Day + 198 : Enjoy Your Life

Photo : My birthday'celebration at Hospital SJMC

I am fine today.

It has been two weeks since I came back to work officially. AH Tee (my boss) and Pornchai (our Regional Sales Manager) are very caring person, they are OK for me to enjoy life in office first before involve too much in the office work.

Before I was sick, I considered myself one of the hardworking staff in the company. I owed my family members a lot of family hours. Now I am the most relaxing staff in the company. It is time to pay back now. I am spending more time doing things together with my kids.

Now, in whatever circumstances, I learn to enjoy my life. I gave a real life account of my post bone marrow transplant experience through my blog. Most of you would agree that the transplant was challenging ( I have multiple admissions to hospital due to infections and I was almost gone during one of the emergency admission). However, I also enjoy life in the ward amidst the treatment; watching video, listening to music, celebrating my birthday, reading novels, writing blog, surfing nets, doing exercises, talking to the nurses and etc. To All, I hope when you encounter challenges in life or work, you also be able to enjoy life.

My blood counts check last week show all the results is back to normal level. I gained 2+kg weight. I am 50kg, my next target is 60kg by end year. I will have to eat more and more

Day +109 : Tea Break

I am fine today. I have asked Teck Ann sent me to SJMC for PICC pipe flushing.

After that we have a tea break at the nearby Indian Restaurant. This is the first time I have a piece of tossai and a cup of ginger tea after the transplant. The taste is good. Enjoy every much.

My current weight drop to about 47kg, from 52kg. I am struggling to bring up the weight. The nutritionist suggest to take more milk, cheese, more frequent meal. I loss more calorie than I consume. My BMI index is 16.8 ( kg/m^2) , the normal range suppose to be 22+/-2. I am underweight by almost 20%. The target weigh is 62kg.

The slimming center charge thousand ringgit to loose few kg of weigh. In my case, one infections have caused me to lose 5kg. Jan 08, I stayed in hospital for about 15 days.
