Disgust?

If you remember, I was hospitalized almost a month ago for a minor nose surgery. Details here. During my hospitalization, my sister managed to visit me in Penang. I asked her to take some pictures and videos of me during my stay.

After the surgery, I could not breath through my nose. The endless compression of gauze dressing pads completely blocked my nasal airways. The medicated gauze pads were inconveniently there to help heal the stitched wounds. It took Dr Chua 3 times before he could completely remove the pads. Each time, the gauze pads were seen to be about 30 cm (12 inches) long. Scary huh?

My sister, who is an amateur video taker, used my Canon digital camera to take the following short video:

Apparently she did not realized that the video recording was terminated after she hit a button. That explains the length of the video.

Her second attempt was not that phenomenal after all. But you get the idea of the procedure!

Dr Chua and I

This is the physician who operated my nose, Dr Chua Hock Kim.

    Did you not note the title? Well, this is not the full video. I wonder how would you respond to the full-length version (that does not exists unfortunately).
