its 15 past 11 on a sunday nite... the boys are in bed, as is THE WIFE.... number twos been cranky the last couple of days, we havent been having much sleep.... i guess a baby being a baby, he is just doing what he is program to do...... keeping mum and dad up... hmmm...
we were at nuh a couple of days back... we were refered to a professor queck, by the good dr simon, and he in turn referred us to a professor prabah... i guess they are must be pretty good in what they do to get referrals... hmmm... prof q is a pretty nice fella, looks like he is pushing 60... he did a once over with number two and referred us to prof p..... lets just say that its sort of comforting to see old profs, with so many years under their belts, they must have seen everything..... hmmm... and according to prof p, what number two has is something only 5% of babies with this particular condition gets.... when you worked it out, 5% of the 1 in 5000... that would make it 1 in 100,000..... considering that the chances of touching 4D is 1 in 10,000.... number two just touched 4D ten times... hmmmm......
according to prof p, he has only seen 2 or 3 such cases and most of them are girls.... he should be able to do the second operation when number two reaches 6-7 kgs.... that means we have to fatten up number two.... at around that weight, prof p should have enough of intestines to work on.... what prof p wants to do is to take the existing part of number twos intestines, fused to some of his other large intestines and hopefully have enough to make everything alright....
prof p arranged for us to meet the stoma nurse... as it turns out, i knew the nurse... we used to be classmates back in the old days... junior, number two, if you are reading this.... point to note here, be kind to all your friends, you never know when you will meet them again needing their help.... the last time i met her was 16 years ago.... i guess number two is in pretty good hands.......
