Back Again...


Well I guess we've taken some sort of break from blogging over the past week...

Since Jo's discharge from NUH last Friday evening, things have been going quite fine so far. Our next appointment with the docs would be on 25 October - a little long we felt. We'll see what we can do to bring this forward sometime next week, God willing. Please continue to pray for good results.

Also, interestingly the angiogram tube insertion was really quite small as I observe the tiny 3-4mm incision on Jo's upper right thigh. Pretty amazing. Jo was walking slowly all of last week for fear of aggravating the wound.

Last Tuesday we went by TTSH for her follow up visit with the ENT and doc commented after the nose scope that all was clear there. Thank God for that!

She had craving for Katsu-don and so we ended up at Tonkichi at the Suntec "Food Alley" - the circus area below the Fountain of Wealth. Again we over ate and arrrghhh.

We've stopped the TCM appointments last week and probably for the coming week for now. Think it'll be good not to take too much additional stuff just for now and let the liver do what it can.

Jo's appetite is still the same...low. She complained of further pains to the rib area since Wednesday and that's why I really want to push for an earlier appointment with the docs. If the results aren't good then we wouldn't have to delay in considering other treatment options. Time is of the essence now.

Glad that the haze situation is getting better. That allowed me for another night ride from West Coast to Tuas with the usual bunch. Started off 8:30pm last evening and ended back at midnight. Total trip distance of 51.14km. Had a great stop-over at a friend's office with food provided for...decadent :)

Hey Jo! It's Philo... remember? Bumped into Kim earlier at East Coast Park and heard this not-too-good news. But so glad to hear you're most positive and fighting ahead with God by your side. Like my son said today, "I'll ask Jesus to blow the haze away,", I'll ask him tonite in my prayers to "blow your pain away and make you well." Promise to arrange with May in a couple of weeks' time when I'm back from biz trip, to meet up for a drink or something. It's been such a long time!
