Prelude to a Long Weekend

The call I received this morning just when I was about to hit the shower pushed the number of admissions to above 20. Even though it was Chinese New Year, the admissions kept all piling in. I went home after midnight last night only to be called in again with an ICU admission which took me into the early hours.

I was thankful that I at least got three hours of uninterrupted sleep until ingot the morning call.

I was still in the middle of my morning rounds when I had to stop. I need a quick drink. I just couldn't continue on. A 15 minutes break should not hurt anyone.

I imagine that the rounds would take me to lunch. Then, I would have some time to wind down this afternoon before the undoubtedly flurry of calls from the ward. I wouldn't be surprised if I had to get in again later tonight.

I'd better enjoy the break as much as I can then. Cheers!‎
