once upon a norza

I had a hard time getting up from bed this morning after I fractured my ribs two days ago. Just one day before the accident, I was enjoying a ride on my bicycle from my place to Bishan Park before going to my mum's place to fetch Aisyah. The next morning, my legs gave way when I woke up and I crashed to the floor but not before I hit my ribs against the sharp corner of my bed. I lay slumped on the floor, immobilised in pain. Fortunately the kanda hasnt gone to work and he helped me up.

We rushed to the GP who referred us to TTSH for some xrays and I had to be in the observation ward for 24hours. I was placed with 3 other patients with different cases. One had been having diarrhoea for 4 days and was dehydrated. The other two patients had bad cases of asthma.

Now I'm back at home with an ugly bruise and i cant move myself without any pain or even find a comfortable sleeping position but I'm glad that the fall didn't injure my kidney. I was only given some painkillers which makes me very very drowsy. They say the cracked bones will heal on its own. I'm walking very slowly and I look like one of the zombies in the 'Deadrising' game kanda plays on his xbox360. heh.

I dont know when i will recover to carry Aisyah again though. She has been sent to my parents' place because she will surely ask me to carry her or bathe her when I'm around. Only saw her on Monday after my photography assignment last sunday. Missing her so so much. :(
