Starting the Weekend at the Hospital

Hello, guys! Weekend it's already here. Hoping your preparing yourselves to enjoy Christmas.

My weekend started at 5:20 am. After five months of waiting, my uncle went to surgery at 7 am. He's suffering from a third grade enlarged prostate. Today it's the day he will stop suffering from this.

For this surgery, my uncle had to procure all the medical supplies required for the operation. From the special probes to the surgical gloves. This is because the public hospitals in this country do not have enough materials to attend this type of cases, or at least that is what they let us know.

For my part, I must be the one to take care of this situation because my uncle has no wife or children, and since the operation is in the city where I am residing, it was obvious that it was my duty.

Fortunately, I am already on vacation. And I have the necessary time to take care of my uncle in the post-operative period. I hope this weekend passes quickly so that my uncle and I can return home and rest.

This is a new experience for me, even thou I had taken care of people in the past, but never of a man.

For now, I am waiting for him to come out of surgery to inform the family of his health condition.

Hope your weekend goes better than mine and wishing you all a happy weekend!
