I’m Coming Home For Christmas…

I am currently taking Clexane for these 5 days and will be taking Warfarin for this 3-6 months time.

Sial, just this line alone is technical enough for me..

1. I did not take long hours flight recently.
2. No one in my family has similar problems.
3. Not taking any special pills.

It started with backache (because I slept on the couch yes I know I’m smart) and then I felt my right leg knee was a bit painful and I thought maybe I was standing for too long.  The 3 hours practice at church feels like 3 centuries for me as I kept trying to find opportunity to sit down. By the evening, I felt the pain spread to my leg muscles and I can’t really tell which part is painful and I thought maybe it could because of the bad weather and I might be having “fung sap” for my old injuries on my right ankle?

I woke up middle of night. It was just very painful. Painful. I tried massaged it and find the most comfortable posture I can sleep (now I am lying straight on the floor).

I went to see the Chinese physician (Master Urut) on Sunday evening after Jin Chong came back from church, hoping that the Master will help me to massage the painful-numb-painful leg but he didn’t. He told me that I have a very weak womb and lack of blood. He prescribed me 3 sets of Chinese herbs medicine that will strengthen me and advised me to come back  after 3 days. No kidding, I almost got to write down the boiling instruction…soak in water for 15 minutes, boil 3 bowl of waters and become 1 bowl water, etc…

I went to work on Monday. Now, call me one-leg-pain. I wore slippers and my whole car (and myself) smell like a walking salonpas. Sial salonpas is expensive…My boss and I were researching if my right leg was swollen as compared to my left leg (I think I start to lose feeling of my right leg…haha). Only managed to drink the first prescription of soup on Monday evening.

The next day, I called up Jin Chong at 10am and told him that I am in front of SDMC. Yes, I drove all the way there by myself and yes it got to be no kidding seriously painful for me to step out from this painful zone…I was referred from Bone specialist to a Joint specialist and the doctor suspected I may have blood clot on my knee and asked me to take a blood test and ultrasound scanning….for my right leg.

Looooooooooooooooooooong wait of story and I make it short, I was required to be warded and to be transferred to the Blood specialist doctor…So there I was…with Jin Chong..We confirmed the admission procedure by7pm? Tired. :( Leg pain, wallet pain.

We went back home to pack. I did my admission checklist. Man, it is more like a holiday trip. And the bf assigned me to write Christmas cards since I can’t go anywhere…So if anyone of you receive my handwritten or electronic cards, it is sincere and hard work.. I can’t be mobile shopping for Christmas……

Man, this is so long and I feel so sleepy typing all these and it is only 8:05pm.

Thank you all for your SMS, cards, gifts, and prayers. If you notice a woman keep talking to her feet, yes that’s ME (the bible says speak to the mountain and cast it to the sea, it shall be removed, Amen). I am speaking to the 2 bloody clots to be DISSOLVED DISSAPPEARED AND GO AWAYYYY.

*Still praying in tongues*

I checked in yesterday night after our Christmas party at 10pm and I had my first injection :((((((( at 11pm. Shhh, I teared a little. Not very painful, but think about the 9 remaining shots, I am cursing the blood clots already.

I woke up this morning at 7am. No choice, my alarm rang and I couldn’t fall back to sleep.  Everything seemed normal except the bill is about RM900+ by now and I am with a less swollen leg. Good sign. Just about to enjoy my breakfast, the lab came in my room and I was served with another needle for blood test.

I don’t know why, I just don’t like needle.

11am. Got my second shot of Clexane. Yesterday was three fingers left on my stomach, Now, three fingers right on my stomach. 2 down. 8 more to go.

KF and Michelle came and visited me. Then Karyn and mom dropped by before her scheduled check up. Jin Chong came and brought some sinful food and more pillows for me.

Reading and replying work emails.
Checking Mark Kwan FB. hoho.
Told mom and papa don’t worry.
Greg and Jenn is flying here on Friday.
The insurance rejected my application. Sial. Need to call the agent tomorrow.
Maxis sent me my bill, finally. I’m gonna call 126 tomorrow.

5pm. 5pm.5pm.5pm. 5pm.5pm.5pm. 5pm.5pm.5pm. 5pm.5pm.5pm. 5pm.5pm.5pm. 5pm.5pm.5pm. 5pm.5pm.5pm. 5pm.5pm.5pm.5pm.

5pm.

The nurse guided me and I gave myself the 3rd shot. :(

7 more shots to go.

According to the doctor, I will be on 5 days course of Clexane (2 injections daily) to prepare my body for the Warfarin to take effect. If it does, PTL! No more poker face. Else, I will need to bring home needles…

Doctor said by taking Warfarin will help me to dissolve the blood clot. My target INR is 2-3. I don’t know what it means but now I am below 2. In these two days there will be another blood test and I am praying for miracle. Will be taking Warfarin for 3-6 months period (not sure yet) but I have to be more careful throughout this period. I will have higher risk to some of the side effects stated in the book like bleeding, bruises, and bleeding..and bleeding.

Oh yes, the pharmacist from SDMC talked and explained to me in detail and I was actually taking notes. Too many facts to understand and remember. :)

When can I be discharged?

I asked doctor if I can be out before Christmas. Yesterday  night, he said should be able (provided I know how to do the injection myself).

I am praying for recovery. I am praying for healing. I am praying for positive blood test result. I just got many parties I don’t want to miss, you know? :(

Please pray. for me. for my right leg. Pray for body to receive Warfarin.

Pray for supernatural healing Can?

The little things I love

 

Yes I just finished the 18th lap of my life…ya right :)

I thought it was very sweet of the bf to kiss me and wish me happy birthday when he sent me home in the evening…love the little things he did until he said,

“Happy birthday baby…and happy birthday to karen kong…”

Sial. Quite a turn off.

See, how I love my bf. :)

Jason is here at the bf’s house. I love Jason. Love seeing him with his brother. Maybe I missed that clickish feeling I used to have with my brother.

We went to Pedro and I bought the bf a pair of working shoes as his Christmas gift. I love his genuine reaction when he asked me, “Why are you buying shoes for me on your birthday?”

:)

I was just talking with Jin Chong the other day, one of the thing I want to work on next year is to be nicer…I felt convicted and I am really…really trying to be nicer…if you know what I WENT THROUGH. HAHAHA

So he gave me a random reply.

“I thought that was last year’s resolution?”

With his cheeky smile…

How can I not love you?

 

It is always good to be with person you are secured with.

And when you know He will be always on your side.

Even though sometimes His ways may surprise you…

But you know that His world centers around you.

 

My heart silent whispers…

 

Buy me more shoes laaaaaaarrrrrrrr wei…

 

This post is totally random.

Well, I don’t like nicknames.

But I prefer ShoeLover as compared to ShoeJunkies.

Work

 

 

Last year we did 400. This year 500.  Furniture delivery orders to be fulfilled within a month. :)

MAWC2009 was a blast. I am really proud of our team as we learnt wiser from last year’s system and processes.  I think marketing department really shine this year as we managed to get the craziest crowd ever on the first day and customers came back the next few days for more furniture hunting. New methods of advertising and reaching our target customers and I think it is really cool and far more effective than newspaper advertisements..

Day 1 was remarkable. The place was jam packed by crowd & transactions within the FIRST 2 hours. We had early closure by 2 hours (how about that for a warehouse clearance ;p). We just wanted to call it a day so that we can prepare better for the next 3 days. It started to rain elephants and giants around 4pm and one of the tent collapse due to strong wind & rain. All our warehouse staff are so busy holding and covering the furniture at the tent area. The rain stopped and we got to asked to crowd to leave the place so that we can prepare for the next three days. Just about to start closing the place, we got a call that there will be VIP guest visiting us in 30 minutes time.

Frankly speaking, I am quite happy that most of the negative feedback received was queue was TOO LONG. I like it. It got to be really worthy queuing up for mah…

p/s: Jin and I bought SO MANY cushion pillows and we got a room divider for only RM429 (n.p. RM2k++).

I want to remember this event not just because of the sales we generated, but the people I am grateful and appreciate working with them as a team. They are history makers.

 
The technical & operation department

The BESTEST department and colleagues to work with – our staffs from Myanmar.

Bring you for exercise and training....

I just want to see you grow...

I want you to be happy and healthy...

I admit buying new toys from the store is one of the motivation...

You know how I love shopping...

I will try to provide a clean and nice environment for you to socialize...

For you to fall in love and find a partner...

So that you guys can have babies and I'll promise to feed and train them well...

WAhh, so pretty.

 

What a role model. Jason and Jin at the most happening place in Alor Setar...Old Town Kopitiam.. I think we met a few friends from chc and they were also back hometown. One actually stood up and greeted Jin. We got into the car and said the same thing: this guy has already been "chc-ized". ;)

 

We had a high tea before departing home to KL.

 

Don't ask me why that expression. Oh dear, we need a better camera. Ahem Ahem.

 

WTL. This is taken from the passenger seat. We were on our way from AS > Ipoh. Jin purposely go to the left lane and slow down for me to take this photo.

Last but not least...

 

The cutest photo on earth – Ivan on my lap watching youtube.

Reflection

Just dropped KH home. I was on the same road back to home again.

I felt quite an accomplishment that I have been spending time with the my cell group members. Realizing that I will see them at least two times every week, this people are part of my life. I’ve changed my mind. Often I felt frustrated and discouraged to those who are not with me. No no. I share my life with those who are with me, those who wants to be with me. God, I thank you for that.
