In-laws

A couple drove down a country road for several miles, not saying a word.

An earlier discussion had led to an argument and neither of them wanted to concede their position.

As they passed a barnyard of mules,goats, and pigs,the husband asked sarcastically,"Relatives of yours?"

"Yep," the wife replied, "in-laws."

Dana Lu Blessing

A cold March wind danced around the dead of night in Dallas as the doctorwalked into the small hospital room of Diana Blessing.
She was still groggy from surgery.

Her husband, David, held her hand as they braced themselves for the latest news.

That afternoon of March 10, 1991, complications had forced Diana, only 24-weeks pregnant, to undergo an emergency Cesarean to deliver couple's new daughter, Dana Lu Blessing.

At 12 inches long and weighing only one pound nine ounces, they already knew she was perilously premature.
Still, the doctor's soft words dropped like bombs.
"I don't think she's going to make it," he said, as kindly as he could.
"There's only a 10-percent chance she will live through the night, and even then, if by some slim chance she does make it, her future could be a very cruel one."

Numb with disbelief, David and Diana listened as the doctor described the devastating problems Dana would likely face if she survived.

She would never walk, she would never talk, she would probably be blind, and she would certainly be prone to other catastrophic conditions from cerebral palsy to complete mental retardation, and on and on.

"No! No!" was all Diana could say.
She and David, with their 5-year-old son Dustin, had long dreamed of the day they would have a daughter to become a family of four.
Now, within a matter of hours, that dream was slipping away.
But as those first days passed, a new agony set in for David and Diana.
Because Dana's underdeveloped nervous system was essentially 'raw', the lightest kiss or caress only intensified her discomfort, so they couldn't even cradle their tiny baby girl against their chests to offer the strength of their love. All they could do, as Dana struggled alone beneath the ultraviolet light in the tangle of tubes and wires, was to pray that God would stay close to their precious little girl.

There was never a moment when Dana suddenly grew stronger.
But as the weeks went by, she did slowly gain an ounce of weight here and an ounce of strength there.

At last, when Dana turned two months old, her parents were able to hold her in their arms for the very first time. And two months later, though doctors continued to gently but grimly warn that her chances of surviving, much less living any kind of normal life, were next to zero, Dana went home from the hospital, just as her mother had predicted.

Five years later, when Dana was a petite but feisty young girl with glittering gray eyes and an unquenchable zest for life. She showed no signs whatsoever of any mental or physical impairment.
Simply, she was everything a little girl can be and more. But that happy ending is far from the end of her story.

One blistering afternoon in the summer of 1996 near her home in Irving, Texas, Dana was sitting in her mother's lap in the bleachers of a local ball park where her brother Dustin's baseball team was practicing.
As always, Dana was chattering nonstop with her mother and several other adults sitting nearby when she suddenly fell silent.

Hugging her arms across her chest, little Dana asked, "Do you smell that?"
Smelling the air and detecting the approach of a thunderstorm, Diana replied, "Yes, it smells like rain."

Dana closed her eyes and again asked, "Do you smell that?"

Once again, her mother replied, "Yes, I think we're about to get wet. It smells like rain."

Still caught in the moment, Dana shook her head, patted her thin shoulders with her small hands and loudly announced, "No, it smells like Him.
It smells like God when you lay your head on His chest."

Tears blurred Diana's eyes as Dana happily hopped down to play with the other children.
Before the rains came, her daughter's words confirmed what Diana and all the members of the extended Blessing family had known, at least in their hearts, all along.

During those long days and nights of her first two months of her life, when her nerves were too sensitive for them to touch her, God was holding Dana on His chest and it is His loving scent that she remembers so well.

"I can do all things in Him who strengthens me."

This morning when the Lord opened a window to Heaven, He saw me, and He asked: "My child, what is your greatest wish for today?" I responded:

"Lord please, take care of the person who is reading this message, their family and their special friends. They deserve it and I love them very much" The love of God is like the ocean, you can see its beginning, but not its end.

Footnote: EVERYTIME I read this one, I shed a tear, and remember that in life, there is such a thing called MIRACLE. Hope this blesses your heart.-PK-

Cheerio!!!

of Friendships!

This morning on Mix fm Shaz had this topic on friendships, and whether... as adults we're able to meet friends and go beyond being acquaintances....

hmmmmm quite ironic actualli, considering the night before I had pondered about this... hmmmm

Well, for me, I think it is possible, despite all our mad mad hectic schedule day in day out, slogging at work and trying to balance family life (if you haf a family...) or your extra curricular activities (religion/clubs/etc etc...), IF... if we all put in effort to it.

most of my close friends are friends I know within the past 3/4 years lar. Of course, like wat Shaz mentioned earlier, it'd be a tough process, compared to childhood friends whereby they practically know everything about you...New acquaintances.. it's like you haf to start the whole process again.. spending time getting to know their characters..their families... bla bla bla....

But... I'd vouch for that anytime... It's interesting lar... Just put in a bit more effort and a little bit more love!!!!

*belch..why am I in such lovey dovey mood la... Something's wrong. Ahaks!!!*

bah! humbug!

Travelling to office sucked this morning... plus.. The Middle Ring Road closed... I suspect there's a crack. (or has it collapsed...)
Wait for viewtru to come out wif his verdict... Ahaks... Where the heck is he lar... disappeared dunno go where wif Hot Babe oredi....

Short post now... Heading home soon...

Haffa productive week y'all!!! Cheers!!!
Okay I bedder go for the late dinner and then gotta be awake.. got the midnight 'pai theen Kung' thingy since it's Hokkien New Year!!!

Xcuse me Doc...

Saw this as NST headlines yesterday.....
My comments in red,....

Doctors incapable of diagnosing disease? WAH Sei lor like tis.... bleaghhh!!! Shocking as it may seem, some doctors who handle patients have no clinical skills. Bluntly put, the patient is something of a guinea pig in their hands. GUINEA PIGS??? oi think we're wat???

These doctors may have sufficient theoretical knowledge, but they lack practical experience. same same like Chinese Doctors lar.... or any other profession.. U learn by trial and error, but hmmm when it's got something to do wif life... erk...

Another shocker: Some of these doctors are products of medical colleges operating out of shoplots,hmmmm actualli... I don't understand what's wif it operating out of shoplots... with no proper facilities such as laboratories and insufficient lecturers. okay... if they donch haf proper labs/lecturers...then it's a point worth contemplating....WHAT THE HELL WERE THE STUDENTS/THEIR PARENTS thinking before signing up wif that college?

The main problem is the mushrooming of private medical colleges. Of the 17 medical colleges in the country, only eight are public medical universities.

There are simply not enough places at designated government hospitals for medical students to undergo practical training. The problem is expected to worsen as more colleges are approved by the Ministry of Higher Education.

Director-general of Health Datuk Dr Ismail Merican acknowledged that government hospitals were unable to accommodate the increasing number of students needing clinical training. Then they shud open it up to private hospitals then....

"There are simply too many of them," he said. "Whom do we blame when we get doctors who do not have the necessary clinical skills?" I thought we had a shortage of doctors ??Now got too many??

Expressing concern, Dr Ismail said he had come across doctors in hospitals who did not have clinical skills such as patient care, familiarity with the signs and symptoms of diseases, diagnosing illnesses, and doctor-patient communication.
wah must check which hospitals don't haf these doctors hor?? then blacklist it from our list...

"Theory is okay, but what about clinical skills? We have the same problem with allied healthcare staff such as pharmacists, radiologists and nurses," he told the New Straits Times.

Students are required to start their clinical skills training from day one, but this does not always happen due to the shortage of places.

"Although we need lots of doctors and allied healthcare staff, we need them to be of quality," OF COURSE quality lar... abuthen?? phwoarr... liddat oso nid to SAY one arrr.... fualauuuu Dr Merican......Dr Ismail said, adding that he was also aware of private medical colleges not having enough lecturers.

"My advice is, consult the Health Ministry before setting up medical colleges. This is because invariably they would want to use the ministry’s hospitals. When we say there are no more places, they get upset."

He said to meet the pressure for places, the ministry had opened up some of its district hospitals to medical students.

University Malaya Medical Centre director Prof Datuk Dr Mohd Amin Jalaludin said the programmes run by private medical colleges had to be closely monitored so that standards defined by the National Accreditation Board were met.

"If the standards are not met, we will not have quality doctors. We want safe and quality doctors for Malaysians," he said, adding Universiti Malaya set high standards and offered excellent infrastructure, curriculum, teaching staff and facilities.

While more medical colleges would grant Malaysians better opportunities to pursue medicine locally and reduce cash flow out of the country, Dr Mohd Amin said, it should not mean "mass production and compromising on standards and quality".

He feels having more medical colleges would only dilute the academic staff. He said he was aware of private medical colleges employing expatriates to teach, with some having difficulty getting lecturers for certain programmes.

UKM vice-chancellor Professor Datuk Dr Mohd Salleh Mohd Yassin agreed that there were not enough teaching hospitals in the country. He said some colleges might not be able to cope with the high turnover of lecturers.

Saying those wanting to start medical colleges had to be responsible, he added: "There is no shortcut. I have been in the medical faculty for 22 years and I know the biggest problem is getting the proper teacher-student ratio. Can private schools afford this requirement? Do they have the required infrastructure?"

Dr Mohd Salleh called for the consolidation of medical colleges.

Medical lecturer Dr Kuljit Singh said: "Private medical colleges should not be built just because of demand or because the business is lucrative."

Saying it was difficult to get experienced teaching staff, he added: "The majority of doctors in government hospitals are juniors and lack teaching experience. We seriously lack a good teaching force and thus end up getting foreign lecturers."

Dr Kuljit said private hospitals should allow medical students to do clinical training at their centres as part of their social responsibility.

Haf got a pal still studying medicine in India at the moment... She shud graduate in like... 3years time?? I hope she puts in her heart n soul into this lifetime experience.
Thank God my current doctor has enuff of clinical experience( I think...) and is patient and kind enuf to endure all that I put her through... Phewwwwwww am truly thankful for that... kah kah kah!
