so tadi aku teman orang tua aku pegi theraphy kat simei hos...
so aku lepak la nengok2 pesakit2 buat occupational theraphy, aku nengok2 dan aku ada paham la sikit2 apa dorang buat pasal aku dulu ulang alik sgh buat theraphy jugak..
so dalam macam2 injury tu..
aku kesian betul kat PRC ni, aku rasa dia construction worker, dia punya body fit dan lean, wrist dia very the big. Masih young man maybe 30 je.
tapi korang tahu tak, aku rasa tangan kiri dia dah nerve damage teruk...
so tadi dia punya theraphy, korang tahu sepit baju tak?
theraphy dia -
longgarkan sepit baju dari satu bar, then pegi clip sepit baju tu kat bar lagi satu...
korang tahu tak? dia tak boley buat siot....
in all that time, dia cuma managed to loosen dua sepit baju, tapi nak sepit kat bar lagi satu dia tak boleh.
aku cam nak nangis siot nengok dia tadi :cry::cry::cry:... pakkal dia PRC, kalo dia budak melayu, aku mesti dah pegi kat dia kasi moral support.
so ni aku nengok aku teringat kuasa tuhan, dalam sekelip mata, anything can happen. Things yang kita take for granted boley diambil balik tuhan. |

SIA crash girl looks perfectly normal in this picture, but she says...
'I am 85% scarred'
Four years after the crash of flight SQ006 in Taipei, former air stewardess Farzana Abdul Razak is still being treated for her burns, with Singapore Airlines paying for her expenses and her monthly salary. The 22-year-old woman tells Goh Chin Lian about her life after the crash that killed 83 people.
Former air stewardess Farzana has had 11 skin graft operations and is scarred on her hands and legs. She has to wear gloves to protect her skin whenever she leaves the house. -- WANG HUI FEN
WHAT you see is my face. You haven't seen my scars.
There are scars on my hands and legs. I'm 85 per cent scarred - 45 per cent burnt and 40 per cent from the skin graft. I have to take my own skin from my own body.
I've had 11 skin graft operations - nine in Singapore and two in the United States. I also get steroid injections to treat the scars.
I hope more can be done. When I see myself, I don't think it's done. The scars are not gone yet. I have the best doctors, just that the technology now can't help me. If Michael Jackson can, why can't I have a different kind of skin?
I haven't taken a picture with the family for four years. I used to be the person who would pose. I'm the cameraman now. It makes me nervous to have my picture taken because I don't like the way I look. The idea of seeing the ugliness being frozen in time, it seems forever.
I'm glad people think I'm happy from the picture. I'd rather they have the impression I'm doing fine. I guess it makes everybody's life a bit easier. I won't look so pathetic, like 'oh poor thing'.
Cable TV is really wonderful. It keeps me occupied. I wake up in the morning, help my mum, and the rest of the time I have nothing going on.
I watch television from about 11am to about 1am or 3am. I also read.
I've been living like this for four years. It's like living in jail, in prison for something I didn't do. I feel trapped because I cannot do the things I used to do.
I can't leave my house without wearing gloves to protect my skin. I have to wear socks and shoes, no sandals. It's like Singapore is having a winter season.
I can't go swimming. I can't go camping. I used to fan the chicken at barbecues but now I can't get my gloves dirty.
If I go to someone's home to eat, I can't wash the dishes.
I started school in September. It's a certificate class in counselling, on Fridays from 7pm to 10pm for three months. My therapist said it's something for me to do. I said okay, as long as I'm not paying.
The course is interesting. I didn't know there are so many kinds of psychotic people in the world. I learn about human behaviour. In the process, you are supposed to learn about yourself. Nothing yet for me.
I see the psychologist once or twice a month. I'm still in the ditch, stuck in a hole. It's slightly soothing to have somebody you can talk to, who wouldn't judge you or resent you.
I don't know how I feel about the pilots. Every time the psychologist brings it up, I would start crying. I don't think I'm okay with them, to forgive them for what they did and didn't do.
I don't want to feel how I feel. I don't like to hate people, to have this feeling I have towards them. I don't know when I'm going to be ready to see them, what I'm going to say to them.
I met the rest of the cabin crew late last year. They are trying to fit into their new jobs and new lives.
I miss my job. I miss serving on the plane, asking: 'How may I help you?' It's what I do best. I can't do that now and I don't think I ever will.
I cannot board a plane without taking strong medication to knock me out.
I went to the US in March for skin graft surgery on my wrist. I felt very lonely. My father flew there with me and stayed for three to four days, but he couldn't take long leave and had to go before my surgery.
I had two surgeries. The first went well but the second one, I woke up with a bad reaction. I kept throwing up. I could not stop till I returned a few weeks later.
My friends and family tell me to move on, to try to forget about the past, look at the silver lining...
There's no silver lining. I don't even see a cloud. I just see cold grey painted walls and cold steel bars.
When you go to the zoo, to the lion's den, can you tell which lion is born in the zoo and which was captured in the wild? You can see from their eyes. That wild spark tells you where they are from.
A friend who used to be a zookeeper told me that the spark in the wild lion will, day by day, diminish and then, it's gone. At the end of the day, it looks like any lion - so not alive.
My friend said: 'Sometimes I see that in you. You are not as you used to be. That spark, juice, essence of life is not there anymore.'
I said I didn't even realise it's happening to me.
There must be some kind of hope, but I'm not familiar with that word.
No one really knows what has happened to me the past four years. I tell friends one version of the truth, a vague picture of the whole landscape, nothing too detailed.
I don't feel ready to talk about what has actually happened to Farzana. |

Aku tahu, dulu aku pernah rosak jugak pasal injury, aku angkat pinggan pun terlepas jatuh ... skarang ada ok , tapi aku tak bedek, ni sangat menyeramkan..., Dia ni tak boleh angkat tangan pun skarang
So, slalu la ingat2 tuhan nak ambik balik tu anytime....:pray:

His muscles are dying
Ex-national water-polo team captain Koh Wei Meng is not giving up on life just because he has an incurable disease
By Teo Cheng Wee
THE study in Koh Wei Meng's flat has a picture of the Singapore national water-polo team celebrating its triumph in the 1999 SEA Games. In it, he is biting his gold medal - his seventh in a 12-year career - and punching the air in delight.
Faces of the New Year
It's belacan or bust
Child support
He was the team captain that year, the second time he had led it in the biennial competition before he retired to get married.
Today, the 36-year-old can't even lift his arm, much less punch the air.
When LifeStyle visited him and his wife Eva, 30, at their Jurong West home last Wednesday, he could barely offer a handshake.
'I don't remember when, but I know it started with chopsticks. I just couldn't use them anymore,' Koh recalls.
That was in early 2003. It was the first stage of what was to be diagnosed a year and a half later as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), also known as Lou Gehrig's disease.
Gehrig was the American baseball player who died from the disease in 1941 at the age of 37, two years after he was diagnosed with ALS, which ended his career.
It is a neurological disorder where nerve cells (motor neurons) responsible for controlling voluntary muscles progressively degenerate.
Motor neurons serve as controlling units and vital communication links between the nervous system and the voluntary muscles of the body.
As they die, messages from the brain and spinal cord are not sent to the muscles. Hence, sufferers lose their ability to move their arms, legs and body. An incurable ailment, many patients die within five years of diagnosis.
When Koh started losing control of his hands, he initially thought it was a sports injury as he was still playing basketball and water polo weekly.
In the 16 months that followed, he was referred to different specialists and underwent a series of tests before being diagnosed with ALS last April.
During that time, he gradually lost the ability to write, hold a cup and brush his teeth.
'It was very frustrating. All these things were happening to me, yet for more than a year, nobody could confirm why,' he says.
Besides Western medicine, he also sought out Chinese sinsehs recommended by friends and relatives. But their treatments bore no fruit either, as many said they didn't know what he was afflicted with. He soon stopped visiting them, frustrated that they 'seemed to treat me like an experiment'.
By then, his hulking 92kg frame had shrunk to 82kg. His broad shoulders, the result of 16 years of competitive sports, sagged. Unable to function, the muscles on his previously strong arms also weakened and wasted away until the arms became bony.
It was the darkest hour of his struggle with the disease. He tired easily, often lasting only half a day before collapsing with fatigue.
He had to handle the stares from people as he walked with an ungainly posture because he couldn't swing his arms properly.
He was also skipping lunch because he couldn't carry his tray of food at the self-service line and was embarrassed to ask others for help.
Mornings became a chore. Koh needed his wife's help with brushing his teeth and bathing.
Frustrated with his inability to perform even simple tasks, he bickered frequently with her.
'I told her, 'You can never understand how I feel',' he says.
'It's true,' replies Eva, who works as a creative strategist with a consultancy firm. 'I badly wanted to help him get better, but I couldn't do anything. All I could do was help him with the chores.
'It's hard for him because he's used to being the man around the house. But as much as he wanted to, he couldn't, not even to help me carry my plastic bags.'
After he was confirmed with ALS, Koh came to terms with his condition. Although the prognosis was poor, at least he knew what he was facing.
Together, the couple, who have been married for five years without children, started making little changes to their lives.
His wardrobe had to be changed. That meant no clothes with buttons or trousers with zippers. Instead, they went for T-shirts and trousers with velcro or elastic waistbands.
They bought straws as he needs them to drink. They also take a bag of plastic forks wherever they go so that Koh can still have his noodles at places that provide only chopsticks.
Through their trials in the 10 months that have passed since the diagnosis, the couple's relationship has grown stronger. Koh cites his wife, family and his water-polo buddies - who ask him out for coffee every weekend to check on him - as his main sources of strength.
His uncle, whom he worked for before getting ALS, has also allowed him to keep his job as a project manager at construction sites, although he's now only doing administrative work.
Koh goes for regular acupuncture sessions. He also takes supplements, having read on the Internet that vitamins and antioxidants can help retard the disease.
He thinks these efforts - which cost him $300 a month - have helped him a little. Although the strength in his arms has not returned, he has more energy to last through the day.
The couple are also keeping their heads up, despite the fact that ALS can lead to death within three to five years.
'I do worry about it. Sometimes I wonder what I'll do if he leaves me,' says Koh's wife. 'But seeing him so determined keeps me strong.'
Koh says that he doesn't think about death.
'I prefer to take things each day as they come. Maybe because I was once a sportsman, I always keep my spirits up. I'll always be an optimist.'
If you wish to share advice or your experiences with the couple, e-mail Eva at evapan@gmail.com

What is ALS?
AMYOTROPHIC lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurological disorder where nerve cells that control voluntary muscles die off faster than usual, causing sufferers to lose strength and the ability to move their limbs and other body parts. It does not impair a person's mind, personality, memory or senses.
ALS affects one to five out of every 100,000 people in the general population.
Any muscle can be attacked first and the weakness will spread to more and more muscles.
When muscles in the diaphragm and chest wall fail, patients won't be able to breathe without ventilatory support. Many of them die within five years from the onset of symptoms though some have lived up to 20 years.
There are no known risk factors or environmental triggers, but it usually hits people between the ages of 50 and 60. In rare cases, the condition is hereditary.
There is no cure, but medical care can relieve symptoms such as muscle cramps or swallowing problems. Patients are encouraged to exercise regularly or go on a physical therapy programme.

...no hal beb...tang makcik tu...kalau dia baru diagnosed...usually dr will refer her to a dietitian...dietitian plak will interview dia...tanya apa yang dia slalu suka dan tak suka makan...cara2 masakan lauk pauk dia...pastu...dietitian nie akan beri dia panduan yang berpatutan...camna nak sukat makanan...cara masakan...dan...kalau dia suka pakai santan...mereka akan sarankan substitute for santan...and lots of other things lah...
...tang makcik nie nampak stressful...biasalah...kadang2 kalau kita di diagnosed ngan sakit2 chronic seperti nie...tentu kita akan jadi stress seketika...kadang2 sukar tuk kita accept diagnosis kita nie...tapi...kalau dia cepat terima hakikat nie...lagik baik...sebab dia akan mula membuat perubahan mengikut nasihat dr dan dietitian...
...kalau dia datang bertandang kat rumah mutu...mutu berilah dia sikit peransang...cakap kat dia yang dia kena ikut nasihat dr dan dietitian...makan obat dr...jangan tak makan...checkup jangan tak pergi...insyaallah kalau dia dengar cakap pakar...dia bley kawal sakit dia nie...also...most of the time...orang slalu kalau dengar kencing manis jer...dorang mesti associate it to 'later kena potong kaki'......sapa yang tak stresss woooo!!! lol |
