Quick updates on the operation

Communication with the family in Taiwan is limited to text messages since the hospital and the dormitory have no internet. They have not left the vicinity of the place since they arrived in Taiwan last week due to the close monitoring performed by the hospital with Wacky and Caress. We will try to post each update we receive from the family.

April 25 6:41PM (from Raymond): Nag start nang mag-milk si Wacky. Si Caress baka sa Thursday i-discharge na (from hospital).

April 24 11:12PM (from Lara): Si Wacky minsan gising pero pinatutulog daw. May ubo si caress nahihirapan sya ngayon.

April 22 1:51PM (from Lara): Dito kami ward. Nag-try nang maglakad si Caress ng kaunti. Mamayang hapon ulit. Ini-encourage kasi nilang maglakad ang pasyente kapag post-op kahit masakit pa.

April 21 12:12PM (from Raymond): Nasa ward na si Caress. Medyo nahihilo pa. Pero pinaglalakad na sya kung kaya nya. Hindi pa siya pwedeng kumain.

April 20 12:48PM (from Raymond): Natapos ang operation ni Caress ng 3:45PM, si Wacky at 9:10Pm (April 19). Nasa ICU sila ngayon. Si Caress in two days pwede na sa ward. Si Wacky, tinanggal na ang respirator. =)

April 19 10:27PM (from Lara): Kadarating lang namin ng dorm. Grrr.. maginaw dito ngayon. Nakita na namin si Wacky sa TV sa viewing room. Nakakaawa tingnan kasi may tubo. Hope they'll recover fast.

April 19 10:00PM (from Lara):  Nakausap na ni Jun (Raymond) si Caress twice through viewing room from the ICU. Si Wacky tapos na yata pero di namin alam if nasa OR o ICU pa sya. Wala pang nagsasabi sa amin.
