💕 Happy reading 💕
Atma is preparing to perform major operations for the next few hours, special clothes operating room has been worn, nervousness and fear Atma is increasing. His face was deathly pale, a surgical cap was already attached to his head, not to mention the urinary catheter and infusion that remained stuck.
Atma's wrist was already sore holding the needle infusion that stuck, when the motion there is pain felt. Not to mention a series of laboratory tests, complete peripheral blood tests include leukocytes, hemoglobin and platelets.
Not to mention the detailed ECG/heart record examination, urine testing and not to mention X-rays. A series of painful and frightening tests for a child of Atma's age.
Amanda, Rama, and Denis were in the observation room before actually removing Atma to the operating room to undergo a series of heart hole closure operations.
“Atma fear.”
Atma's hands are like ice, yes .. Not only that Atma's body feels cold like living in the North Pole where the cold freezes all joints.
“Atma don't be afraid yes, there is Mama and 2 Papa on the side of Atma,” Amanda said comfortingly. Denis and Rama's faces looked very tense even the sweat of a corn-scroll seemed.
Atma nodded obediently, gathering little by little courage. He looked at the two people who were now surrounding him with a pushy look, wanting to cry and saying that he did not want surgery, not wanting to feel pain but what power, he said, his desire to live a normal life like a child his age is higher than to endure the pain that he always believed would pass.
“Can Mama accompany Atma into the room?” ask Atma who holds great hope if the Mama can realize his wishes.
Just wanting to answer Abi had approached them by wearing a uniform that was the exact same color as the one worn by Atma, Abi smiled stroking the top of Atma's hair affectionately.
“There is Eyang Abi accompanying Atma inside.”
Yes ... Abi joined the Atma surgery medical team this time like 7 years ago. With a faint smile on Atma's small lips, he forced a smile when he saw two adult men on the right and left showing expressions of fear compared to Atma.
Denis and Rama face even deathly pale, they are like statues standing beside Atma.
‘’If the pain can be moved, Papa will replace you dear.”
“If possible, Papa who was in the sickle bed, Nak.”
Speech in the hearts of Rama and Denis amid the fear that now reigns over the heart, Amanda can still control herself to remain strong in front of her son. Hoping for the firmness, vigor and strength in him felt also by Atma.
“Papa Rama.”
“Papa Denis.”
Atma called out to her two papas, quickly Atma and Denis positioned themselves closer beside Atma, their bodies bowed to be able to look closer at the plain face of her son and hear his words.
“Atma dear Papa Rama and—“
Atma's words paused, he turned to Denis on the right side.
“Still a little affection with Papa Denis,” he said honestly continuing his paused remarks.
“Nothing ... Papa will make you really love Papa Denis as you love Papa Rama,” replied Denis who still displays a smile when his heart feels sadness.
“Acknowledged it's been nice of you, Denis. After what you did to your own child, don't expect more to be loved quickly, effort! Effort!” the other side screams in Denis when disappointment struck.
“Is it true that Papa is not angry when Atma only loves Papa Denis a little?” atma asked by showing her index finger and thumb that were almost attached to Denis.
“Not ... later Atma will love very Papa, Papa, so Atma healed so that Papa can show the same Atma if Papa really loves Atma and can make Atma happy so that later dear Atma is very big,” Denis said with a smile and a tear that tried to be held back.
“Really?”
“Ya .. of course.”
“But Atma is tired ...”
All eyes immediately wide open to hear the word spoken from Atma's small lips, Amanda immediately grasped Atma's hand free from the infusion needle. Grasping and then peeling it many times.
“No word tired, Honey. Atma is a strong boy, doesn't Atma want to be able to play with sister at home?”
“Of course, Atma misses twins.”
“Then from that, later when in the operating room, Atma must be strong,” timpal Rama who also kissed Atma's forehead with affection.
“Promise Mama, Atma will open her eyes again, see Mama and Papa,” Amanda said with a trembling voice.
“No! Atma did not want to promise,” led Atma by displaying a row of teeth and narrowed eyes.
“Honey ...,” rebukes Rama gently when Atma can still invite them to joke with his innocent smile while the adults around him are already stubborn even the heart feels down to the abdominal cavity.
“Iya Pa, Atma appointment ...”
Speech that made everyone feel a little relieved, the doctor from the room to the bed Atma who was lying down gave a warm greeting so that the boy in front of him did not feel afraid.
“Hallo handsome boy,” sweep.
“Hallo Om Doctor.”
“Know me Doctor Robby, I am an Anesthesia doctor who will come into the room with Abi Rahman.”
“Iya, greetings, Dok.”
“I am also a friend of Mama Amanda loh, so do not be afraid yes,” said the doctor again.
“Of course ...”
“Om The doctor will inject the drug into the infusion hose, it feels only a little sore after that Atma will fall asleep, can ya?” the doctor explained what he was going to do.
Atma nodded obediently, Doctor Robby smiled.
Amanda clasped her hand tightly, with the position of not releasing the kiss while continuing to close her eyes and pray that all the operation process goes well.
Repeatedly Rama and Denis took and exhaled a breath neutralizing the thump of tension.
Ampoules filled with anesthetic fluid were inserted into the infusion hole stuck in the hand, Rama and Denis closed their eyes did not have the heart to see it. Amanda still faithfully put her lips on the cheek of the child with her eyes closed, drugs should have been given while already in the operating room but at Amanda's request finally dope was given in the observation room before entering the operating room.
Hoping to take that step, Atma was much calmer when she closed her eyes to see the family still by her side.
Sure enough, in a matter of no more than 5 minutes of drowsiness had struck, Atma smiled looking around the people who loved him before the eyes were closed perfectly and his consciousness was lost.
With Atma's body quickly transferred to the operating room gurney, Amanda releases Atma with ordinary sadness but this is how it can be done so that Atma lives a normal life like other children. At least not aggravate the heart condition Atma later in life.
“There's Abi, Nak.”
“Titip Atma Abi, do your best.”
Abi nodded then stepped wide following the medical team that was waiting in the operating room.
**
The lights were bright, Atma was already unconscious. Before performing this major surgery, the team of doctors pray together according to their respective beliefs. All have taken their respective positions, Abi is only a companion doctor there.
The surgeon has given an incision in Atma's chest, the operation began. All medical teams work deftly, monitoring every monitor that displays the condition of Atma's body. Heart rate, blood pressure, all monitored. The anesthesiologist on the left side of Atma kept looking at the condition monitor, Abi Rahman on the right side of Atma by continuing to recite prayers in the heart.
“Blood pressure drops.”
“Do transfusion.”
“Siap.”
“One bag is up.”
“Add one more.”
“Siap.”
“Add anesthetic drugs, extended operation.”
“Siap.”
All the medical personnel seemed tense in the operating room, not least Abi.
“Pulse rate weakens.”
“No! No!” shout Abi. “do your best.”
Atma's body had a seizure, the medical team was getting panicked to see it.
“Atma you must be strong, Atma. This is Eyang Abi.”
Abi patted Atma's cheek, just saying that the monitor displayed a chart that was getting lower and over time showed a straight line.
Abi's body immediately decayed, the knees felt limp with tears that began to flock down to wet the cheeks. The doctor continued to complete the operation until the end, after finishing the white cloth pulled up to cover the handsome face of Atma.
The faces of the entire Doctor looked lethargic, sadness instantly enveloped the operating room, they failed. Abi was hired by two of his fellow doctors to come out to see the family.
There was no smile atma.
There is no babbling.
Everyone felt sadness for his passing.
“No, Atma!” shout Denis.
Rama patted Denis' shoulder, sweat splashed on his forehead, Denis fell asleep while waiting for Atma during the operation that had been running for more than an hour. A dream that felt very real, after Atma was brought into the operating room the three of them waited in the waiting room.
“Where is Atma?” ask Denis to panic.
“My son is still alive ‘kan?” ask again.
Amanda who was sitting next to Rama looked at Denis with a look of disbelief.
“You had a bad dream?!” ask Rama.
Denis rubbed a rough face ....
“Arghh! Thank goodness it was just a dream,” hiss Denis who sat back with an unreasonable heartbeat.
“Atma is already in the observation room, but not yet awake. Just now that Abi met us here, I thought you were so tired that you weren't distracted by Abi's arrival. Turns out to be late in a nightmare,” Amanda explained.
Looking at Denis expression that looked depressed, made Rama and Amanda shake their heads in disbelief.
“Wake up, Denis!”
Denis is still regulating his irregular heartbeat.
Appreciate it for as long as it is still there, love it before you go and dream in life don't instead live in a dream!
