On Saturday 14.oct.2023, it is his duty day for the Elderlies' lunch and dinner.

About 4 am, he received a call from ER asking him about some details and informing him that the CT Scan shows bleeding aka Subdural Hematoma in the previous place 2.oct.2021 and a new location. Also inform him that the elderly age and heart condition is not suitable for any major medical intervention meaning brain surgery is not suitable.

When the sun is up, he went on his own to tim won to buy congee for the Elderlies' breakfast and found out that the pork noodles stall is no longer operating and the congee lady now sells pork noodles too.

9.30 am, he and the elderly grab MYR 15 nett to ER to find that ER has moved the elderly to a normal ward. 

10 am - kid 1 and family visit the elderly who can move arms and legs but still couldn't speak. Low red blood count 7.3 (13) so he

11.30 am - ward requested all visitors to exit ward so kid 1 and family took one elderly home and ate lunch together at fatty mok. He went to eat some food at Starbucks and visit the ward again at 12.30 noon visiting hours. The nurse used the wounds materials he brought to wash the elderly's leg wounds.

    1. I didn't read up on blood count figures so I don't know is very low or not. You are very familiar with blood count numbers?

    2. Yes. Because I myself have low blood count. As mentioned in past post, I went for blood test earlier this year. Twice, reports came out unsatisfying as very low. Around 5 to 6 only. Even lower than your in-law. So now I am taking iron folic twice a day, boost up my iron and taking liver and bayam as frequent as possible. I haven't gone back for 3rd blood test.
