J trackback : 13th July 2006 afternoon

1600hr Dr Tang called to say that he had to op on Jerry
at 1900. I rushed down to the hospital
at 1700 to sign the papers.
1745 Jerry woke and cried for feed but NIL by mouth. He cried till
1915 when i brought him down to the operation theatre. Poor boy. God be with Jerry baby. Staff nurse Joanne was really sweet as she accompanied us down to the operation theatre.Being a mother herself, i guess she really sympathised with me as my tears kept rolling dowm my cheeks. i could hear her walking over to tim and asking tim to give me some comfort.
Tim and I handed Jerry baby over to the people at the operating theatre after we whispered our prayers in between sobs. Jerry was still screaming away as i handed him over.
1915 We headed to the cafeteria to try to grab a bite but we could hardly eat.
1945 Went back to NICU to express milk
2100 Gladys and Jason came to hospital and prayed for us and with us as we waited.
2215 Jerry finally was pushed up. Dr Tang said no problem and explained he had put in artificial tissue and glue and Jerry would be put on antibiotics for next 7 days and be observed.
It was the first time after more than a week that Gladys and Jason saw baby J for the first time. They prayed over him.
