tell me
to hand over our supply of medicines I had and said that since this is a
hospital ward, all medications must be first hand over to the nurse station -
for them to give to the patient. Being clueless on what was going on and that I
haven't been on the hospital in years now, I handed it over in good fate - the
whole medicine pack, not knowing what was going on. Two days later I found out
from my younger sister that they never gave my mom any of the meds I turned
over on the nurse station - NOT A SINGLE TABLET AT ALL, and it gets better when
I heard from my younger sister that nurses here in the public hospital often
steal meds from patients and profit from then by selling the meds they stole.
