My childhood memory


I want to share something about my childhood. It was happened when I was 5 years old, while we are playing at the bathroom with my childhood friend, we are so enjoy playing and spilling water to each other when suddenly my childhood friend name “Joyce” pushed me without my knowing because of that I bumped in the floor and it hurt me so bad, but because of my childish attitude I stand up quickly and I just laugh and play again with them.

When I got home I noticed that my lower right side of the belly is aching but I did not tell it right away to my mother. I did not tell it to her because I am afraid that she will get angry on me. After a week it becomes malignant that it made me cry every time I feel the pain. My mother asks me why I keep on crying, because of that I confess it all to my mother.

My confession to my mother made her and my father worried about me. So the next morning my mother and I went to a clinic and in the clinic I undergo general check up, after that I was so shocked because my mother keeps on crying that I think I am going to die. I keep on asking her what the result was but she did not tell it to me on what were doctor’s findings.

On the next day we went back to the clinic to take another check up. The clinic was on the 4th floor of the building when I and my mother taking our steps to the clinic my lower right side of the belly start aching again that I could not step on the ladder so my mother decided to carry me on her back so I could reach to the clinic.

When we are in arrive in the clinic the doctor ask me questions about what symptoms I have, when it started, and what was happening before the pain began. He presses on my belly to see where the pain is. He takes my temperature to see if I have a fever, which is a sign of infection. He also takes blood tests on me to look for signs of infection.
After that the doctor told my mother that I am suffering an appencitis and he remind my mother that if my lower belly will start aching on the next day I have to sent immediately to the hospital to undergo an operation. So the next day while I am watching my favorite cartoon movie my lower abdomen starts aching, my parents immediately take me to the hospital.


When we already arrived in the hospital the nursed put on the dextrose and then they take me on the operating room while I am going to the operating room I saw two nuns and they offer me chocolates and pray over me because of that I feel calm. When I already inside the operating room the doctor ask me if I will let my parents to enter inside the operating room, I told him no because I don’t want them to see me and get worry about me.

After my operation when I already in my bedroom I hear noises that made me to woke up, I hear lots of fire crackers and I realized that it was already New Years Eve. That is why that event was one of my unforgettable experiences in my life.
