During the wait for my report, I still continued my normal life even through the medicine can't fully remove the problem I'm facing at the moment. However, the medicine did wake me up for going to work. Normally I would be late for an hour, with this medicine I managed to wake up late for 5 - 10 minutes late. Besides working life, I started to lead a charity organization to help out in other charity events. In the past, I would mostly take part in a certain team for charity until one of the team leader had to migrate to another country, so it was decided for me to be a temporary leader till everything is sorted out. 1 week before promised duration for my report to be out, the doctor called and requested me collect my report as soon as possible. Without delay, after my work I went to meet my doctor for my report.
When I entered the doctor’s room, I saw two more doctors around. At first sight, I thought they are just trainees. After formal introductions from my doctor, only did I notice my problem is not a normal issue anymore. The first doctor who explained to me about my unusual illness was a brain specialist. After 10 - 15 minute of explanations, I'm just able to grasp the surface about certain parts of my brain having something, causing it to affect my sleeping hours.
After that brain specialist's explanation, I have another specialist do some explanation for my situation, A Cancer specialist. The main cause of my situation is due to the part of my brain that had mutated and become a brain tumor. However, this tumor will not result in my death or rather it will put me into a permanent sleep; or in the worst scenario, a coma. As this tumor is placed in a peculiar part of my brain which renders an operation impossible to remove it.
After all explanations, I had no expression on my face but shock. I suddenly feel that my world is so terribly empty and quiet until I accidentally knocked down my doctor's pencil case which was near my hand, I was brought back to reality. I had nothing to ask besides what to do to cure my illness and how long I can still live as a normal man.
