After op, he was placed in ICU for further observation in case lah..coz premmies mah...Op went well and everything was ok till this icu young doc on duty gave him morphine to stop the pain when i complain he was crying non stop... then my boy couldnt take it...and had difficulty breathing..i was told to leave the ICU room while the team went in to 'resuscitate' him...those were my darkest moments as a mum..my fren was visiting then and she witnessed how rude that young lady doc was..initialy, i din want the morphne coz i was nt sure of the effect of morphne on a young bb...but she said well, if you dun wan, then it will affect his feeding coz he is now in pain..thereofre, he wun feed well. so i agreed to her doctor's judgement and she administered it. Luckily, he was saved lor... but after that, i wrote a complaint letter to CEO of the hospital adn later to the medical council to complain abt that stupid doctor... I dun care liao..Ever since my boys born, i discovered i have become more daring and outspoken in speaking up for their rights and well-being..
