Friday, continued …
"If you continue to make progress, we may even be in a position that we can release you sometime next week . Given the progress that you are making, we will be ensuring that you spend increasing time out of bed each day, even if it is simply on a chair or the couch . We also will be moving you from the hospital bed into a normal bed before discharge, despite it being inconvenient for hospital staff . "
"Once you are discharged, we will continue to monitor you to make sure that there are no ongoing complications . Going back to your discharge, we will need to ensure appropriate nursing staff is in place before it will occur . CEO Hou we can supply you with details of highly competent nursing agencies that can arrange appropriate nursing care for Madam Hou . . . "
"Dr Lang, my wife's sister is a qualified nurse in Australia and is on her way here for a few weeks . She will arrive on Sunday or Monday . The following weekend, her brother who is in the final year of his nursing degree will also be coming, to assist . And while it is not guaranteed, her sister who is a specialist emergency room nurse if going to try and come with her brother as well . I think between her family, myself and our staff we will be able to manage . "
"You did not tell me Rosemary is coming…"
"Given the warnings, I am worried to tell you …"
"Rebecca is as well" squealed Anna . "Oh My God, what we could do…"
"I dread to think about it …"
"Madam Hou, on discharge, you will only be on crutches for short periods of time, slowly building up . Otherwise you will be in a wheelchair, because we will be worried for a few weeks about impacts from your head injury on your balance . Additionally, with Dr Chen's help, we are almost finalised the counselling regime, as she wants to prevent adding to your issues, with you potentially developing Post Traumatic Stress Disorder . That should be resolved early next week, but as an interim measure she will be in each day until your discharge to monitor you . "
Dr Lang paused, then continued "The last thing, and I believe we need to discuss it now . The consulting gynaecologist . . . " pointing to one of the medical staff across the room " . . . has already indicated no s*xual relations while the case is on, as your head injury could cause unexpected impacts . "
"Further, once the cast is off, you will for a few more months have to be careful, not only using contraception but not being too wild and adventurous with your s*xual activities . A pregnancy too soon, could be highly risky for you . Once we are happy that there are no changes in your test results you will be given the OK to stop using contraception . "
Hou Yi and Anna looked directly at each other, and they both noticed that the other had gone bright red in the face . It was so embarrassing to have their s*x life being discussed as bluntly as Dr Lang was discussing it .
Dr Lang, in observing Hou Yi and Anna's reactions decided that he needed to get everyone out of here before it became more embarrassing for everyone . He asked, "Do you have any questions of any of us?"
Hou Yi responded "No" and Anna just shook her head . Neither however could look Dr Lang in the eye .
Dr Lang from their response, confirmed his view that they were embarrassed about the direction of the conversation . As the medical staff were leaving, he said "We will leave you alone . If you have any questions, at any time, simply let the medical staff know and someone will come and speak to you . Otherwise we will have another review of your progress on Monday . "
With that Dr Lang, stood up and turned around walking back following the other medical professionals out of the room . Once they were gone Anna looked at Hou Yi and said, "That was embarrassing . "
"But not unexpected given what they walked in on . "
"Yi, you have a dirty mind . "
"Well, it was not just me engaged … . "
"Damn it Yi, your mind is not in a good place and you are dragging me down there . "
"Well given …"
"Yi" squeaked Anna, and they then both began to laugh .
