She fell down and broke her leg.

Ni cerita seminggu dah basi.. tapi sbb sibuk pindah rumah kan.. baru skang dpt update..

On Monday 28 Jan, I was otw back from work when Mr Photographer sms-ed me “B fell at day care, kaki bengkak. Call me once u reach tren”.

Jantung aku mcm nak terkeluar ok. Dlm tren tgh ramai2 org tu aku tak pedulik, air mata aku kuar berjurai2.

Aku teringat citer kawan aku sorang nih, maid bawak her 3 y.o son main buai, budak tuh jatuh, tah mcm mana jatuh.tersepit, tulang peha patah and hancur. Maid did not tell her sampai la pukul 10.30 mlm, which by then the kid’s peha dah bengkak mcm org besar punya peha.

The journey from KLCC to Melati station was the longest ever, seriously.

Sampai jer I called Mr Photographer, and Balqis picked up the phone. “Ma, adik jatuh la.. kaki adik bengkak” She sounds ok.. hati aku lega sikit.

Lepas they picked me up, we went to nearby klinik. Dr said kena x ray, takut tulang patah, pasal Balqis kenot walk, each time sentuh kaki dia, sakit sgt katanya. So pergi sana sini cari tempat x ray, last2 we went to Ampang Puteri.

Panel ke tak, aku pun tatau. Tak leh nak pk ok… dah emergency kan? Kalau kampeni aku yg kedukut ni tak mo bayar pun sudah.. yg penting anak aku ok.

All the time Balqis was ok. Bleh gelak, main, but once nak masuk x ray, and the staff asked her to luruskan tapak kaki, nangis la kesakitan budak tuh, kesian.. aku plak tak bleh nak duduk dekat pasal pregnant. Sib baik ada daddy bleh teman. (Daddy ler kawan baik dia skang, asyik kena dukung jer..)

So after x ray, jumpa dr balik.. and guess what… Tulang jari kedua and ketiga on her right foot is BROKEN. PATAH. Bukan fractured, bukan terseliuh, but PATAH!

Aku mcm nak pengsan ok.

Yg buat aku lagi nak pengsan, bila dr said “kena tunggu dr pakar dtg, I dah call dia. See what he says. I’m not sure whether kena pasang SKRU or SIMEN”

Dgr jer SKRU or SIMEN, aku rasa mcm… berpinau kejap kepala. How can this be? Anak aku patah kaki? Tak pernah beb dlm sejarah keluarga aku ada org patah2 tulang nih! How Balqis going to endure the pain?

So we waited kat emergency ward tuh. Meanwhile Balqis syok dok main wheelchair.. tolak sana sini, suruh daddy dia bawak jalan kat luar.. ambik gambar pakai henfon, nyanyi2… hmmm… cam lupa plak kaki dia patah ek?

So after like 1 hour ++, specialist sampai. He said “Tulang patah, but not serious. We don’t have to simen or skru, pasal jari pertama and keempat akan act as simen to support the middle fingers. Time tidur kena tinggikan sket kaki, I will put on socks to her and give some painkiller. Within 3 weeks it should heal by itself lah”

Fuhhhh…lega ok!!!

So now, we officially have a new madam besar in the house. Tak bley jalan kan? So duduk terbaring atas katil, dgn PSP kat kiri, laptop kat kanan, TV kat depan. Nak apa2.. jerit jer panggil mommy or daddy.. Sonok nyer dia… pergi mana2 daddy akan dukung. Nak apa2 mommy akan ambik.

Skang kak ani tolong jaga dia. Dgn kakak aku sekali jadi org suruhan dia ok… sabo ye kak ani?

Hehehehe.. So, apparently she fell from the stairs. Balqis said dia main lompat2 from tangga, specifically lompat from 4 anak tangga. She cried time jatuh (obviously). But the day care staff tot mebbe tak serious, so they just sapu minyak urut and did not call me or the daddy.

Aku marah? Sikit lah… but benda dah jadi.. marah lebih2 pun tak guna. I just told them nicely next time kalau jadi gini, pls call cepat2.

So now, every morning aku pergi sekolah dia, ambik homework, ask her to do at kak ani’s house. Kalau 3 weeks tak pi sekolah, tak mo la tinggal byk sgt kan? The teachers are all shocked, camner Balqis bley patah kaki? Lompat? Pasal to them (the school teachers) Balqis is a nice girl, tak lasak sgt. Hmmm.. tu lah kan.. aku pun terkejut.

Kak ani said.. hari pertama.. seronok sakan Balqis.. jadi maam besar. Masuk hari kedua, dia dah start boring. Asyik duduk jer… sampai bontot pun naik kematu. Kak ani kesian sgt kat dia asyik terperuk dlm rumah, ptg2 bawak pi jalan makan roti canai and minum the tarik. Happy sket dia.

Tapikan… bila fikir2.. dgr kaki anak aku patah pun aku nak pengsan.. camner ek.. parents nurin felt? Parents sharlinie felt? Its wayyyyyyyyy beyond my imagination… tak leh nak pk. Aku jadi gila kot.

I can never compare to what happened to them. Aku patut bersyukur my daugher is still with me, breathing and alive healthily. Teringat dulu time Balqis kecik2, first time kena selsema, aku panic bagai nak rak. A friend told me to relax, dia kata “at least your daughter is still breathing” hmm.. tu la kan? But ye la.. we as parents takkan nak relax bila anak sakit kan?

So doa2 lah balqis cepat sembuh k?
