Retinal detachment

When I woke up in the morning, the horse shoe had became darker and bigger. It had already covered almost quarter of my right vision.

I quickly made a call to my doctor’s clinic and get the earliest appointment at 0930. We rushed down town and arrived at the clinic at 0925 but we waited until 1230 to see the doctor!

The nurse dilated my right eye and after a while the doctor examined my eye. He confirmed I had retinal detachment. He referred me to Dr. Lim, a vitreoretinal specialist in Kuala Lumpur and arranged with him for an urgent surgery.

After paying the doctor, we made our way home and we began to called our relatives and family to inform them about my condition and urgency for an op. We arrived home by 1330. The house stirred into actions. Phones started to ring.

IS (my brother-in-law) was here in Melaka and we asked him to help. He sent me and my mother-in-law together with Dominik to YC’s (another brother-in-law) home in PJ. LA would and the other 2 kids would be in the other car and they pushed off later. LA needed time to pack for the kids.
