Had a very bad fall yesterday, one of the worst ones I ever have since I can have a clear memory of my life. After falling down on those rough cement/concrete area, I managed to limp to the nearest bus-stop to pick myself up. Was thinking of continue going for the focus group first before getting my wounds dressed. But as I sat there, cold sweat start breaking out, my heart start racing and my head start feeling faint. That was when I realised it is not something to be taken lightly this time round.

I called those whom I think can come to my help, and thankfully there was Bing De. Many apologies for waking you up from your slumber!!! :p Thank you for being there with me, for helping me with all the stuff at UHC, for waiting while the nurse addressed my wound, for paying for the dressings, for letting yourself walk barefoot under hot sun while I wear one of your slippers, for buying me my meals and most importantly, for the care and concern that made me feel much better.

Thank you Cyan who happened to be at the bus stop and helped me across the road to UHC even though you were already late for your consultation. Thank you Pearl and Serene for dropping by my room to bring me subway! ;) Thank you Zi Cheng for helping me change my dressings, for buying me my meals, for treating me so many things, and most importantly, for all the little words and actions that lessened the physical pain from all the wounds. Thank you Eng Eng, Sarizan and Samuel for all the advice on dressings while I disturb you people on phone. Thank you many others who showed care and concern when heard about my plight.

The incident inconvenienced me greatly, causing me pain, sleepless night and temporary disability. I have only myself to blame for being so careless and I really hated myself for being handicapped in such a way, for having to trouble people with things which you can normally handle easily. But there is also this part of me which is really thankful, for it shows me once again how fortunate I am to be surrounded by so many friends who care. And it also feels good when you know you have someone to take care of you. Blessing in disguise? :)
