I was sick since starting of the year. It was a challenging new year for me. Firstly I went into a surgery to remove a piece of metal from my left foot. It was very small just 5mm in size but had caused me inconvenient left foot that has always swollen whenever I walked too much. I have no idea how the metal got into my foot, perhaps happened during my childhood times who knows right?
Since that surgery till now, my surgery wound is still not healing and I have had countless visits to doctor and specialist to care for the wound as it got badly infected and the stitches had to be opened and just last week I got it restitched. And then I was advised to check my blood sugar level as I was suspected a diabetic, and so it was true. I got my HBA1C test result for my cumulative 3 months blood sugar level reading and it was 10.3. I don't know what that's mean, just that I know it's not normal and I am a diabetic patient starting from that moment onwards.
My whole life seems bland because there will be no sweet desserts for me anymore, no more ice creams, chocolate eclairs, chocolate moist cakes, etc etc sob sob sob. And for a Malay the hardest one was to stop eating rice. There goes my lunch and dinner with my favorite rice dishes. I was advised to start my insulin but I refused and so was given tablets to eat daily twice a day and to start a strict diet.
Yesterday, I started to work after a long medical leave and in the noon time my meeting. I walked back to my office, to my horror, the stitches opened up which I think due to the walking here and there. And I had to rush to the hospital and got it fixed. I was tired of this and I feel so down, there is no way to turn back the clock and eating right from the beginning. To keep myself on a positive mind, I think I just have to change my eating habit and start a strict diet, that's all right? My wound will definitely recover with care. Anyway there is nothing else to do but to accept this life turning point for me and move on as after all life goes on, so "Accept What It Is, Let Go Of What Was, And Have Faith In What Will Be."
That's all for now, wishing you a pleasant day and Happy Weekend!
Take care and Stay Blessed!
Yours truly,
