Irony

Irony

Today morning, as I prepared a pt for an induced abortion, i've learned that the pt is in an early pregnancy with a newly diagnosed advanced breast cancer..

Her presentation started 2 years ago, when she found a small, mobile lump on her right breast while she was breastfeeding her 3rd baby. In fact, she has been breastfeeding since 10 years ago, non stop. She went to see a doctor but was told that the lump was normal, that it was her milk ducts.. Little that she knows that it was something bad and could change her future..

Now, the lump has grown bigger and become fixed to the overlying skin and made her skin darker. After all these changes that she went for another check up and was told that she has right breast cancer which has spread to the liver.. A few weeks after that she found out that she was pregnant, but the surgeons have decided that she will be needing chemo and an operation for her breast.

So, here I am, helping her for a medical termination of pregnancy, in order for her to go through the treament for cancer without putting risk on her pregnancy.
It is so irony that I felt that her breast has been serving her children for the past 10 years.. and now it is sick..

I hope everything goes well for this pt and may all of us will be under the mercy of Allah. Amin

Labour room, HKL 👶

Labour room, HKL 👶 Hello everybody..! Today i'm going to share a bit about my work place. It is a public area and almost half of the reproductive aged women come here at least once for a lot of reasons, but most importantly, to deliver their precious babies safely.. This is the front door HKL LABOUR ROOM. Looks a bit 'old'.. yeah, as old as my mother actually. This building was actually built in 1963, so yeah.. This is what its like to be in the compound. This is the front desk where the patients will be received by their nurses and will be prepared at their respective rooms. HKL labour room is mother friendly, in which it permits the patients husband, mother or sister to accompany the patients in the room until they deliver. Therefore the mother wont feel lonely or scared. And of course, if there is no one to accompany the patient, our nurses are ever ready to help in what ever conditions..
