Zorro

Zorro suddenly entered my life. He was found in apartment area ground floor. He had been miaow-ing for almost 5 days, every day and night. When Bibib found him, he was sitting on the corner suspiciously, weak and dirty. He’s a bit limp when he walks. We bathed him yesterday twice, with baby shampoo and very warm water. We gave him milk and Whiskas, which he ate it almost in rush. Poor kitty cat… Before bed, we made him a ‘cat litter tray’ for his toilet. I’m sure that Zorro is not one of  stray alley cats. He was either abandoned by his previous owner or ran away from home, because he is toilet trained (I didn’t find his bodily waste anywhere except in a litter tray) and he was castrated already. I don’t really sure which of cat breeds category he is.

Now, he is fluffy clean, happy and content.

gulp, gulp, gulp

Start from last week, I’m currently going fruity. I make fruit blend with a glass of white skim milk and also fruit flavoured yogurt. I think it’s a good idea to make up my lack of calcium, fiber and others good substance of nutrient.

The ingridients are simple. Any of your favourite fruits plus any fruit that easy to blend with and its taste is not over powering the others. My all time favourite is: banana. Why? Banana is a natural source of carbohydrate, is digested easily, fully packed of energy and add milk, you got breakfast on the go! Now, is the season of sweet mandarines, so I choke them up inside the blend. I like my blend full fruity flavoured.

What’s you favourite blend?

Ouch…! (part 2)

I went to Eye Specialist or Ophthalmologist to check my right eye yesterday morning. I’ve been experiencing a discomfortness sore in my eye plus ultra-sensitive to light and the night before, I saw a tiny white pus at the outer circle of my cornea. I even tried to swab it with cotton bud. It didn’t  remove at all, hence it became more reddish and watery. And hell a lot of screaming, of course.

The Ophthalmologist is just down the road from my flat. I looked on the list of Eye Specialist, from Optometrist to Eye Surgeon on the Internet, to jot down their addresses and phone numbers. I needed to call and made appointment because last saturday was both weekend and public holiday, 1st of Muharam. Luckily enough the one that I’ve been looking for is nearby, so I don’t need to waste on transport money.

Eventhough, the place I supposed to go for is just one doorstep away, yet there was a ‘human error’ mystified us. First, before I went to Ophthalmologist I visited GP. This Tamil GP old dude with a mumbling English came with a diagnosis that I had corneal foreign body and needed to be removed with special equipment. His diagnosis was incorrect. (I tell you later, so read on. Swear to God, GP can be so disastrous!) Secondly, Bibib called the Ophthalmologist to reserve and he assumed that it is located on IOI Mall ground floor. (The correct one is IOI Business Park). Because of the public holiday, so the appointment was made under emergency situation and I had to be there at 8 sharp. So, as predicted, we missed it and begged the Doctor to push back on 9.30am.

Doctor Ranu, the one who examinate my eye, was graduated from UK and he speaks a really good English. He concluded that I have corneal ulcer or a typical contact lens abusal. He showed that the whitish dot on my cornea is still growing, inflame and got a hazy surrounding. It is contracted by bacteria and he said that I’m lucky that the ulcer is spotted on the outer of cornea not on the centre. Because, as the ulcer healed, the scar will remain. So, imagine if it was on the central cornea! I would have had blurry right eye vision! I would have been a one eye pirate-like person! God… Alhamdulillah. I came to this symphathetic doctor immediately.

I have another appointment on monday at 10am sharp. By then, I learn my lesson:

1. Wear prescription glasses for at least 2 weeks
2. Visit eye specialist every year at the least
3. Discard all the Saline Solution, used contact lenses as well as the cases from now
4. Practise super-duper hygienic on handling contact lenses
5. Listen well on what people say via phone call
6. Take a best care of your precious peeper. I’ve been wearing cosmetics corrective contact lenses since I was 15 years old, so I could look like a normal 20/20 sighted person. Cure mostly is expensive and there may be some price to pay, like scar for example
7. Ulcers are not only appear on the gum, but also can exist on the cornea!
8. Even you are as beautiful as Miss Jolie, save your pirate look on drama stage. One eye is not cool
