28 Jan 10

Ah Sang met us specially at KKH Mac at 630am. He said that this date was of special significance to him as 10 years ago, on this date, Wei Yang collapsed. He shared with us many Bible verses and encouraged us to continue to build our faith through reading God’s word and to share our testimonial of God’s grace and mercy to others so as to expand the kingdom of God. After praying for us and Charlene, he left for work. We thank God for Ah Sang who we know understands how we feel (cos he’s been through it) and have been consistently encouraging us on with God’s word. We know that God sent him as a support to us.

We saw and prayed with Charlene. While waiting to be pushed into the operating theatre, Charlene showed a super-frown which shocked the junior doctor (also involved in the op) who was waiting with us. Charlene was pushed into the operating theatre at 8.30am. After praying together for Charlene, I went to express milk and take breakfast while Dez continued to pray and meditate on God’s word. When I returned, we read God’s word together and prayed together.

When I was expressing milk halfway at 12.30pm, the surgeon called and said that the op has ended. It was direct and they managed to do the keyhole procedure. Praise God!

Charlene came back to NICU and the anesthetic doctor stayed to monitor her while the nurses fussed over her. Blood tests and X-ray were taken for monitoring purposes. Doctor said she was stable throughout the op, she didn’t lose much blood and didn’t have any super-frowns. Thank God for his immaculate timing to let the junior doctor see the super-frown so that the surgical team knows exactly how it would be like. It’s amazing that for 4 hours during the op, Charlene didn’t have any super-frowns at all.

We thank God for being with us while we were waiting, granting us peace. Also, thank God for granting Dez strength though he didn’t eat anything from 12 midnight to 8pm. Thank God for the people who prayed for us.
