Numbness (Lidya)
Chapter 12 Letter of Reference
Happy Reading's...
After last week's examination, Litha will re-examine the content because it is close to HPL (Predicted Birth Day).
Today is Saturday. Litha was forced to set out alone to the practice address of Angga's doctor on a microlet. At that time there was no online project like now.
Ali was forced not to deliver Litha, because he also had to complete his permit to HRD in the company where he worked. Litha understands that.
"Darling, I had to stop you. I have to get a leave of absence permit. I have to nemenin you're a lahiran right?"
"Yes mas. What's not what. I can go alone".
"Later after the mas take care of his permission, the mas will follow you to the doctor Angga".
"Yes mas"
"Beware my dear wife. Hope your content is okay".
"Yes. And hearts too, right?".
"Litha leaves mas. Assalamualaikum" then kissed her husband's hand.
"Girishama".
Litha walked to the front alley waiting for the microlet to pass. Only about five minutes of new microlet appeared in waiting.
"Sir to Rainbow Road, Gang 2".
"Good ma'am".
Mr. mikrolet's driver headed to where Litha was headed. Upon reaching the destination location, Litha handed over 2000 money for payment. At that time 2000 money was very much worth ya gaess than today.
"Thank you ma'am".
"Same sir".
Litha stopped at Rainbow Road, Gang 2. Then walk a little looking for the number 3-B, to the address of the doctor Angga practice.
"Assalamualaikum"
"Vaalaikumsalam. Please come in ma'am"
Luckily there was no queue at the time. So Litha was allowed in. Litha left early in the morning.
"Let me check. Please mom lie down. USG is mom".
Litha lying. A slim, beautiful and friendly doctor's assistant slightly undressed Litha. Cover the area below with a blanket. Litha's distended stomach was smeared with a special gel by the beautiful assistant. Then Dr. Angga examined it with an USG.
"Mom, this is a breech baby, the amniotic fluid starts a little bit and there's one umbilical cord loop. Fetal weight 2,700 grams. Pregnancy is enough months old. Fetal weight also supports birth. A minimum of 2,500 grams? And this baby can be born at 38 weeks gestation through a cesarean section. So I suggest giving birth to a caesarean soon ma'am".
"Is there no other choice, Doc? Besides caesar?" ask Litha.
"Can't be ma'am. Because of the position of the breech baby and there is one umbilical cord loop, the amniotic fluid has also begun to slightly bu. This is very dangerous for the baby's mother".
"Then I have to how do doc?" ask Litha again.
"I gave a letter of reference to the hospital. There is no equipment for caesarean section yet. Mom will go straight there. To the nearest Mother and Child hospital here, ma'am?"
"Yes doc. I'll call my husband first".
Litha called her husband.
Tut...
Connected calls.

While in Ali's place, Ali was already in his HRD room.
"Sir, I'm on leave. My wife HPL her today but no sign of childbirth yet. I want to be a standby husband sir. But it does not violate company rules. If allowed, I'll start today?" ali told Mr. Samsuri, HRD of his company.

In the practice room of Dr. Angga.
Litha was waiting for Ali with a letter of referral to the hospital. 15 then her husband came.
"Sir, have you been waiting a long time?"
"Yet mas".
"Let's ride. Heart of yes. Put on a helmet first" Ali put on a pink helmet for Litha.
Chequek...
The helmet is perfectly installed. They're heading to the Mother and Child hospital.
The Mother and Child Hospital
Ali took his wife. Then to the queue number. And poly purposes. Destination to poly obgyn/containments.
After a long wait, Litha's name was finally called a nun.
"Lithania Augustin's mother please come in"
Litha enters polytheism accompanied by Ali. The beautiful doctor tagged Doctor Princess was examining Lidya's stomach.
After a few minutes of checking. He gave the results of his examination.
"Mom, inshaa Allah tomorrow will have a caesarean section. Mother's condition is the same as this referral letter".
"Why not do dok immediately, instead of having to yq immediately? Faster is better?"
"His operating room is limited ma'am. So queue with other pregnant patients. Later my mother allowed to be treated here, so that I or the nurse can monitor the condition of the mother".
"Good doc. Do your best for my wife and baby" Ali told the Princess' doctor.
"Yes Sir. Sus please prepare a treatment room for Ms. Lithania yes" said the Princess doctor to Sister Gina.
"Yes doc."
After five minutes, Sister Gina returned.
"The room is ready, doc"
"Please take Litha's mother and her husband to the hospital room sus" said the Princess doctor.
"Nice doc".
Then Sister Gina took her to Litha's hospital room.
The room is located near the hospital garden. In the Silver-01 room.
"Mother please rest. Monggo lay down first. I fitted the infusion to keep mom fit. Mother's condition is a little weak".
"Yes sus"
Then Sister Gina put an infusion on Litha's left arm.
"It's over, ma'am. I stay yes. If there are any complaints, please pull the bell"
"Thank you sus"
"The same"
After Sister Gina came out, there were only Ali and Litha in the room. Litha, who was curious, immediately asked Ali.
"Mas, this is completely unexpected. I have a caesarean section like a referral letter from Dr. Angga. The princess also said the same thing. What about the cost of operation? Definitely expensive. We save money to build a house, right? But our baby is important too."
"Don't mind much deck. I got a bonus from the boss. It is quite possible to make the cost of delivering a baby's grandpa".
"Alhamdulillah yes mas".
"Yes deck. It's noon now. Adek what do you want to eat? Buy it in the cafeteria later".
"It's not hungry. Just sleepy. Go to sleep. Tomorrow morning do not forget to call home mbak Neli to tell father, mother and Lidya".
"Yes deck."
Litha then slept soundly in the gurney. He was really tired after riwa riwi.
