Today Joel woke up early in time for school! Yippee, he got swimming class today...must be very happy. He is really improving and enjoying each time he dipped into the water with only arm float and ankle weight to help him balance. No need to hold him at all! Initially i was quite hesitant and worried to let go of him, afraid he might dip his head into the water...slowly, with the guidance of the coach from the school, we slowly let go of him and allow him to flow freely with the water.
Oh yes, i accompanied mum to see Dr. Tan KL at AMK ave 10 wif rgds to her swollen wrist. Luckily there wasn't a big crowd. After viewing the x-ray film, the doc told us that it due to osteoporois (similar problem as her knee...GU(3) CI(4)).. think this the loss of bone. She was given a jab to relieve the pain, the the result was 99.9% immediate. I mean she was able to move her hands freely without pain. Remarkable isn't it? Sametime, she had jabs on both knees and a BU(3) ZHEN(1) as well, altogether 4 jabs at one time. Oh my god! I am so afraid of needle since young and have to face the wall when the prickling takes place. I cud vividly hear mum ouching ouching.....my hands turn cold.
Mum tot since I was already there, might as well ask the doc to take a look at my back ache etc. Yeah, my tail bone has been killing me all these while. Sometime it's so painful that brushing teeth becomes a tough job...so i decided to see the doc too (but i told mum by hook by crook, no NEEDLES for me)....and I kept mum out of the room to stop her from getting the doc to jab me...hehehe... she guai guai stayed outside.
Having talked to the doc about my situation ( wif a brief story of our situation about joel), doc felt that I need a jab to relieve the nerves of my back, and after few rounds of taichi....i surrendered! I plucked up courage to agree. Tot the jab was at the meaty buttock like my mum but mine was close to the spinal. OUCH!! I clenched my fist tight...and was over the next minute. Hmm...not that bad leh..still tolerable! BELIEVE it or not, it was 99.9999% immediate. before that, just sitting down was enough to kill me and my bone. Wah, after the jab, the pain was like taken away immediately. I was given some medicine to relieve the pain when necessary. What an achievement man! When I told Jim and family about the jab, they were ASTONISHED! Since when I dare to jab.....they knew me! Since mum got 4 at one time, how can i be so lousy rite?
It rained heavily this afternoon....the weather is very cool! Good to sleep but not good for my clothes...no sunshine. Oh, stop being paranoid about your clothes not getting enough sunshine again...
This morning, 7gu left for taipei for a company trip. She called us from the airport b4 she checked in. She just wanted to talk to Joel...i know she really sayang Joel very much. though its only a 4 days trip, think she will still miss Joel.
Oh yes, mum told me that everyone is going for the vietnam trip (think almost the entire BUN family)....really sad that i cannot join them. I really wish to go but i can't. I really wish to join the fun each time the family gathers. I love to play with the children. Though I have 1000 and one reasons to be sad, each time with the chidren, I am happy. And yet, my boy can't be like the rest, played freely with me. It's so tormenting isn't it? On the other hand, really happy that my family can travel in a group, this is a rare opportunity! Think its going to be fun, guys! Dun 4get my share of presents, k?
Jim has gone to attend a BALL at Ritz Carlton tonight. He was nominated by the company to compete for the BEST RETAIL MANAGER organised by SRA (Spore Retail Association). We are very proud of him cos there were only 2 nominees out of the entire company. It's already a recognition of his hardwork and performance by the company. Whether or not he gets the title, it doesn't matter. Cos in the hearts of his customers, he is already the best retail manager. I could see the anxiety on his face when leaving the house for the ball. Take it easy, man!
Alright, that's for all now. Weep..weep, still got ironing to do before i can zzzZ. Good nite!
