Friend from an online support forum told me ' Make plans not result '.
Think about it , she's right .
We should not give up and stop planning because of the situation we are facing , if we do so, we'll always feel upset and live with no direction in life.
Feel great with her sharing .
Go ! Go ! Go ! Go ahead with our plan . Plan for gathering , plan for vacation , plan for good dinner with family n friends , plan for anything in your mind .
I look back to last year, when decided to go ahead with family vacation to Shanghai, I just go ahead to book air ticket and hotel , then, work very hard to monitor and keep myself fit . The result is , I make it for the trip.
In end 2011 , right after chemo, I plan for family vacation to New Zealand and I am worry of my condition, so, I keep delay to book air ticket and hotel . Just everyday chk on net for what to do if my family vacation dream happen. The end result is , we go no where .
So, I should just back to drawing board and start planning ... :)
Anyway, I feel good today and settle few outstanding issues . Waking up with good feeling and wife drove me around.
Many more things pending for clearing up, i.e. Insurance claims, outstanding works by renovation contractor and so on .
Will go ahead to set a schedule and get it done according . Please wish me will get it settle by next week .
Lord , I feel so thankful today . Thanks for leading me and bless me with wisdom .
Thank You Lord Jesus , Amen.

Hi ! I am back .
Worst situation face by cancer patient is the unpredicted changes to body condition and the uncertainty of what is next ?
Agreed that we are living in a world of uncertainty , but, somehow when totally uncertain of what will happen next and unpredicted things can happen anytime, isn't it kind of scary and no fun.
When you not manage to do any planning for what to do next , who to meet next week , where to go with family for next vacation and when ?
No , no , no , you can plan it . Just that your plan can be changed any moment , because of ;
- with no indication, suddenly back pain, body ache, chest pain, stomach pain or just any kind of pain strike
on you without any warning . Be it midnight when you are sleeping , in daytime watching TV , in a dinner discussion
and ...
Isn't this terrible ? Yes , it is .
- with no indication, suddenly your body energy drain off , you feel weak, very very weak , it can happen anytime,
without warning.
Isn't this terrible ? Yes , it is .
- with no indication, you loss your appetite, or side effect of previous chemo or radiation treatment just strive
you without warning.
Isn't this terrible ? Yes, it is .
Well ! What I have mentioned, happen to me recently and it's one of the reason, I am away from blog recently.
Yes ! There is other reason why I am not updating my blog, busy with house shifting, busy with celebration of Chinese New Year .
How I get thro' it ?
Believe and have Faith .
Yes ! Situation did make me feel bad, upset, worry , fear, I am just another human.
What is important is to BELIEVE and have FAITH in GOD .
What is important is do not let the bad feeling, worry, fear, stay with you.
Pray to God . God is always there for us and he will answer our prayer and his healing and blessing
will touch upon us and we will recover from pain and so on ...
God will lead us to walk thro'.
Thanks God .
Amen.

A good start For 2013
Since last posting on 1st Jan, been spending time to deal with the side effect. Almost everyday have new things to deal with ( I means the chemo side effect ).
Anyway, it's good that it's over and I am now focus to rebuild body and immune system.
God is great and he keep leading me and bless me with wisdom to deal with issues after issues, lead me out of darkness to light. Praise the Lord ! Thanks .
Good news to share . I have my ct scan last week and feel so glad that the result show no major changes to my condition . Not that I am cured and recover , just the drug have stabilise my condition . For us, cancer patient , Stable means good .
And my oncologist have agreed to my suggestion to take a rest from chemo treatment , so that I can have time to recover my body/immune system and enjoy my CHinese New Year celebration next month with my family and friends.
Feel great ! It is a good start for 2013 and pray that everything will be fine and smooth for coming months.
Today I went to Hospice daycare and meet up with friends, a nice gathering and hope that my condition allow me to join the weekly daycare programme .
Thanks for prayer from you and I pray for God blessing to touch upon you and bless you and your family to have Joy , Happiness and Good Health.
God Bless.

Bye Bye 2012
Just want to say Bye Bye and thanks to 2012 .
Is it a great year for me ? In a way , it is Yes and No.
For my Living with Lung Cancer journey , 2012 is a tough year .
In Feb. I hv the worst chemo experience, with the extreme pain, I ended up with request to doctor to refer me to Hospis Malaysia . Thanks God, with Hospis help, manage to get pain under control and subside . Praise the Lord.
In end June, my brain MRI scan reported the small 'c' show up in my brain and say ' hello SK , I am here ' . After consulted with doctors and also reading sharing in cancer forum, decided to proceed wih WBR ( whole brain radiation ). I expected it may cause side effect, but, never expected it's tough . Feeling weak , loss appetite , loss weight , headache . I decided to delay my chemo until I feel better. It took two over months for me to feel ok ( from July to Sept ) .
In Sept., start chemo with Alimta and change the drug to Gemzar + Vinorelbine in Oct.
And today, I spend my New Year eve writting my blog in hospital , cause I have delayed my chemo from last week due to low blood count. Praise the Lord ! Everything goes well today.
With God , what I mentioned above is nothing to compare to the blessing from God and make it a great year for me.
I have learned new things in this journey.
What is Pain management.
What is WBR and how to deal with it .
How to plan ahead with precaution by having necessary equipment to avoid fall, when suddenly few weak .
I make new friends who share with me their thought and experience in living with lung cancer.
With Hospis arrangement, I meet Prince William . Thanks Hospis Malaysia .
I have regained my feel in colour pencil drawing and improve.
I managed to have a enjoyable vacation with my family to Shanghai.
Wow ! Feel Good , Feel Great , Feel so thankful .
Praying 2013 be a great year to all of us and may God blessing to touch upon us and bless us and our family with Joy , Happiness and Good Health .
God Bless !
