压疮：什么是对的并不总是受欢迎。
(谷歌从英语翻译成中文）
我不为写这篇文章感到自豪。 当朋友们寻求帮助时； 他们的亲人 从医院出院 患有压疮…
“我妈妈卧床不起。 请保持她的干燥并定期转身。 …让她的皮肤崩溃。” “这太苛刻了，不可能； ……因为我们人手不足！” 正确的事情并非总是会被普遍采用。 但是，有些医院能够维持零压疮率 在他们卧床不起的客户中。
“自五年前以来，我一直坐在轮椅上 而且我的臀部没有任何溃疡。 知道什么？ 治疗师给我看了一张照片- 一个丑陋的压疮！！！ 我努力不发展一个！”
“我们轮流照顾 我们妈妈在医院。 当她被弄脏时要改变她， 经常转动她 在工作人员的帮助下。”
普遍做的事情并不总是正确的。 不幸的是， 确实发展了压疮 在他们住院期间。 预防压疮 是多学科的责任 （医师，理疗师，营养师，护士）， 尽管护士扮演着重要的角色。
您是否同意家庭成员和护理人员也应在预防压疮中起作用？
发言人说：「首先不应让压力性溃疡发展。 因为要治愈这个 “伤口”还需要漫长的旅程！” …以防止她的皮肤崩溃。”
Pembohongan kecil- mengenai ostomi – A White lie
(Pembohongan putih better or Pembohongan kecil, anyone?)
Jangan pernah berbohong. Tidak kira apa – walaupun sedikit kebohongan putih ( kecil). –Margaret Keane-
( Terjemahan Google daripada Bahasa Ingeris kepada Bahasa Malaysia)
Ponusamy ditemani oleh anak perempuannya
untuk berjumpa dengan stomaltherapist.
Walaupun penjagaan stoma-nya
dan kulit di sekelilingnya sangat bagus,
dia membuat banyak aduan mengenai mereka.
Pasti sukar untuk dia terima
mempunyai beg di perutnya untuk mengumpulkan najisnya.
Pakar bedah tidak akan menyambung semula usus
atau menutup stoma seperti yang dicadangkan enam bulan sebelumnya.
“Mereka mengatakan bahawa itu adalah penyumbatan barium sulfat di usus besar saya.
Tetapi sudah dikeluarkan. Mereka harus dapat memasang kembali
usus dan tutup ‘benda’ ini, stoma ini,
jadi saya boleh membuang air besar secara semula jadi dari dubur saya!
Tetapi mereka tidak dapat memberi saya alasan yang baik
mengapa mereka tidak akan beroperasi untuk mengembalikan keadaan saya! “
Anak perempuan itu memanggil stomaltherapist.
“Semua anaknya bersetuju dan memberitahu pakar bedah itu
supaya tidak memberitahunya bahawa dia menghidap barah usus besar.
Dia berusia 88 tahun dan pernah menjalani dua kali pembedahan jantung!
Kami takut dia mungkin akan menyerang lagi! ”
“Saya sudah bersara, tetapi saya seorang yang pandai membaca.
Keletihan atau rasa letih saya sepanjang masa;
tabiat usus sembelit dan cirit-birit;
penurunan berat badan secara tiba-tiba; darah di dalam najis saya;
semuanya menunjukkan tanda dan gejala barah, bukan? “
“… Anda baru saja mengatakannya, dengan sendiri!
Ini adalah laporan biopsi anda.
Ya, memang benar… “
Tuan Ponusamy terus terdiam.
Kedua wanita itu saling berpandangan, risau.
“Awasi ayahmu di rumah!
Hubungi saya atau pakar bedah anda bila perlu! “
Pada bulan-bulan berikutnya,
Tuan Ponusamy akan mampir ke wad
setiap kali ada pesakit yang dijadualkan menjalani pembedahan ostomi.
Anak perempuannya akan bersiap sedia, dari jauh,
semasa ayahnya menjelaskan secara sistematik kepada pesakit baru
mengenai cara menjaga stoma.
Kami juga menemui penceramah yang cemerlang.
Encik Ponusamy berkongsi pengalamannya
di seminar untuk profesional penjagaan kesihatan
dan pesakit dengan barah usus dan stoma.
“Saya mempunyai kerjaya yang berjaya, menyayangi anak dan cucu.
Tetapi, saya akan lebih bahagia sekiranya saya diberitahu yang sebenarnya keadaan saya dari awal
supaya saya dapat membuat rancangan dan melakukan yang terbaik dengan masa yang saya masih ada. “
Kebohongan putih, tidak kira seberapa baik maksudnya,
haruskah seseorang memberitahu atau tidak memberitahu, pembohongan putih?

…and a new amateurish gardener is born!
I bought my daughter two pots of flower plants.
There is an evil bird nipping of the flower buds!!! 😠😡😡
The next day she messaged, “I realized that the buds dropped off shortly after I watered the plants by squeezing a plastic drinking bottle!”😟😬🙄
Mum, look how it is blooming now!
It’s blooming, it’s blooming! 🌼💐💐🌸🌸
——
…and so, an amateurish new gardener is born!

It takes skill to K.I.S.S.
In Apathy, unfeelingly , I like what a fellow blogger, K.K. commented. “Short and crisp!” Not that it’s like crunchy potato chips, but it reminds one that it takes skill to K.I.S.S. (keep it short and sweet)!
I used to summarize CVs ( 1-4 pages long) and lengthy abstracts to fit them into conferences’ program brochures. They were good exercises for me.
And if one can carry forth a point in 50 words instead of 500 words, I would prefer the shorter one.
Practise K.i.s.s.-ing!

Religion or spirituality?
Both teaches one to be good and do good.

I am still learning how to cook
I saw an interesting recipe today.
I have never tried using sour cream in my cooking all my life. Tomorrow I will go buy a pack of sour cream to try this recipe.
You see, I am still learning … !

The sun is setting,

My nephew took this picture in Ireland. It looks like a fire in the horizon!

COVID-19, new social and environmental phobias.
*****
Try not to use the lift; confined space, poor ventilation! Let walk up, it's healthier!😐 Try to avoid crowded area; social distancing, let not go at peak hours! ******* Sigh, these people on the next table are talking so loud and non- stop! (They took off their masks because they are supposed to be EATING!) Let move to another table further away! Avoid close contacts! *****
******
The daily COVID-19 number is not receding yet.
Subconsciously, I find that I am developing new phobias.

Gift of life: Have you donated blood before?
That year, I took a group of nursing students to a blood bank as part of haematology clinical experience. Most of them decided to donate blood that morning. I did, too, upon their persuasion.
I was ashamed to admit that it was my first time. But it was a satisfying experience to have contributed to a gift of life!
Have you donated blood before? Do you even know what blood group you belong to, in case of an emergency?
Quote:-
Donating one unit of blood may save the lives of up to three people. – the American Red Cross.

Merging cultures, the beauty in diversity
****
“I want four packets ‘nasi lemak’.
More ‘chilli and sambal please’!”
“It’s very, very ‘hot’, boy! Lu boleh tahan chilli? (you can stand the chilli?)”
“Bolih, Mak Cik, no problem!”
***
Some pick with chopsticks
some with fork and spoon
or better still, with fingers
Oh, a versatile tool at hand,
only that, the food would slip
through my fingers
before they reach my mouth!
*****
Some are good in arts,
some in workman skills,
some have head for figures
some for business and economy.
*****
Over time, with adaptation
and enculturation
leading to a new cultural synthesis
in languages, pronounciations,
fashions, lifestyles, and food.
*****
Such is a beautiful melting pot
of differing elements
each has its own beauty and strengths
that one should respect and be respected.
