How September has ended since the time I last updated!
The missus's condition began to deteriorate and there were hardly peaceful nights in the family. One night , as I began to massgae her bloated legs, tears began to run down for a short while as I was finding it hard to accept that a healthy person has become a weak and fallen picture, lying down and unable to do anything. However, underneath all that heavy tirade of sadness, hope was felt and have to be felt.
In my 35 years, I have experienced my walks with the Lord. Other than praying hard and going to the doctors, I was getting clueless and the situation was getting tough when Karen began to cough out blood. Eventually she was admitted to the A& E at NUH and an agonizing wait of 10 hours before she was warded for another ten days. Diagnosis showed that hear heart was weak and she had a blood clot in the lung as well. Cognitive heart failure. It came as a shock , but it soon made sense to why she have had the symptoms and for a long time, we thought it was reflux. We were wrong! I prayed so hard to the Lord that she be cured only for the reflux, and i would not want anything else. However, the Lord surely had plans to heal her completely. Doctors said she has no reflux problem and I was baffled and even want to question the doctors initially why no mention was made at all. But I was still too taken aback by the lung and heart new problems.
Over the first day, she lost nearly 7 kg of water! The next few days, she made good progress and was finally allowed to be discharged after ten days in NUH. Nearly all the symptoms except for some coughing had gone. Praise the Lord! In the difficult times, it was always easy to blame God , but similarily, I hope anyone reading this or happen to come across this blog should know it is also easy to let Jesus take over it all. Recently Christianity has taken some whacking with the City Harvest case, and etc. However, do always remember that times may have changed, world changes, technology changes, people's mindset changes.. but Jesus never changed at all. From the time he walked this Earth till now, He has always been the same.
Its 66 days to Christmas as we speak. For a long time , since we had celebrated some ringing bells. All that had happened to Karen had made me realise many things and what was really worth living for. Not saying that it was a good thing that happened, but it would serve well to know so that we learn well.
Pen off for now, at the stroke of 12am. Good night fellows!
