We received a shocking news last night. One of my cousin on my Dad's side is admitted in CCU RIPAS and she is in critical condition. We knew she has kidney problems which was a result from eating excessive Slimming pills but was so surprised to hear that she was admitted in Cardiac Coronary Unit. Apparently she also had a mild case of heart problem.
So what happened was that she has been having trouble eating and drinking since Hari raya and her husband noticed she was so weak on Wed so he took her to SSB Hospital in KB. They placed her on an IV drip and checked her Blood Pressure which was low. Then after 2 days they sent her to RIPAS. Then yesterday she was intubated in order to help her to breathe and also sedated. They also found out that her lungs are infected so she was placed on Antibiotics.
When we went to visit this morning, she was just coming out of her sedation and the Dr have instructed the nurses to switch the breathing assistance to back up only. The purpose was to see if she is able to breathe on her own but of course the machine will be there to assist her should she find it difficult to do so. She was able to open her eyes and she was biting her tube which means less oxygen was pumped into her body. We left when we started to fight it. We think she wanted to say something and was able to do so because of the tube. It was a difficult thing to witness cause we can't do anything about it.. Her husband told us she was crying..
We can only pray that god give her strength to fight it all. Amin.
