My AV fistulae patient

I can't help it, but I need to definitely blog about her.
She's so funny, and entertaining.

The people here are hilarious, which reminds me of the other day at respiratory clinic, this old lady came in with a walking stick accompanied by another man, and I asked them what was their relationship to each other.
The lady replied," He's my son-in-law."
which prompted me to say, "It's so nice of you to bring your mother-in-law in to see the doctor."
Old lady replied, "yes he's really nice."
and son-in-law replied,"If I don't bring her to the clinic, she will hit me with her walking stick!"

Hahhahaha! seriously everybody is sooo funny!

Oh yes, back to this lady, she's about 70 over years old if I am not mistaken, she came in to get an AV fistulae done for haemodialysis, and I had clerked her in. On Sunday, I went to visit her to see how she was doing after the operation, and chatted with her for ages, cause she's just so fun and bubbly.

hahhaa she was kinda insulted in a joking way when I asked her if she sat at home doing knitting, which she insisted that she most certainly did not, and I cheekily told her that, I thought that ladies her age did those sort of stuff (knitting) :P

She even called her husband a cardboard box cut-out, as she said she has nothing much left to say to her husband as they have been married for 50 years! and her husband misses her so much that he insisted on coming back to see her again after lunch, which she did not want to, as he would just sit there and stare at her and have nothing to say. hahhaha.

and she asked me if I had a bf, and I was like "no."
and she said that I should go look for the nice young doctors in the hospital, and that if she was staying longer in the hospital she would more certainly find one for me.
and she mentioned about one of the doctors who was really tall.
and I asked her, "oh, the one with glasses and brown floppy hair?"
and she said, "Oh you noticed too!"
hahahhaa...
omg embrassing!!

After that, her daughter and grandson came to visit her, and she introduced me to them.
and I asked her grandson how old he was.
and grandma said, "He's much too young for you!"
ahhhhhh....
hahahahhahahaa.........
she's so funny =)
Talking to her really made my day :)

I'm glad that I went to visit her :)

Oh yes, one more thing which I noticed.
the registrar has not changed his clothes for like more than one week already..
hahahhahaha.
which reminds me of the other doctor in GH who we noticed that he did not change his clothes for a few days, and I was so thick-face and I went and ask him.
and he said that "I'm in scrubs most of the time, so my clothes are still clean."
hahahhahahhaah.
