Homeschool Shanghai

I’ve just added this weblink under ‘Recommended Reading’. Yes, I know most what I have under ‘Recommended Reading’ are not e-books or websites, just titles and author description for you to get from the neighbourbood’s bookstores. But not for this one. This site is called Generational Dynamics and it predicts the world’s direction according to [...]

EM’s husband sent an sms asking us to pray. EM broke her ankle last Sunday and is due for operation to fix 6 screws on her broken ankle at noon today. I sent out an urgent email to all in SALT and SAINTS, hoping to at least catch those checking their emails in the morning. [...]

The past days have been tough for the family. Michael fell sick after we reached Shanghai and he took medical leave on Friday to rest over the weekends. Our domestic helper came back on the same day of our arrival. Snow in Shanghai had stopped for a few weeks now since we last left. I [...]

It’s the day of our departure for Shanghai. John woke up with a high fever of 39.5 Degree Celsius. I administered Ibrufen at 6am quickly and stuck the last cooling pad on John’s forehead before rushing to the airport. It was so testing. With all that had happened so far, I felt I could nearly [...]

Mom is okay and discharged from the hospital. She’s eating well. We talked over the phone. Michael went to be with her after settling lunch for the kids and I. Our fevers have somewhat subsided, thank God. The world always remembers your failures and not your successes. So true it is in the society of [...]

My godma (2nd Aunt), 4th Aunt and 5th Uncle’s wife came to visit me after they had visited Mom. They said she’s okay. The entire breast was removed due to the discovery of 1st stage breast cancer. Deep down I was devastated. I didn’t know what to say, maybe, to be thankful to discover it [...]

Mom was wheeled into the operation theatre at 7 am in the morning. There was nothing I could do except to pray and trust God. Paul and I continue to run high fever of 39 Degree Celsius. My aunts called, dismayed to hear that we are sick and staying in YMCA. I had to explain [...]

I was wide awake in the wee hours of the morning. I didn’t know why, so I decided to pray. Then I was prompted to check on Paul. He was terribly hot. I took the thermometer and measured him. To my shock, Paul was running a fever of 40.1 Degree Celsius. I woke Michael up [...]

Bad news. Paul and I woke up early in the morning to go to the GP at the clinic downstairs. Paul is running a fever. We have to wear masks and stay in the rooms, staying clear of Mom and Dad. My parents cannot fall sick. Dad’s heart is working at 40%, with diabetes, highblood [...]

We woke up early in the morning to take Mom to see the anaesthetist. Due to the mistake of the radiologist and administration staff (there were too many patients yesterday), Mom missed the anaesthetist. We were asked to come back to the hospital the next day. The appointment went quickly by and rather smoothly. I [...]
