Busy and Scary DaySince yesterday afternoon, we had been very busy throughout.
My father-in-law fell down in the toilet while he was going to bath.
No one knows how he fell. But it was a very bad fall. We heard a loud thud, and my father-in-law started to shout for help. When we opened the toilet door, we saw his nose was all covered with blood. It was very scary. My maid quickly tried to stop the bleeding but couldn’t. My hubby wanted to bring him to the doctor, but he refused to. Then we called the ambulance. When the medic came,
my fil still insisted on not going to the hospital. What the medic did was to stop the bleeding and advised us to monitor him closely. If the bleeding persists or he vomits, he will need to go to the hospital.
Soon after, my sil, bil, etc. came to visit my fil and this time, the bleeding started again. They managed to persuade him to go to the hospital for a check-up. Again, we called for the ambulance and sent him to the hospital.
I went to visit him just now and found his condition to be worse than yesterday. His right side of his face starts to bruise and swell. He is on drip and oxygen mask and is not allowed to consume anything. Really can feel his pain and discomfort. My hubby and his siblings are taking turns to stay beside him in the hospital. Hope he gets well soon.
