My First Attempt In Baking

I had finally baked a cake! Molly used to encourage me to try, she would said "Jie, I believe you can, just do it". I will always put those words in my heart whenever I lack confidence, it becomes a push factor for me. This time round is buttercake, next time i will try something more challenging.

Thanks Auntie Jean for the recipe :) and my hubby for assisting me.

At The Garden Of Remembrance 17 June 2010

Yes, Is Over...

Waited for hours for my surgery yesterday. I arrived in the morning at KK hospital around 9am, but did not proceed straight to the day surgery department until 920am. I waited till 10plus and the nurse brought me into the day surgery room, got changed and given a bed and wait, again. They were at least 10 over patients in 2 of the rooms. Temperature, height & weight were taken as a standard procedure. An old nurse then came and inserted a Cervagem 3 hours prior my surgery. What is Cervagem? It is a pessaries yellowish-white spindle-shaped vaginal pessaries each containing 1.0 mg gemeprost. The length of the pessary is approximately 26 mm, the diameter at the base is approximately 5 mm and the diameter at the maximum cross-section is approximately 7.5 mm. Cervagem is used for the dilation and softening of the cervix prior to surgical procedures during pregnancy or for the induction of miscarriage.There are side effects from using Cervagem and the more common ones are:
*vaginal bleeding or uterine pain
* nausea, vomiting
* lower abdominal pain, backache
* headache, slight fever, flushing, chills
* dizziness
* irregular heart beats
* muscle weakness
* shortness of breath.Did I get all the above symptoms? I have had some of it, vomited a few times for a start.
It was already 3pm and everyone in the rooms already left for surgery. Cannot tahan liao, I complained to the nurse for letting me wait for such a long time, you see, after the complained, the nurse said that she's ready to push me into the operation theatre. Now I understand why Singaporean likes to complain because things gets moving by doing so :)
The operating theatre was cold, the male anaesthetist gave me anaesthesia before the operation. The anaesthetist did also mention that he will insert the painkiller medicine through my anus, haiz... once you are on the operation theatre you are helpless, and just let them see everythings & do anything to you. The nurse had the oxygen mask on me and after that, whatever happened next I have not clue. When I was awake it was around 4pm. The operation lasted about 10minutes after checking with the nurse. They put me under observation for few hours before letting me home. My hubby, my mum & godmum were there, felt good to see them. Thank GOD for making the surgery a smooth one. I will be on 10 days hospitalization leave and got to refrain from carrying heavy stuff. Will be seeing the doctor in 2 weeks time for review.
And also not forgetting my loved ones for making you worried, my friends & colleagues for your well wishes.

My Day Surgery

I will be scheduled at KK hospital for my day surgery tomorrow. It is a small surgery which involves in removing the Endometrial Polyp and the Endometrium of 19mm that was scanned this earlier April. Endometrial Polyps are usually benign although some may be precancerous or cancerous, which I do not want to take the risk and thus decided to have it remove.
Tomorrow operation will be a dilatation & curettage & hysteroscopy polypectomy. Dilatation & curettage is to remove part of the lining of the uterus by scooping. It is a therapeutic gynecological procedure as well as a rarely used method of first trimester abortion. Yes, abortion! I haven't even give birth have to go through this :( haiz...
As for Hysteroscopy, an instrument will be used to remove the Polyp.
From now till 12 midnight I will stuff myself with food as I can only consume after my surgery in the afternoon. Well for now I will just leave everything in the hands of GOD.

Our Genting Trip 28 - 30 May 2010

On the 28th May morning at Tanjong Pagar train station, 14 of us took the 7:45am train to Kuala Lumpur. After a long journey, we reached KL station at 4pm and after which we took a cab to Genting, took around an hour that cost about RM80.


The weather this time round is not as cold as before, but it did rain on the second night. As it was a long weekend, all 6300 hotel rooms at Genting were fully booked according to the cabby. I met my sister's friend, Zhangfang there and she was with her family. And also met my colleague Fiona for her concert. What a small world.
This is the most tiring trip I have had so far, will definitely take a coach next time.

This year I got the most gifts for my Birthday. These 2 gifts were both from my cousin Ah B & her mum and were special delivery to Genting by hand from Uncle Meng and his wife.

Thank you Uncle Meng, Auntie & Ah B for the Gifts.
