Dar and I realized that we aren't doing what we preach again for our lives.. Already slacked on our exercise regime so we worked on other aspects but this week was a week that kinda threw us off balance again.. Sigh.. Why does it happen every now and then?

Anyways, I was looking forward to the Mid-Autumn Festival, mooncakes, lanterns, candles.. Was contemplating between the usual girlfriends' gathering or to gather with my family.. Went with the flow and let iPhone Jess decide..

I felt happy since late afternoon at the thought of enjoying mooncakes (sis will be bringing lotsa mooncakes over, one of which is mao shan wang durian mooncakes!!!) and playing lanterns with my siblings and lovely nieces!

Unfortunately, received news that Papa Chua was super duper unwell.. So it became the first priority, to persuade and accompany him to visit the doc and find the cure to the root cause for the sudden increase in blood pressure.

IT TAKES TWO HANDS TO CLAP! Ended up spending 3-4 hours at SGH without finding the root cause but doc gave Papa Chua fast relief! His high blood pressure resumed to normal range within 2 hours.. Best!

Why were we not able to find the root cause?

Simply because the folks think that once warded will never get to
walk out. Put it simply, he rather lose that important breath than be manipulated by the docs who are supposed to be there to cure you. In this case, I suggest all docs out there to be put into jail cos they are out to kill you (patients) slowly and silently.. Haha..

I do try to understand their fear and wonder what fear is there to run tests and pop pills? 病从浅中医不是吗？Now it's just popping pills, what if it's worse than that?

Really TOUGH being kids to parents who choose to be their own doctors and make kids worry for them for as long as they live...真不自爱...说一套，做一套！哎.. Parents out there, remember this if you speak of how much you love your kids!

Once again, I am reminded of this at work.. I seriously need to be daring to negotiate and fight for interests. I need to unlearn putting others before me and fight for the interests of those who are with me always.. How? How? How? I really find this very very difficult.. Help, anyone? Makes me wonder if I am suitable.. Maybe i should give myself another year and see how..
