While crossing the overhead bridge to the mrt station, this middle age guy collapsed and had a tonic-clonic seizure. It was sure dramatic to watch… a few passers-by and I witnessed the whole episode. The ambulance took quite some time. Apparently they couldn’t find the place … and they kept hearing ‘epileptic shock’ as electric shock haha. Yeah sure, an electric shock while crossing the overhead bridge…
He had 3 episodes that lasted about 20 minutes. Had to keep holding his head cos the spasms were causing him to hit the wall at the side. Okay I’ve never seen a fit before. Poor guy … he starting foaming at the mouth as well. But thank God he was already in a fetal position, so no worries that he’d choke. There was this other indian guy who offered to hold his hands, since the guy kept biting his own thumbs. The funniest part was when the medics arrived, this med student started prodding here and there, feeling for pulse and breathing and everything … but what he didn’t know what that the initial assessment was already carried out, and he was definitely conscious. And the ecg was already plugged to the guy, so I don’t know why he didn’t realize that and started feeling for a pulse haha. in the end, he got chided. And he just walked off LOL
Yup. Tonic-clonic seizures are probably the most dramatic kind of seizures there are … I hope the guy’s OK now.
Life has been … pretty OK. Heh. Work’s getting more challenging, but I suppose it’s good to step out of my comfort zone.
Was feeling rather depressed the whole last week… the days leading up to my period are nothing short of depressing, really. But thank God! The skies have cleared :)
This morning as I was driving to work I was so distracted by the sunrise … it was gorgeous :) I wish time would freeze. Wasn’t keeping my eyes on the road heh heh… but the expressway was quite empty.
Yup. Life has it’s ups and downs … it’s what makes life, life.
But in the face of trials, I know God wants me to declare by faith that life is good.
One area where I’m currently facing the greatest frustration is probably my love-life. Heh. Just being honest … there seems to be a drought of men in my life at the moment. So it’s hard, really. Hard to believe, at times, that God sees or that He cares at all. But faith means believing in light of these things. He who promised is faithful… and His faithfulness He himself can never betray…
Xx
