My father

This is the first time that I have come in close contact with a cancer patient...

"I saw how much he longed to eat but could not swallow the food as every mouth of it brought him pain. Milk has become his daily diet. We bought him chocolate and strawberry flavored ones to replace the vanilla. He is still hopeful that the radio-therapy sessions will burn all the big ulcers away. All of us hope that he will recover from it too... looking at him pains us as he is very very thin now."

I have entrusted him to the One who holds time in His hands.

My third niece


This is my third niece. She is our family's alarm clock. Always wakes us up early in the morning with her loud "gaggle". I have just received news from her mum that she is going to have a baby brother! With this coming baby boy, I will have two nephews and three nieces altogther. Alot of work to be done... some of you will know what I meant here.
