***
One eye Jim.

Suddenly i also dunno what to blog.

When mummyhelen told me, my mind went blank and deviod of emotions.

Guess being in the medical line kinda makes you numb to stuff like this.

Mummyhelen: Your dad is blind.
San-d: *wondering what has he done to piss her off again* What blind?
Mummyhelen: He go check up the doctor say he is blind in one eye.
San-d: *wtf??* Huh? WHat talking you?
Mummyhelen: Hiya, you go call him yourself la.


I immediately rang up papi and asked him whats the deal.

Then the news sink in . He has Gluacoma in his right eye and had became completely blind in that eye.

I keep asking him "sure or not? sure or not?" " got see specialist or not?" " What kinda gluacoma you have- got many types, you know?"

(wonders why am i in a denial stage)

Papi is so cool about it.

I wonder is he putting up a front.

Papi: People got one eye jack, you can call me one eye jim.

*faintz*

For people like me, stuff like this supposed to be bread and butter.
But my reaction for today shows me that guess we are human no matter what profession you are in.

At least i handle this issue better than Garlic.

Though he never say it, but i know it is affecting him badly.
Guess thats what constitute to his minor "kiss the bumper and lose $400" accident.
After all he is the emotional one.

Hiakhiakhiakhiakhiak*snickers*

Suddenly it makes me realised that life is so fragile and may hit you when you least expected it.

And when i put down the phone call with papi, i cried.

There is really no need to put on a brave front.

And i really feel better after that and can carry on with research on his condition and making sure he better protect his other eye.

Lucky for him his left eye is functioning 100%.

Guess this is a wake up call for me that papi is no longer the strong and strapping papi already.

And i better not take him for granted.

Sigh.
