Part 11 Of My Ruptured Appendix Journey

 

*makan: Malay word for eat. Commonly used in Singlish among Singaporeans. 

i.e: "Hey it's lunchtime! Do you wanna go makan together?" 

Thank you Dr. Woo! 

You are an exceptional doctor!

Part 10 of my ruptured appendix journey.

After bb went to tell the front desk that we don't want Nurse Susan to step into my room again, I was being called racist by another nurse. 

That is why I asked yesterday am I being racist for showing my annoyance and asking to not see that nurse again. 

It was an unpleasant experience, especially when I was in pain after a big surgery... and the worst thing happened that night :( 

Drawing all these all brings up loads of unpleasant emotions. 

But I need to do this.

Part 9 of my ruptured appendix journey

I know nurses have been on the shitty receiving end of their jobs, (especially so during this pandemic) but to take it out on the patients, that isn't ethically correct. Maybe she had an especially messed up and exhausting day? Maybe? 

But what wrong has the patient done? No one wanna get sick.  

We moved last month and have been settling in our new place. 

Computer is up and hopefully, I can continue drawing my comics. 

It's traumatic to relive all these again, but art can help. 

I have been thinking should I disclose the race of the nurse?

I am Chinese too, so does that make me a racist to call out another Chinese? What do you think?
