i am always against going through the surgery for the correction of my spine curvature. Guess i dun have much choice now since the condition has worsen over my years working as radiographer. Yes, it is rather unfair to put the blame on the job nature as along the way, i must admit my age is catching up, there are also mechanical wear and tears such as degenerative conditions subjected to aging.

Sometimes, i do wonder why i was accepted to this job when i have a such condition. No one expected that my condition would deteriorate over the years. To all out there, if you have scoliosis, please choose your career carefully. Even if the condition is well maintained, dun ever take the risk as we do not know what is installed for us. Actually, for many health care workers, we often end up with lots of spine degenerative conditions. These are the things behind the scene which many of the patients do not see. They dun see the part that due to us compromise our postures and our care for them, we have subjected out body to many wear and tears. Many of us ended up with lower back pain due to constant lifting and shifting of patients. Like i say, patients will not understand what we went through and why we always try to ask them to move themselves or assist us in any way to reduce stress to our body. Of course, to patients, being transferred by us will be a more comfortable way. i do understand, you are the one suffering. Shouldn't we help one another. This world is not just about you alone. If we are down, who is going to carry out the scans for the patients.

In a way, it was heart warming to hear some of the patients saying sorry to us. Although they could not help us much, however, the acknowledgment that at least our effort are being appreciated. They do understand the tedious tasks we went through in order to provide the services for the patients. 

Anyway, back to my surgery. i have decided to go under the knife to prevent any worsen condition. Now, i just hope that the surgery will not bring much hindrance in my later life. The things to do now are to get my health back on track and try to more exercise so that i would have a speedy recovery later. Hope i will not be out for long. 

it has been a while since i updated the blog. ha ha ... 

i was in my own little world for the longest time. My world just revolved round my work. The friends i met daily are from my workplace and workplace is coming my second home. This has become really bad in a sense that i begun to lost connection to the outside world. So here am i, trying to reconnect with the world outside my job. 

Time to let myself out for a breather.

A special mother's Day without any celebration. 

My thoughtful mother has requested for a buffet next sunday instead of this sunday. Reason being it is too expensive and crowded this weekend. i am pretty sure we are not the only family who have the same thinking. It will not be surprise to us if next week will be as crowded as it is today.

Any presents? nope coz i did not have time to go and research on which notebook to get for her. She will not appreciate if you offer her to pay for her new spectacles. She would rather receive a brand new laptop. That's my mother.
