First of all, I would like to wish all those who celebrate Chinese New Year a very happy Chinese New Year!
Just like the past two years, I went to the haematology ward in UH first thing in the morning to visit patients. My nephew, Zhi Yong , and niece, Nga Ming, followed me to the ward.
We managed to see all patients in three hours, talking and praying for them.
“I am David, a Leukaemia patient treated here two years ago,” is my self -introduction to the patient or their family members.
After that I gave them one Mandarin orange and talked to them. I shared with some of them my treatment experience including bone marrow transplant.
I prayed for an auntie who was doing her first chemotherapy. She said she was so touched to have me visited her and prayed for her.
“Very touching, very touching,” she said after the prayer.
I met another patient in hers 40s. She was diagnosed with Leukaemia one year ago and completed the treatment, but unfortunately she experienced a relapse three months later. She said she spent her Chinese New Year in hospital last year and experienced the same this year.
This patient has 11 siblings but only one was willing to come for HLA matching test. The rest of them don’t want to do the test because they are afraid of losing bone marrow after the donation. The situation didn’t change despite doctor’s explanation and persuasion. The doctor is searching for non-sibling donor for her now.
“You must be a Christian,” a lady whose husband is undergoing bone marrow transplant greeted me. She said no one except a Christian will go to hospital to visit patients on the first day of Chinese New Year:-)
I brought my family to Sunway Pyramid for a walk in the afternoon. We took some photos there.
