Man Down!!

Damn...yesterday one of my Aikido members got himself injured during training...

Blood coming out from his eyes and nose...although not that serious...but he felt very giddy...

Just in case...me and two guys brought him down to the nearest clinic in Clementi in Sensei's car...(that was the first time i sat in Sensei's car sia...)but driven by my friend...

Anyway, when we reached clementi...we went the wrong direction and ended up going one whole circle before we finally found the car park that leads to the 24-hour clinic...but after he vomited due to the giddiness which was made worse by the vibration of the car...

When we finally assisted him into the clinic, what shocked me was...the doctor's not in till quite some time...and that for my friend's case we have to send him to the nearest Hospital A&E...holy crap...after so much work...

No choice, i got my friend to drive Sensei's car back and the other friend to assist me...he went to hail a cab while i stayed with my friend...however, some cabs hailed zoomed off before my friend can even finished telling them where we were heading...

Finally, after some time hailing cabs, we finally got one...

We called his guardians (because he is a foreign student on student visa) and told them about his condition on our way to Alexandra Hospital...

When we reached...it took us quite a long procedure before we can finally know his condition...2 examinations,2 X-rays,4 or more consultation by both A&E doctors and eye-care specialist...that was hell of a lot of procedures...

However, i discovered an amazing fact...Alexandra Hospital had lots of backdoors...haha...i can see one staff entering Door A and the next moment the same staff entering Door A again...

Finally...after consulting the eye-care specialist...he was told that the bone around his lower right eye might be fractured and needed an operation which was not urgent...and was told to be warded for further observation...At first he did not agreed...but he later agreed after his giddiness did not subside...

Before long...i left the hospital...hope he is alright...
