Family together

13 August 2006

Chris has just arrived this evening, joining the children and I in Singapore. Chung En and Hui En had arrived a few days ago. Both are having their breaks at the moment. We are thankful to the Lord for giving us as a family these next five days together.

This coming week is my 3rd week of recuperation after the 2nd cycle of chemotherapy. The 3rd cycle of chemo is starting on 22 August when Chris will be back again to support me.

At the moment, I am having some abdominal discomfort, likely due to the pelvic tumour pressing on my bowels and abdominal region. Please pray for me for less discomfort, and especially be able to sleep well enough at night.

As a family, we are again very grateful to you, dear ones, for all the visits, calls, cards (by email and snail mail), gifts (in many and varied ways) that have been coming our way. We are very encouraged to press on for the Lord, knowing He has allowed us to walk this chosen path. It has not been easy for me but we are persevering, remaining CALM, FAITHFUL, AND UNCONFUSED by the turmoil of life.
