Dearest all,

I'm back after just a week ... just missed you all ... just a matter of time (very soon) that I will be sitting next to you all having "teh tarik" or coffee or beer and gossiping away.

Latest update about my condition, I did a Skin Carotenoid scan on 12/1/06 and the score is 24,000 as compared to my last scan on 10/11/05 @ 16,000. This indicates that my antioxidant had improved. This coincides with Mr Su, my physician, whom indicates that my internal organ is back to full strength.

I'm on the new cancer medicine for almost 7 days and there is reaction already such as dark blood phlegme from my mouth and nose, movement on my head and neck. I will check with Mr Su on Monday, whether I need to increase my doses from 2 to 3 times a day.

Next thing will be how do I past my time everyday? :-
7+ am woke up and cleanup, prepare my fruit juice and meditate
8+ am walk down the stairs from 9th floor to had my breakfast
8++ am took my medicine and read newspaper
10+ am preparing my lunch
11+ am check and send email, do browsing
11++ am cook my lunch
12+ pm had my lunch
1 pm had my medicine and read newspaper and watch astro program
2+ pm prepare my teatime (eg. organic red or green bean or sweet potatoes)
3+ pm had my teatime, check email and chat on skype or msn or yahoo
4+ pm take a short nap (sometime 15 mins, 30 mins or 1 hrs)
5+ pm prepare my dinner
6+ pm take shower, then meditate and had my dinner
7+ pm prepare my ingredient for tomorow fruit juice
8+ pm watch astro
10+ pm check and send email, relax by playing computer games
10++ pm good night sleep

Certain time, the medicine make me woke up once or twice.

Well, that's how I past my time everyday except for Sunday where I go and do my weekly refilling of my vegetables and fruits.

Till then, wish you all a wonderful day everyday.

Cheers.
Michael Gan

hi mike, glad to hear good improvement from u.. keep up yr good spirit and strength, glad to know u are into meditation because the power of the mind is unbelieveable at times. it's proven that meditation helps in releasing stress and building inner peace and with a strong and focused mind, yr inner strength can improve tremendously. i come fr a strong buddhist background and as buddhists we are encouraged to go thru meditation daily at least 15min in the morning and before going to sleep but sad to say to this date, aiya, i still did not practice this because couldnt find time...haha, guess this is just an excuse.. ! after reading yr mail, i think i must make it a point. there are many benefit one gets, most importantly, the inner peace.... this helps in our daily stressful life and handling situation better.

i take this opportunity to wish u and family a great, happy and prosperous new year.... really hope we can get together one day... to gossip ...haha, weng too has been following up on yr progress fr time to time.. so it will be good if we all can meet up for a chat... do call me should u need any form of help, just anything u can think of that i should be of help...

rgds n take good care...
