Intoxicated

I was in the gynae ward this afternoon, looking for a case of vaginal discharge to be presented during the bedside teaching session tomorrow. When I was busy rummaging through the stack of case notes, suddenly, I sensed someone strangely familiar standing in close proximity to me. I raised my head.

It’s Dr. Teh.

Immediately, my mind was a blank and I blushed. I ogled at him for a few minutes, during which my lungs hyperventilated, my blood pressure elevated and my heart pounded hard.

His facial skin is flawless. He has such an angelic and enthralling smile. It makes me feel sort of…intoxicated. I always fantasize about being the nurse who silently tags along him whenever he does his ward round.

Well, disappointingly, I don’t think he recalls my introducing to him previously anyway. He’s in the ward looking for a patient with ruptured ectopic pregnancy on whom he’d be performing a unilateral salpingectomy (removal of Fallopian tube).

Time flies. My current posting (O&G) will end soon after the end-of-posting exam next week. Again, I’m having the pre-exam syndrome with a spectrum of symptoms ranging from apprehension, anxiety, compulsive eating, obsession with sms-ing, breathing difficulty to mild insomnia. A lot of stress, certainly.

However, the motivational and encouraging sms-es William sends me every now and then do assume a substantial role in soothing my soul and alleviating the pressure I’m facing. He kindly requested me to express my gratitude to him officially and openly. So, thank you lo, Gor. =p
