How My Op Went

Wow, it has been a tough 5 days.... though initially that it would be a simple op....

For those who don't know, sorry for did not informing earlier.....

I went for a tonsil extraction and nose channel clearing on the 19th, last Wed.

The day went roughly like this:

7am: Warded into Sunway Medical Centre.
8am: Was put on some sleeping pills....felt slightly drowsy
9.30am: Wheeled into operating theatre to wait
approx 10.30am: put on operating table....give some anasthetic....and KNOCKED out!

approx 12.30pm: woke up with a terrible SORE Throat and blocked nose

For the rest of Wed and Thurs, had to breathe through my mouth as my nose was completely blocked with tubes and gauze, to stop bleeding of nose clearing op (called "cauterisation" or something). My throat was so dry and painful, it was a miserable two days.

Well, the presence of wife, SS and my parents, in laws and brothers helped very much, also the appearence of good friends.....

On Friday morn, I thought I was able to be discharged, but after the doctor removed the gauze from my nose, we discovered there was still bleeding.... had to stuff it with more gauze and extended one more day for observation.

Anyway, I am back home now but still partially bed ridden, and cannot speak much yet, still groggy and on medication...... and on a very strict "soft diet".

Thank you all for your well wishes again. Hope to be well on my feet again in a week or so....

Thanks to all

Dear all,
Thanks so much for all your prayers, well wishes, and surprise visits at the hospital.
For those that came, Sivin & family, Anna, Poh Lyn, Eric, and my family that stuck by me.... I love you all....:)

You made my ordeal so much more bearable.

To those in LG, thanks for your prayers, appreciate it VERY much, guys!

Operation OPERATION!

Tomorrow, I should be going for my tonsilitis operation..... just a minor surgery, many tell me, but I guess unconsciously, I am a bit anxious about the whole thing....healthwise, it should help me have a healthier life..... I can get a bit of rest as well..... just want to lift this up to God....

Pray for me yah?

Will update once I am done.... :)

1st LIFE Group Meet 2005

Yesterday was the first meeting for Giving Tree LIFE Group from BLC for 2005.... last week we did not meet due to Tsunami Aid Day that we had on Saturday....had a fun meet....

Paul and Joanne joined us, and all of us were there.....

We had a fun time remembering what we have learnt from the books of Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers and Deuteronomy from 2004....then we did a quick recap of the main themes in the 5 books by going through the book "See Through the Scriptures" by Harry Wendt.... really refreshing was to start 2005 as we looked at the Word and also encouraged one another to read and dig into the Word of God....looking forward to a great year ahead....

God bless....
