“What is the cleansing of the uterus in what ways, Doctor? Curettage?” tanya Tama to Doctor Indri.
“Iya correct ... with curettage. Curettage also includes surgery sir, as the patient will be sedated and asked to fast as well. Cleaning tissues in the uterus.” explains Doctor Indri.
"How long's the curettage, Doc? Was there any impact after that?"
"Curette or curettage procedures generally take about 10–15 minutes, and patients will get anesthesia while undergoing this procedure. Mild side effects that can occur are light bleeding, cramping or abdominal pain, dizziness, nausea, and vomiting which are the effects of total anesthesia."
Doctor Indri explained everything in detail, and Tama listened as well as possible. So that nothing is missed. Because, however Tama is so lay with medical matters.
Tama heard of the procedure and possible side effects, "If in the future we want to have more children, there is no effect right Doc?"
Doctor Indri shook his head. "none. Many patients who after doing curettage can also still have offspring. Precisely if no curettage is feared there is still tissue left in the womb, so it must be removed and cleaned."
A little explanation from Doctor Indri slightly appeased Tama that at other times they could still have offspring. Finally Tama approved the curettage procedure done on his wife.
"It can be done the day after tomorrow or tomorrow. Only, Anaya should fast first 6 to 8 hours before curettage," replied Dr. Indri.
Anaya nodded her head, "Well Doc," he replied.
"Don't be afraid Anaya, I will take care of you myself and clean the remains of the embryo in the womb. So, later it will be cleaner and can get pregnant again really," he replied.
"Please Aunt Indri," Anaya replied later. A little forget about the formalities that occur between the Doctor and the patient. Now Anaya wants to call Dr. Indri by the name of kinship only.
When Anaya was about to get off the gurney, Doctor Indri apparently immediately hugged Anaya there. "Don't be discouraged well .. problems for pregnant women and reproduction is indeed a lot. It's just that everything can be healed. Later Aunt herself will handle you," replied Dr. Indri.
"There are many aunts" Anaya replied.
"Don't think too much dear .. We never know the way of God. Hopefully with all this there will be better hope for both of us" Tama replied.
"Yes," he replied.
After that apparently Anaya chose to go and put Citra to sleep first. It took less than half an hour before Citra was able to sleep. Then Anaya chose to sit on the bed and lean on the headboard. As a woman, a mother, of course Anaya felt sad there was a sense of disappointment as well. But what if God wants that.
Tama who was waiting for his wife, finally sat down beside Anaya. The man carried Anaya's head into his arms, his hands moved and gave a gentle swipe at Anaya's arms.
"This is my same story" said Tama who opened the chat that night.
Anaya shook her head slowly there, "No," she replied. However, along with that answer, tears escaped the corner of his eyes. Anaya was crying there. It was painful to know she was pregnant, but there was no embryo in her womb. Maybe the embryo is just an empty air bubble.
"Don't think too much honey .. That means we're told to put in another effort. Sad to say, just don't drag on. You when to take the embryo that way curettage. Faster is better because you also have to recover, my dear," said Tama later.
"I'm afraid, Mas .. in my life why I'm always close to the one whose name is lost. Even he, the fruit of our love both must grow imperfect," he urged.
Tama knows how sad Anaya is now. Tama was also sad. However, Tama must be strong to strengthen Anaya. He wanted to give his wife the best support.
"Patience is dear .. means you are a strong person. Many pray, after the three periods later, we get permission from God to get another baby" Tama replied.
"Aren't you sad, Mom?" ask Anaya to Tama later.
"I'm sad Honey .. very sad. Only if we are both sad, who will comfort and strengthen each other?" his reply.
Anaya's cry broke out there. So poignant. However, Anaya was completely convinced that her husband was feeling so sad. Tama now chooses to shut up and hugs Anaya. Not saying much, Tama made sure in this sad time he would always be there for Anaya and would always take care and strengthen Anaya. It was his promise to himself.
