I had a sad feeling a day before my birthday. It would probably be my loneliest and saddest birthday I was going to have.
It’s been a long time since I cried tears……….So, I cried when I was doing Isya’ prayers. I shared my feelings with ALLAH. No one was there to hold me, or to be my shoulder to cry on. Only ALLAH.
Then, my eyes swollen, but I was relieved. ALLAH will always take care of me.
On my birthday, I was in Pantai Indah Kapuk Hospital since we have been participating in the Spinal Workshop. The situation wasn’t good. We were waiting our ten Operating Microscopes to be releases from the Customs. It’s been 3 days, no positive progress yet.
How would we face Dr. Alfred and all neurosurgeons there if we couldn’t provide the OPMIs?
Damn……..At the end of the day, we still couldn’t get it out!
Fortunately, Dr. Alfred were really understanding. He still invited us to the dinner.
So, I told the guys, that even we had a bad day, we need to enjoy ourselves and celebrate my birthday there. They didn’t know that it was my birthday and they said sorry that I had to go through the situation. Hey, we are a team!
(Pretending that it was my birthday candle)
So we went to Cilantro, the restaurant on 46th Floor of BNI tower! The food was nice, and the neurosurgeons there were really having fun. We didn’t know that Dr. Alfred can play the drum and Dr. Endro can play piano.
Amazing.
Once again, Alhamdulillah…..YOU gave me a good birthday……
