RE: 20 Safar 1446 Hijri. 26th August 2024. The day of surgery
Alhamdulillah. Congratulations on the successful surgery of your dad. I knew about angiography and angioplasty but nothing about how and why a Bypass is done. Although I just realized the term is pretty self-explanatory. Thank you for explaining medical terms in your blog, generally doctors don't bother whether non-doctors unserstand their jargon or not. 😀
The word "ventilator" is scary. I totally get what you felt about it.
Alhmdullilah. I think its of paramount importance that people learn about terms associated to their bodies and health (God forbid if they ever have to face anything of this sort)
Yes the word ventilator is indeed scary. I have seen multiple patients being on vent but to see someone coming off vent was something I had never thought about. It was a very strange feeling to shift a person from artificial breathing to natural breathing.
I thought of explaining the word 'ventilator' in this blog as well but I thought it might get a bit long. I'll do it in my next post.
