HER SANCTUARY ♥
Thursday, October 27, 2005


In regards to the above, my CSU group [proudly?] proclaimed that we blew two balloon catheters up, and spewed sterile water (which is likened to spilling urine in real clinical settings) all over our faces and white coats during the course of simulated catheterization yesterday.

Eeeew....

I guess we need more practice. Period.*sheepish grin*

I just found out that catheterization is also done on females who underwent Cesarian surgery. That has never crossed my mind before. Strange huh? Now I am thoroughly amazed - of what my mum had gone through when I was born. The excitement on having her first child, the long wait, the anxiety during labour (from what I've heard, the doc who delivered me arrived a little late)....and panic when it was further complicated by foetal distress, prompting the 'oh-so-punctual-doc' to perform a C-section.

So yes, one could say I've had a 'near-death experience' before [dad recalls I was slightly blue then]....not that I can remember of course.

Thanks mum. =)

And dad.*huge grin*
