QMH Surg 完了﹐現在到 QMH Med。 聽其他人說這正好是 'Rehab' 的時間﹐ 我現在真的體會到啦﹗post-call half day + compen + rest day + annual leave,  假期多的是 。 今天另外一位 houseman 病了﹐有一位又放了 compen, 所以 ward 裡 只有我一個, 沒有 post-call half-day 。 阿爺竟然很驚訝的說﹕

‘你 post-call 呀﹖ 得你一個﹖所以我都唔敢 call 你呀 ﹖’(有沒做的功課﹐而我又去了吃早餐)

 。。。。。我發夢嗎﹖有聽錯嗎﹖D6 的 staff 實在太好啦.......不再像以前被‘禁固’了

其實之前在 Surg 沒有 post-call half-day, 沒有 relieving houseman, 又剛做完手術﹐一個人做三個ward (URO, ENT, HN), 一連做 35 + hrs ﹐還要受氣比人鬧﹐都是這樣過。 所以我完全不介意﹐ 而且只是一天吧了。 做得開心最緊要

D6 的 staff 也很好笑﹐ 有一個特別好笑的有一天對我說﹕

‘你好像來了之後殘了﹐開頭覺得你可以選亞姐’ (說笑罷了)

‘亞姐﹖ 點解唔係港姐﹖’

’你唔覺得亞姐靚 di 咩 ?'

完來是這樣.............hahaha  

I thought this was quite interesting ......
OT call yesterday (Sun, which was from 11am to 8:30am the next day, supposedly quite a long time), but there was surprisingly no OT except a simple LA ! quite rare indeed

Post-call meeting:
Surgeon asked me: 有無去銅鑼灣行下街啊﹖
(???? 原來唔係要留係度㗎嗎﹖﹖﹖霎時唔知點反應.........)
Me (只有傻笑): errrrrr, 無啊, 唔敢行開啊
Surgeon: cherrrrr.....

It's typhoon no.9 today....so can get off work early, but I guess it's not so good for the patients as OTs are cancelled and everything is delayed.....

But these 2 days has been so busy since getting back to work, being a 1/2 'relieving houseman'. I was the last one to order at K1 on both nights....and it was in fact lunch only. It was already lucky that I don't have to be on-call this week (only OT calls, which usually means 'complete bed rest', although I was surprisingly called into liver transplant for a while, and did nothing except standing..) otherwise it'd be unimaginable. And really grateful to those who switched calls with me. 

It was nice though that the Uro MO thanked me for helping in their ward (although I was assigned to do so), and helped me with some minor tasks during his ward round, like writing the drug form, and said MO should do the work when houseman is on leave which is still not the practice at QMH. But I politely said MOs are already busy with OTs, OPDs, ward rounds......haha, so considerable of me!

Hopefully next week would be better when the other houseman comes back....but later next week those block B, block K calls would be my 'friends' again.  

it's been a while since the last update, so I guess I should probably do so before my annual leave ends....there'd be no internet back at the quarters, and no time during the ever so frequent on-call nights at QM SUR ....

I just don't like the block B and block K calls....the feeling of walking around the hospital in the middle of the night alone is just frustrating, esp when you're sleep deprived.....at least in the admission ward there'd be MOs working together with you, and you don't feel so helpless, and the OT calls are good in that you usually get 'complete bed rest'.

have been quite troubled these days over whether I could get at least a few days' sick leave next week for OT. I'm prepared to be scolded by the secretary, who have made the on-call list already; and the resident-in-chief. I get questioned these days 'why I haven't planned this or that...?, well if everything in life matches so well in time, there'd be so much less worries and troubles on earth. I just couldn't help...

Well, felt happy today that even the most stringent nurse wrote the MAR for me to sign (so that I don't have to do the copying), and prepared the tray for me to do a drip. I was indeed surprised and kept saying thank you, probably they realized that I always responded to their requests sincerely ....even when there's no breakfast/lunch/hydration. Actually have been used to eating tea, not lunch, now...coz there's usually so many people at K1 at lunch time, and sometimes by the time you finish the morning tasks, it's already tea time. (of course it's not always that bad ^-^, maybe just coz I was too slow in things).

媽媽以前教小學﹐常說教書越來越辛苦﹐比以前多了許多行政工作和課外活動﹐原來現在的小學生也不輕鬆。今天聽媽媽說小表弟哭了﹐為甚麼呢﹖他今年五年級﹐原來老師今天說明天音樂課就要小測﹐樂理 (e.g. p, mp, mf, f..) 和音樂家的名﹐一晚的時間﹐叫人怎麼能不緊張? 尤其有來自父母的壓力。 音樂課應該唱唱歌﹐玩玩樂器才是嘛。還記得以前在澳洲的時候﹐ 音樂課不用考試﹐ 學吹牧童笛﹐幾首簡單的樂曲和旋律, 都已很好聽啦。
