Sharing Session: Berobat Kemana di Penang?

Halo semuanya,

It's been a while since i updated my blog, so i was quite away for some medical reason :(

Post kali ini akan berbahasa Indonesia ya, soalnya this post memang di dedikasiin untuk masyarakat Indonesia yang lagi cari informasi tentang berobat ke Penang. 

Jadi beberapa minggu lalu, mama aku mengeluhkan kalau dia sakit perut di sebelah kiri bawah, dimana sakitnya itu kadang bisa sampai tidak tertahankan sampai dia nangis dan guling-guling gitu. Posisinya adalah mama aku ini sudah pernah operasi pengangkatan rahim, jadi kami makin bingung sakitnya ini dari mana. Dari Lampung (my hometown), dia sudah masuk rumah sakit, dan dokter sudah ran a few tests and hasilnya lumayan normal.

Makanya, mama kami bawa ke Jakarta, secara anak-anaknya juga tinggal di Jakarta sini, jadi bawa deh ke beberapa rumah sakit swasta di Jakarta. Herannya adalah, diagnosa dokter beda-beda. Ada yang bilang ada kista di bagian perut kanan (padahal mama rasa sakit sebelah kiri), ada yang bilang tidak ada apa-apa hanya tegang otot, ada yang bilang mium. Jadi, dengan advise dari keluarga juga yang suka berobat ke Penang, kami berangkat ke Penang.

Nah, buat yang ga tau, ada flight direct Jakarta-Penang loh jadi tidak perlu transit-transit kalau memang sudah sakit kaya mama aku. Flight ini hanya ada satu kali sehari, by maskapai AirAsia. Harganya memang agak sedikit mahal, kira-kira dua kali lipat dari yang biasa. But mom was very sick, so we took it. The flight took two hours approximately, and yes we got delayed for half an hour. The ticket costed kurang lebih  3 juta per orang.

Mau ke rumah sakit mana?

Nah ini dia pertanyaan besarnya, untuk kalian yang tidak tau mau ke rumah sakit mana, ada kira-kira tujuh rumah sakit internasional di sana yang memiliki spesialisasi bidangnya masing-masing. Apa aja ya?

1. Penang Adventist Hospital

Penang Adventist Hospital lebih spesialisasi ke bagian Jantung dan Tulang. Katanya sih gitu, soalnya aku gak berobat ke sini. Jadi, kalau mau berobat jantung atau tulang, ada baiknya coba kesini dulu, tapi boleh juga sih ke rumah sakit lainnya juga.

2. Lam Wah Ee Hospital

Rumah Sakit Lam Wah Ee ini terbilang lumayan murah dibandingkan dengan rumah sakit lainnya, katanya sih begitu. Rumah sakit ini juga cukup terkenal dengan program implantasi bayi tabungnya. Ada banyak banget pasien dari Medan, Aceh, dan beberapa daerah di Indonesia yang berobat kesini dan merasa biaya yang dihabiskan tidak jauh berbeda sama di Indonesia. 

3. Loh Guan Lye 

Loh Guan Lye ini adalah rumah sakit yang lebih khusus ke kecantikan dan kanker. Rumah sakit ini juga terletak di jalan yang dekat dengan Island Hospital, jadi bisa cek sana cek sini dengan gampang untuk dapet second opinion.

4. RS Kanker Mount Miriam

Ada banyak pasien kanker stadium tinggi yang berobat ke rumah sakit ini, lalu bisa membaik, bahkan sembuh. Kalau memang tujuan kamu untuk cure kanker, boleh langsung dicoba kesini, karena spesialisasinya memang disitu, seperti Dharmais di Jakarta.

5. Pantai Hospital Penang

Rumah Sakit Pantai Hospital ini banyak menampung pasien jantung dan stroke. Letaknya agak sedikit terpencil jadi baiknya mungkin ketika bepergian keluar rumah sakit banyak beli makanan karena di sekitarnya ada kurang banyak makanan.

6. Island Hospital

Island Hospital Penang adalah salah satu rumah sakit umum di Island. RS ini katanya bisa mengobati berbagai jenis penyakit, itulah sebabnya kami akhirnya datang ke rumah sakit ini. Kami datang kesini juga karena untuk pergi ke dua dokter, Dr. Mah Siew Lee (Ob Gyn - Kandungan) dan Dr. Seow Eng Lok (Gastro-Intestine). A little warning though: Rumah Sakit ini katanya sih lebih mahal dari pada yang lainnya. Singkat cerita, mama had two operations: operasi appendix dan pengangkatan indung telur (ovarium) karena adanya kista di ovarium sebelah kiri. Kami menginap disana kurang lebih 3 hari dan biayanya mencapai RM 20,000 +-. Tapi kalau memang sembuh, yasudahlah it's a little price we should pay for the gift of wellness! Mom is currently in the process of final recovery and she's doing very well. A little review: di rumah sakit sini semuanya ditangani super cepat dan sigap. Mungkin itu kenapa pasiennya cepat sembuh juga karena semua proses dilaksanakan super cepat, gak molor-molor dan gak ditahan-tahan.

Dan masih ada lagi rumah sakit lainnya.

Hmm peeps i know this is not exactly a fashion or beauty post, but i just really felt the urge to help people to gain some information before they go out there so they wont be clueless. I have seen some people who came to the hospital knowing nothing, still asking around gatau apa-apa dan gatau kalau sakit apa harus kemana. This is the very least that i can do to help :)

Hope this post turns out useful for anyone in need ya, and i will also still post some food adventure session that i had during my quick stay in Penang soon, so i will keep you posted. Be healthy peeps soalnya sakit itu mahal :D

Bye for now, Felicia Marcellina

A Hearty Letter of Deep Thoughts in: Grand Hill Hotel Puncak

It's one of those nights when you really do not feel like sleeping, 

and a troll of thoughts just come into your mind at once. 

So i have never really made a hearty post ( a post that actually describes how i feel), like a 'curhat' post, but this time i actually am in the mood to do that. So please bear with me.

To the guy that i know am reading this, i would just like to say thank you. Thank you for all the times that we went through together. Thank you for keeping up with my mood swings, for keeping silent and not answering back whenever i throw you with crazy non-stop cuss, for sending me stupid pictures to laugh over, for staying whenever i tell you to leave, for teaching me to be independent, for not spoiling me like other rich guys to their baby doll girlfriends, for not being mad when i ignore you (70% of the time), for singing me to sleep with all those music, for always trying to find topics whenever i do not want to talk, for sending me flowers and food lol, for taking me to random places to chill when i need to, for filling in the silence when i keep quiet, for always mystically finding out whenever my mood is down, for reminding me the important things in life, and one of the most heroic and unselfish act a man can do, staying away obediently as told to when i was with somebody else, and coming right back when i decided to part him hurtfully.

And, for all the full of anger and tears moments we shared. 

And now, for the sorry part.

I am sorry.

For getting mad at you for no reason, i was just scared of losing you. For being so curious, i just wanted to understand life from your point of view. For letting out hurtful sayings and retarded cusses, sometimes my head does not really want to get independent, and all i want is to be relying on you, but you teach me not to. For not picking up your calls or replying your messages, i simply want you to come meet me. For getting your heart ship-wrecked with my wrecking-mood-swing-balls, i did not realize i was hurting you.

And on top of all, i am sorry i did not say yes, i was afraid our social status would not match.

I am a country girl coming from a small and hearty city, was not looking for any love match to upgrade my social status, you are an old player in the big 'ol city. I was too afraid to answer the many twirling questions in my head, 'would you be able to visit my small city and feel comfortable in your stay? will i ever 'fit in' in your family and vice versa? am i the lucky girl that can help you in your running empire?'

And now that things are well-sorted. I just want you to know that i am rooting for your happiness, with or without me. You will definitely always be my walkie-talkie, my human diary, my personal mood-detector, and of course my chaffeur ;) I love you best and cheers to single/attached life!

Hunting Paradise: Nicole's Kitchen & Lounge

I guess we all need little retreats from life every once in a while, and i choose to make mine a paradise hunting session each time. Let us say i'm following the crowds, visiting the famous places and trying to find the hidden gems in each area along the way.

So my family and i were initially looking for places that are cool (as in temperature) to chill in. Therefore we drove all the way around Bandung and Puncak area, explained why i did not miss this Nicole's Kitchen & Lounge, which was quite talked about as one of the famous places in Bogor.

The place was chill, mainly decorated in white, which brought some elegance to the place itself. It was windy when we reached there, thankful enough it was not raining in the city of rain for us to enjoy the venue enough.

There were cute 'huts' like the ones you'd perhaps see as romantic places to hang in with your loved ones, with mattresses you can lay on.

And then there was a dome as well in the front, and with perfect lighting, the white nuance will lead you to questioning whether or not you were in heaven.

As for the closings, they have beautiful corners and spots for perfect white OOTD pictures. So, get your gears on if you come visit. We honestly did not eat much, we ordered some wings and three drinks to munch on. The taste and prices were okay, we spent around 150K for three girls. Worth the pictures a lot, though.

Let's say we are our father's Charlie Angels?

Staycation at JW Marriott Hotel Jakarta: part 1.

I know the name JW Marriott wouldn't sound unfamiliar in your ears, and yes, this is the JW Marriott, 5 stars hotel i am talking about.

Located in the heart of Jakarta, in the Bundaran Mega Kuningan, this hotel gives you the easiest access anywhere. A few bars and dine places are well-situated nearby this hotel so fret not if you'd like to grab more munchies other than the signature dishes from the hotel itself.

These photos are taken by the pool side. The pool itself is not very big, but still so finely treated as a private pool, where you can relax and feel yourself at home easily. The green environment is well re-lived despite the business of the city - all the traffic and sort.

and if you'd only like to sit back and relax, instead of dipping in, these lovely benches are the ultimate answer. Why won't you sit and enjoy the vibe with me then?

Oh and if you are looking for something more exploring, take a walk along the path around the park area next to the gazebo. and snap some photos while doing so, i mean.

Well, that's only just part 1.

Come back if you would let me share you my part 2, about the room and stuff.

Where:

JW Marriott Hotel

Jalan DR Ide Anak Agung Gde Agung Kav E.1.2 No. 1 & 2 Kawasan Mega Kuningan, East Kuningan, Setiabudi, South Jakarta City, Special Capital Region of Jakarta

Budget:

The hotel rate varies during holidays and regular days, but as for the rough estimates accross room types, you can go as low as IDR 1.5mio to IDR 3mio. One room is entitled to two breakfast packages.

Tips:

Do explore every corner of the hotel to find best snaps, and add spa package for an ultimate relaxing getaway. Picking up food delivery is only available at the very front lobby so make sure you wait in the right lobby :)

Thank you to JW Marriott for the lovely stay.
