i could not recall a significant event that occured yesterday, maybe because i only had 3 hourse of sleep. went to bed at around three and woke up at 7. nahilo ako buong araw! parang blurred lahat ang nakikita ko. everything was in slow motion. i came back to my senses late in the afternoon coz i had to accompany fiona to the hospital kasi iaadmit namin si martin. kawawa naman kasi coz his parents arent around. he's been sick since last saturday and his fever hasnt gone down since. he didnt want to be admitted but we had no other choice. baka lumala pa if he stayed at home. besides, there wasnt anyone to take care of him there since he only stays in an apartment with his cousin who's also in college. may pasok rin si tina so she couldnt be there all the time. when we arrived in the hospital, andun na silang dalawa. martin looked so sick and pale. kawawa talaga. we had him checked in the ER. at first, ayaw pa niyang magpaadmit kasi the only space available was in the hallway! apparently, all the rooms are taken kaya sa hallway nalang yung ibang patients. Gad!! a lot of people are getting sick nowadays. kahit yung private hospitals puno! as in fully booked! we wanted to go to the other private hospital but they declined kasi wala na daw talagang space. wow. our other option was to have him administered with IV tapos uuwi nalang siya. parang out-patient lang. then he'll go back to the hospital para check ups lang. atleast may intravenous na nakaattach sa kanya. besides, he lives across the hospital naman so its not that hard for hime to go back to the hospital. but then sabi ng nurse di daw pwede yung ganon. kung may IV, dapat ipaadmit daw. hindi daw pwedeng iuwi yung patient with IV kasi wala daw magmomonitor nun. so fiona and i said na "nursing students naman kami so kami nalang magmomonitor sa kanya", but then hindi pa rin nakalusot. so yun, martin had no choice but to take the "hallway." he's still there right now but he's getting better. atleast he wasnt as pale as yesterday and he can eat na. before he was admitted, hindi kasi siya nakakakain due to his tonsilitis, which, by the way, is the main reason why he got sick. Tina said there were times when he'd only take three spoons of noodles in one day kasi masakit daw talaga yung throat nya. oh well, hope he gets better.
