This is my second time deployment to handle COVID-19 patients. Last time I was deployed to low risk quarantine centre. However, this time around, I requested to go to the COVID ward, a COVID ward where they also parked the pregnant ladies there.
Day 1
I went into the COVID ward to review patients. After settling all my jobs, initially I plan to pray for a baby, because she kept crying non stop. Pity the mother. However, in the end I invited other patients to come and we prayed together. They were mostly Iban but I prayed in English. A bit headache when I was too long inside, probably it was too hot. When doffing, my whole attire were wet, water drippling when I squeezed it. It was all wet!
Met my specialist in-charged today. She was very cheerful, nice and very approachable person. Thank God for giving me a good superior.
Day 2
Today, again it is my turn to don in (means I need to wear full PPE and enter COVID ward to see patients). After everything settled, I "beh tahan" with the heat already, want to leave immediately. However, I still walked to the back cubicle and asked, if the patients yesterday, still need prayers or not. To my surprise, this is the reply from one of the patient: "Dr, saya nak minta tolong kamu berdoa untuk saya dan anak lagi, tapi tadi saya nampak Dr busy, tak jadi saya minta tolong Dr." I smiled, invited the rest of the patients who wanted to join us and we prayed together.
