Hope he'll be ok soon...

It's been 6 days since my dad was admitted in Manila Doctors Hospital for his knee surgery.  He's been complaining pain in his right knee and the finding was that there's no more cartilage tissue left in his knee.  He had his operation Wednesday and it was successful.  He's been spending his 3rd day of recovery when the doctor said, he needed to undergo another operation since the stitches were accidentally removed and there was a hematoma (blood clotting) inside.


As quoted by my sister "It's ok papa"



Today is his 2nd operation at 2 pm and the doctor said it will only take 30 minutes.  The nurses got him in the room at 1 pm and we expect him to be back at 4:30pm the latest including 2 hours in the recovery room.   It was already 6pm but no news yet from the doctor or the nurses.  We tried going to the Operating Room and the Recovery Room but the nurse said, the operation is still on-going and they will inform us when he's transferred to the recovery room.  Another 1 and a half hour passed, we tried again asking what is happening but there's still no news.  Until now, it's already 8:15 and we are now worried.  We are praying that my dad can handle the operation, that he'll be safe and recover soon.

    1. thanks michi, he was out in the OR at 6am (16 hours in total) thanks God... His BP is very low so he is undergoing blood transfusion, 7th blood bag is done, 1 more to go but no more available A+. I was right not donating blood in the office last week. They are now testing my blood and in 10 minutes I am due to donate for my dad.
