Meaningfully Occupied!
This December I am, for the first time in years, free from having to go under the knife!
This December I didn't have to face any of the following:
No more surgery!
No more hospital stays!
No more intravenous drips!
No more desperate search for elusive veins so as to set up intravenous drips for surgery!
No more awful smells in freezing operating theatres!
No more long, uncertain hours of waiting -on an empty stomache, cold and starving! - for the medical attendants to come upstairs to the ward to take me down to the OT!
No more nausea and vomitting after the surgery!
No more painkillers and other post-surgery drugs that knocks the senses out of you...turning you into a sleepy zombie!
No more plain and uninteresting hospital food! (except for those times when I enjoyed each and every meal at KKH!)
No more midnight temperature and blood pressure measurement by nurses....no more interruptions to my beauty-sleep!
And, best of all....I am able to sleep in my own bed, in my own "ragged" and faded but comfortable pj, with my own comforter and blanket, my own unique scent on my own pillow, right next to my own beloved one!
I am so thankful that all those surgical procedures are now all behind me!
Except for one more minor one - I hope, it's going to be minor - for to remove the screw from my left leg, next year!
This December, after waiting on the sidelines for the past 3 years, I am able to sign up for, and attend the course I have been longing to do!
From 28 Nov till 9 Dec, I successfully completed the Orton-Gillingham Course conducted by DAS! My dream come true! Now I am better able to help my students! The hours used up during my school holidays have never been more meaningfully spent!
Thank you, Lord, for this opportunity to learn from this Orton-Gillingham course! Help me to use the skills and knowledge I have learned to help many others. Make me a channel of your blessings!
Thank you, Lord, thank you for blessing me with all those friends whom I have met by your divine appointment during the course of my 2 weeks spent at DAS - Tsui Mei, Joyce, Shenmee, Elizabeth, Alice, Ruzita, etc, etc, etc! Bless Farid (and Farisha) and his family!
