Ambition And Magic

Chapter 29 I'm Not Sick

The doctor seemed to frown at the results of the examination of Renita's condition. The results of the USG, the results of laboratory examinations are already in the hands of the female doctor. Dr. Palupi, an obstetrician on duty, is currently examining Renita's condition.

"Bu Ren. seeing the symptoms, the mother is like having a miscarriage. But when we ultrasound, the mother's uterus looks clean there is not the slightest sign of miscarriage. No need for curettage either. I concluded, this time the mother experienced the Blood of Istihadhah, which is the blood that comes out, but not in accordance with the provisions of menstruation and puerperium. To that end, today's mothers directly do prayer, teaching and other activities." unexpectedly, Dr. Palupi instead highlighted from the other side.

"Or maybe, I'm already approaching menopause Doctor, because I'm 47 years old now." Renita added another possibility.

"It is possible that it can occur, but the mother's uterus is still fresh, there are no signs of dryness, as early detection if the mother will be exposed to menopause. For that, you can have to continue to carry out your duties as a Muslim, I did not bring the book this time. But I've read it, and I make sure that the hadith is authentic." The doctor's answer, it confused Renita.

The two women, and there was a nurse who accompanied them fell silent. The doctor was still stuck in his observation, but seemed hesitant to convey anything to Renita. Not long after..

"For the treatment of mothers, here I make a prescription for Mefix 500, for muscle pain relief.also Kalnex is a drug used to stop the bleeding process in a number of conditions such as nosebleeds, injuries, etc, bleeding due to excessive menstruation, and bleeding in patients with angio-derived edema." the doctor describes the drug prescribed for Renita, which is,

"But Doc.. for Mix otherwise I drink no problem right? Because I don't feel any pain, or any other pain Doc. Even the doctor can see no, even though I have almost one box spent pads since morning, but I did not feel weak." because I did not like the drugs from the doctor, but I did not feel weak, Renita tries to negotiate with Palupi's doctor.

"May, or want to try alternative treatments can also, maybe use zam zam water. Have you tried it yet..?" Renita was surprised by the doctor's question. But indeed, Renita had never tried it either. Instantly Renita remembered the case when convicted of suffering an eye stroke, then there was no medicine from the doctor, and Renita dripped zam zam water in the sick eye every time she finished praying, asking for healing and protection from God. Finally, as with any miracle, his eyes could be declared healed without surgery, and without treatment from a doctor.

"Why do mothers daydream instead." hearing that last question, Renita smiled wryly. Finally the woman recounted the miraculous incident when suffering from eye disease some time ago.

"once Doc.., I promise to try therapy using zam zam and dates. Who knows even be a match for my recovery Doct.." Renita finally responded to the words of the Doctor.

"Yes ma'am, the important thing is that we as humans are required to strive, not only resigned to the fate that is in front of us. Already yes bu consultations, may Ms Renita immediately be given healing and always in the protection of God." finally the doctor ended his consultation.

"Aamiin, thank you Doctor, I'm saying goodbye." Renita finally came out of the action room. Andri was waiting patiently for his wife outside the door, finally immediately grabbed his wife's shoulder and took her to the car.

In the car on the way home, Renita recounted the results of the doctor's examination. Andri just silently listened, and thought to herself. Realizing that his wife was panicking and upset, the man tried not to provoke her panic, so it was better to keep to himself what was on his mind. But once the problem is resolved, then Andri will tell his wife.

"Yes yeah, but we don't have any side dishes at home yet. Later if the children go home how, pity if there are no side dishes, they must be hungry." considering that this morning, Renita had not had time to cook, the woman intended to stop by the restaurant paddocks, the, to buy a side dish.

"Already.no need to think about the side dish. Later only father who look for him mah, now we just go home. Because mamah can not go anywhere, I am afraid of anything happening with mamah." hear her husband talk, Renita was silent, if it was so usually Andri can not be invited to negotiate.

The road leading to the couple's home south of the southern Ring road was quite crowded. While holding back the burst of blood that kept coming out, Renita straightened her backrest. She slowly closed her eyes and did not move at all. From his seat, Andri looked at his wife with a concerned look. Although in their daily lives, between Andri and Renita there is often a commotion, but seeing the state of his wife, the man also felt sad.

Until three days passed, Renita did not dare to leave for the office. Not feel pain, because even though it has been minimized bleeding stop medication, but blood still flows profusely out. And Renita continued to duplicate her undergarments using bali sarongs, to prevent her blood from penetrating to the seat or place.

"Title. tet.." Renita looked towards the screen part of the phone. There was an incoming call from Umam, the Rector of UP at this time. Quickly, the woman received an incoming call.

"Assalamu aleikum's.." Renita said her regards.

"Wa alaikum salam, Miss Ren. We fathers in the Rectorate, want to visit home, is it allowed..?" from across the phone, a voice heard Mr. Umam ask him, he said,

"It doesn't hurt sir, it's just that I haven't been able to tell you about it sir. Tomorrow..I will try to come to campus, later I will tell you, actually I am sick what.." with a smile, Renita answered the questions of Rector UP to him.

"That's right.., don't lie to us ma'am.. If you are still sick, rest at home first, tomorrow I will come with Mr. Faiz and Mr. Adi. Ask what to bring.." jokingly, heard Mr. Umam still continues to urge to come to Renita's house.

"No need, Boss, I'm not lying. I'm healthy wal afiat, there's only reason I haven't been able to come to college. Tomorrow morning, I'll tell you everything.." Renita continued to refuse the arrival of her friends, because she did not experience pain.

"Yo whiskah then. keep resting ma'am. We wait for Renita's arrival at the campus tomorrow.." finally because their arrival was rejected by this woman, finally Mr. Umam ended his call.
