On my own!


It was the darkest part of my life! Have you imagined how hard it is to be alone with no one to hold on that very crucial day! You're feelin so much pain and yet no shoulders to cry on. . No arms to comfort you. Far away from your friends and family, and you wouldn't even dare tellin them what just happened for they might worry a lot! Yes i didnt tell my family. I still remember my sister just texted me how am i doin here. How is my work? How was my food? How was my co-workers? My dorm? I've been at work for only 2 weeks then.. . And i remembered what i had just been said. . . . '' i'm ok here! I am now washing my clothes then after these im gonna fix my bed. . . What a lie?! I even cant get up from that hospital bed neither i cant move my leg that day. Thank god there's Emy, my co-worker, my supervisor sent him to help and take good care of me! Without any hesitations, he just helped me out from bringing up my meals to washing my bloody bondage and even wash my portable urinal. . Imagine this person who didnt even know me and just met here, lend a helping hand. Perhaps he did knew the feeling of bein alone hospitalized by that kind of accident! It's no ordinary fever or sickness i've got broken bones, my leg was almost divided into 3 pieces. .
I just keep on saying sorry to him for any troubles that i have caused him.
Then came Mike to substitute Emy. Same as Emy, a very kind and patient person. . How can i forget he's the one, aside from the nurse who's on duty that day saw my birdie hang lose. . That was because after the opertion they changed my clothes. I was still high from the anesthesia that day but i remember clearly what i just told mike then. . ''Mike nakita na ang bototoy ko ng nurse!''. Then i fell asleep, still high from the anesthesia. And when i woke up again i was screamin to death for i could feel the pain from the operation. I told the nurse and she gave me a shot of pain reliever. I could feel it runnin through my veins, i felt numb and fell asleep. I took a shot every 4 hours. I felt relieved. . . The following days im beginning to accept what just happened to me. . Everytime my doctor visit me and ask me if im ok well i always say yes. Then he asked why is it that everytime he asked why do i always say im ok and i told him that i gotta be ok. . Yes that's what im always thinkin ive gotta be strong for no one can help me better than my self that moment! If i stay weak then i would have a lesser chance to fast recovery.
''You are so brave!''. I just remembered what our coordinator just said to me. I had never shed a tear i remained strong not until the general manager of department visited me he saw my rosary and ask if im a christian and would i mind if he offer me a prayer and i said no not at all that is what i needed the most. Through his effort to say his prayer in english i didnt notice that tears runnin down my face! He is someone i barely know yet offered a prayer for me which is probably the greatest help i did ever get. . .
