Mama had her knee replacement surgery done on 2 June... Below are pictures of her and her recovery from 2 June to her discharge on 7 June 2011.
Amanda and I fetched her and Kongkong at 6.15am and arrived TTSH before am on the day of the surgery... waiting for the operation... it was a really long wait before they finally pushed her into the theatre at close to 10am....
poor amanda ran a fever of 38.5 deg cel the moment we reached home from the hospital at 1pm... we were supposed to return to the hospital to visit mama but because of the fever, we waited for daddy to be home, left amanda with kakak and then daddy and i visited mama... amanda wasn't able to visit mama throughout the stay as we didn't want her to be exposed to more virus...
extreme left photo was taken hours after her op in the high dependency ward... the rest of the photos were taken in her room... mama took her first step on the 3rd day of her surgery... pretty good progress i must say!
we took turns to sleep over with mama... my turn to stay over on 5 june 2011... some of the gifts mama received... the rest have been brought home by sis...
Ready for discharge on 7 June 2011...
i fetched mama back from the hospital... the drive home was really really difficult and stressful as mum was in pain and couldn't take the long drive since the wound was still fresh... hence i tried speeding.. but on the other hand, she would wince in pain at the slightest hump or bump on the road including the tapping of brakes... boi was i glad when we arrived at her place... phew...
