+312 : Numb

My hand and foot are becoming more numb, still can't fix this problem after more than 6 months.

I think GVHD also affected my vision, it make the vision slightly blur.
These are typical complain I make to Dr.Alan

I have stopped the morning exercise for the past two weeks , Now I find a new exercise, WII - video game.

Day +309 : Mask

I am fine today. Just lack of energy.

I help Xin Yi to tie the rubber band on the mask. Her homework today.

Nowadays, Xin Yi call me frequently, there are time I am unable to answer her calls, she will sms me to make sure I get her message. Her important message is, Daddy ,pick me up at 6:00pm, be on time.

Day +307 : Stanley, Happy Birthday ！

山东，生日快乐


I am fine today.





Stanley called me last Friday, saying one of his colleague confirm with H1N1, he prefer not to attend the birthday celebration with me. I supposed to organise a small birthday party for Stanley this afternoon, alternatively I asked Xin Yi to send a message to Uncle Stanley's facebook wishing him a Happy Birthday.

Day +306 : Dizzy

I am fine.
This morning , while learning Yuan Ji Qi Qong, I suddenly feel dizzy. I just take a break and quietly sit down. The situation did not improve, I was unconscious for a few minutes, luckily they observed it, and give me a hand. Chew Loeng, the person in charge for Yuan Ji in Wawasan offered to send me back.

I think the dizziness was due to low sugar level, as I don't take any drink prior the morning exercises. This is the second time I encountered such problem. First time, I phoned Ah Siew to brought me some Milo , it work pretty well.

Here is something I loved to read when I have bad day.

If you woke up this morning

with more health than illness,

you are more blessed than the million

who won't survive the week.

If you have never experience the danger of battle,

the loneliness of imprisonment,

the agony of torture or the pangs of starvation,

you are ahead of 20 million people around the world.

If you attend a church meeting without fear of harassment,

arrest, torture, or death,

you are more blessed than almost three billion people in the world.

If you have food in your refrigerator,

clothes on your back, a roof over your head and a place to sleep,

you are richer than 75% of this world.

If you have money in the bank, in your wallet,

and spare change in a dish someplace,

you are among the top 8% of the world's wealthy.

If your parents are still married and alive,

you are very rare, especially in the United States.

If you hold up your head with a smile on your face and are truly thankful,

you are blessed because the majority can,

but most do not If you can hold someone's hand,

hug them or even touch them on the shoulder,

you are blessed because you can offer God's healing touch.

If you can read this, you are more blessed

than over two billion people in the world that cannot read anything at all.

You are so blessed in ways you may never even know.

Day +304 : Tired

Today I feel tired and breathless, one of the way to tackle this issue , is doing things at a very slow pace. I have absent the morning Qi Gong for the past one week.
Besides this, my vision seem to be affected as well, hard to focus.

Yesterday, one of my colleague's mother pass away, succumb to cancer as well. Last week, Osman gone due to big C, so life sometimes is really uncertain, you don;t know when you will be called. Take time to relax, spend more time with family.......

Day +303 ; Follow Up

My bloods count today on 25 August.Readings in square bracket [] are result from previous test.

Haemoglobin (HB) = 14.4[14.4] (Normal 13-18)
Platelet = 150[132] (Normal 150-450)
Total White Blood Count (WBC) = 13.3 [9.8] (Normal 4 - 11)

The Platelet have back to normal, however the Total WBC is elevated further from 10 to 13. I knew this due to steroid drug I am taking. I asked doctor what will the long term effect, the answer is the bone will become weaker. However based on the current dosage and the duration, it shall not impose this effect for the time being. Recommend me to consume calcium as supplement.

I told Dr Alan my current major issue is breathless especially at the morning time. Dr said there is no quick way to fix this, time will fix it. Expect 3 to 9 months, things will settle down.

Then I pose second question, my physical strength seem to fluctuate , sometimes good , sometimes extreme tired. How can I improve this ? EAT WELL & SLEEP WELL, and don't forget to do exercise, walking will help to improve my breathing.

My weight is still around 51kg. My plan to push up the weight to 57kg by year end need to be revised.

Day +303 : New Neighbour

My new neighbour Mr Wong just started to renovate his house, after buying the house > 1 years. He gave me a new present, a brickwall. The mild steel grill fencing was dismantled and replaced with brickwall.

Proper Work - Footing with formwork (Normally, contactor just dig a hole and dumb the concrete without proper formwork in place)








New Brickwall share with Mr Wong
