Dearest all,

It has been a very challenging last month for me, not able to enjoy the World Cup cos I slept very early but able to see the repeat the next day.

For your information, below are the things that I go thru last month:-
1) On 19/6, I had difficulty in drinking. Cannot drink too fast, because the water I drank will come out thru my right nose.
2) On 21/6, had difficulty in eating rice or noodle and got a few times I almost choked myself but I managed to vomit out the intake. Drinking problem still persist.
3) On 23/6, I can hardly speak and occasionally had coughing.
4) On 25/6, there's improvement on my voice, drinking and eating
5) Of course during this period I managed to finish my meals everyday.
6) On 29/6, went to Haytai, see Uncle Su on 30/6, this trip no medicine for me but I was given a menu for my porridge (everyday) and a soup menu (twice a week). I was told that this will improve my immune system and help to gain back my normal drinking and eating habit.
7) At this moment I'm able to drink 250ml of water non-stop and able to eat faster than before.

Don't worry; I'm still coping with it very positively and there is further improvement on my drinking and eating habit, I'm thinking of going to Pemalang, Indonesia to see Ibu Atun.

For the time being, I can only take porridge or kueh-tau soup. As for my weight, I think I'm about 79 to 80 kg,

My next trip should be either 1 st week of Aug or 2nd wk of Aug..

Cheers.
