Dying Patient!!!
A week ago, I visit my friend who is admitted in the Hospital. He was having a last stage of illness. I enter in the ICU (Intensive Care Unit), with PPE on. He was sleeping when I visited him. Looking at him, I felt sad and confuse. I sat beside him and keep him accompany. He was on ETT, 24hours Vital Sign and ECG lead. Later, He woke up by opening his eyes, and look at me. I felt happy as he awake. He tried his best to communicate but unable cause the tube is in his mouth. He tear down and hold my hand, I know he tried to tell me something, I told him that he will be fine and recovered soon. I look at the ECG line, was turning abnormal any time. I remember his last word when we will up the rooftop. He wishes to carry on his study after NS to be Engineer (Aircraft).
I can’t bear much and can’t do much for him. He is the only boy in his family and had a girlfriend waiting for him to recover. I told him that to stay on not to give up so soon, you have a long way to go, my dear friend. I control my tear as I walk out of the room. Tearing down fast and uncontrolled myself as I told myself, what am I doing, and why I have to do all these visiting and document that patient are going to die soon? Why I have this appointment as a combat nurse? Should I been here the first place? After an hour, I document down all I need to do so and carry out my work. Walk out of the ICU and reflected back what happen to him during the event that cause him to collasp.
