Counting Down

(1)
It was a very hot beginning for summer here. Sweeting all over. Haze from the annual burning to commence farming season from the neighboring countries covered the city-state for a couple of days. Fortunately the temperature has dropped and the weather is a lot kinder now. And the haze has gone.

Few weeks ago, a friend brought me to renew my passport in JB. The Immigration officer took no less than 10 trials to get my fingerprint scanned properly. The fingerprint is becoming lighter, a side-effect of chemotherapy. The nurse told me some people's have totally vanished. The fingers has gone through some changes, first oily, with fingerprint fading, then the skin becomes very dry........JB is very near to my house, nowadays I do not frequent it though. Used to travel there for business, liked the sea-side road leading to the factory we visited regularly few years ago. Enjoyed too the food there.

Yesterday my wife accompanied me to the hospital to begin the last chemotherapy session. It was a great relief to arrive at this stage......Thank God that the side-effects were not so severe compared to many other patients. Blood test, 2hours of infusion, followed by 2 weeks of oral prescription.
Seeing the surgeon in 2 weeks to fix the date for one last operation.

Many thanks to those who keep praying for us. May God Bless you abundantly. Looking forwards to returning to office soon after the op.





Ps 30

2 LORD my God, I called to you for help,
   and you healed me.
3 You, LORD, brought me up from the realm of the dead;
   you spared me from going down to the pit.

詩 篇 30

 2 耶 和 华 ─ 我 的   神 啊 , 我 曾 呼 求 你 , 你 医 治 了 我 。
 3 耶 和 华 啊 , 你 曾 把 我 的 灵 魂 从 阴 间 救 上 来 , 使 我 存 活 , 不 至 於 下 坑 。
