Before I was wheeled into the OT room to deliver Baby C, I waited outside the OT. As I lay on the bed in the freezing room, a young lady (in her early 20s) and a man (in his early 40s) were waiting there too. I could see that everyone looked tensed. Instead of feeling worried and nervous myself, I decided to strike a conversation with the young lady. I told her I was in to deliver my baby and she told me that she’s going in to operate her brain to remove a cyst. As she talked to me, I could see that there were spasms on her face.  When I heard that she was in for a brain surgery, I wished her good luck and told myself that I wished to see her again… alive.  I did not talk to the man beside me but heard that he’s going in for a nose surgery. The OT staff later came to shave the young lady’s hair (only the back part). After that, I saw the young lady fervently saying a prayer. I too prayed for myself and for the young lady and the man for a safe surgery.
Up next….. I saw the man vomit blood after he was out from the OT!
