locum

Friday, January 26th, 2007

i was offered a locum post in a nearby clinic yesterday from 6-10pm..rate RM 35/hour….i went there, met the owner who is very nice….and started work….i saw a few patients from 6- 7.30 and performed my maghrib…i had a 30-minutes rest before i started a full swing of consultation marathon from 8-10.30….!! masya allah, byknya patients!!!!!tak terkira…my tickets were queueing very long and i was rushing fast…..i asked the patient, chit chat a bit and examined them….prescribed appropriate medications for them…my stomach was growling….i was damn hungry….!bussiness is very good there at the clinic….i heard that the owner managed to get about 20-30K per month….!!wow!!!!!!!….thinking of doing that too, eh..?!heheheh…maybe….after i become a family medicine specialist…i went back at 10.30, an extra 30 minutes and managed to get RM 20 extra, alhamdulillah….insya allah, ada rezeki lg bleh buat locum kat situ lg….

asrul sent and picked me up yesterday…he had no locum last night…so, jihan was happily being taken care by papa….si manja papa tu mmg betul2 manja dgn papa…dgn mama kurang sket sbb mama garang…ehehhehe…

salam hijrah….

it has been a while since i last pour some thoughts into this blog….lots of things had happened to us recently…..we are turning over a new leaf sempena tahun hirah yg baru menjelma….alhamdulillah…

since we finished our housemanship in HUKM, we had a tough journey out there…both of us were seperated for a while…asrul went to Hosp Sg Buloh and i went to Hosp Kajang…was quite distressing….after 2 weeks, both of us got transferred to Hosp Ampang….i thought that was very good indeed as it wasn’t far from home…but somehow, Allah menguji lagi..both of us have to go to Hosp Selayang for attachment as Ampang is not fully functional yet…

we spent nearly 3 mths in Selayang…we travel the whole way everyday…and yet we didnt know where is our destiny after this journey…so, we decided to act fast as to ascertain our own destiny by our own choice….we tried our luck applying as trainee lecturers in HUKM…me in family medicine and Asrul in microbiology….we made this choice bcoz we want to spend more time with each other and our children, if not now, later on….i cant afford to quit my job and become a full time housewife so this decision is wise….i need to struggle hard for these 4-5 years to obtain my masters degree and become a family physician and then i can at least settle down a bit…

alhamdulillah, i’m already in HUKM as trainee lecturer…currently based in PPP HUKM…8-5 job with 2-3x oncall per mth in ABC where sometimes there’s no patient at all…i’m still thinking when i should start my masters…kalau takda aral melintang, i can join this coming june….if not, june 2008….

asrul had already went to interview and just waiting for his offer letter…in the meanwhile he’s doing locum and being a good househusband, managing jihan very well….insya allah, he’ll be back employed soon….

our lovely jihan is doing so well now…growing up healthily and she is such a bright girl….

we have sacrificed ourselves for a better life….hopefully, our efforts will always be blessed by Allah swt…insya allah….
