Ah shit, I coughed up blood today. No wait, actually I sneezed out blood that was from my throat, along with much yellow phelgm. It felt like there was some fleshy part involved, but I decided not to investigate too closely. Of course, the fever followed after that. I suspect it's a viral infection through my throat. Whether I caught it while waiting 4 hours at the hospital the other day, I'm not sure. Ah damn, just hope that my throat recovers and I don't end up like last time.
Oh yes, they did the coloanal scan on my grand-dad. Apparantly he has "shui liu" - water piles? This is what happens when the doctor talks to my grandparents in chinese and we don't get the english name. So, they want to send him for an operation to go in and possibly remove it, but due to his previous stroke/Alzheimer's, not sure if he can go under anaesthesia. Gonna consult the neurologist.
Ah sucks, he can't sleep at night due to the pain, so my grandma can't sleep.
Really, if I'm old and can't get a maid to take care of me, I would kill myself.
