Home Sweet Home!

Its so nice to be important but its more important to be nice! Trini Lopez














Enjoying the award-winning porridge in the comfort of his own home. We are singing " It is WELL with my soul". Elder Yoke Fooi sms-ed to ask "What to pray for?" In my euphoric state I have almost forgotten that!
Firstly we would like to thank God that LG can come home to rest for a few days before going for the next round of chemo. Secondly pray for a good match of blood sample to be taken from his 6 siblings. ( Thank God for having big families- it is times like this when blood is thicker than water). Finally pray that he will go into complete remission before the next stage of his treatment--- allogenic stem cell transplant. LG reported that so far Kenny and Tian Teck has responded to his sms for blood samples. May God bless them for their promptness in allaying his concerns.

This is our latest toy. ( Lay Suan borrowed it from her brother-in-law Jack) It is a powerful juice extractor.This Green Star Gold Juicer has a slow rotational speed  which results in a dramatic reduction in the rate of oxidation. The precious nutrients and enzymes survive much longer. Not only is your juice more vital and energizing, but you can also store it overnight with minimal loss of nutritional value.Vegetable Juices Last for Over Three Days! Fruit Juices Last Even Longer!
As domestication is a big adjustment for me, Phuay Hua ( our sister-in-christ who has been most helpful since last year) has to buy  beetroot, zuchinni and baby bittergourd to show me what they look like. Nevertheless I shall strive to be a quick  learner even though I suspect the learning curve will be a steep one for a caregiver.

The clouds of sadness seems a little remote today as life seems to settle to the usual Sunday routine. Visit from our dear friends --- The Singams and Carol--- See the strawberry cheesecake ( yet to be perfected) -- which is really from zero to hero ( it is actually edible)

 

The Naval Welfare Unit wants to get some stuff for LG--- as he specifically wants Waitrose organic food from Three Sixty Market Place@ ION Orchard ( Level 4 )--- I thought it is best LG goes personally to choose what he wants.

Then we are off to Raffles Hotel for dinner @Royal China---- birthday celebration for those born in December!

May your lives be filled with little celebrations of happiness and kindness surround you all through your days and each moment of the year. May your every prayer be answered and may your troubles be left far behind you.Wishing all four of you a Blessed Birthday!  From LG and LKThank you  very much to Third Uncle and Aunty who fought to pay for the bill. In fact he said he would be free to attend if he paid for the dinner. Now you know why third uncle and aunty will always be invited as they were also the earliest to arrive. As Punctuality is the politeness of kings hence  it is befitting for the King to pick up the bill @ Royal China!
