Today is my new liver birthday!! Its 7 years on 30th October.
I decided to share this moment on email only, not on Facebook nor Twitter which I don't share such occasion just like this to every one.
Yes, its 7 years ago today at University of Florida Hospital, I was waiting in the preparation room to get my new liver. Time fly very fast but I never ever forget this day when it arrive each year. Beside celebrating many events but this one is giving me both happiness and sadness feeling to me. I still do thinking about the family who gave me this precious present, my new liver.
I am doing real well except 8 months ago my liver enzyme went up but they fixed it after did some pocking to my liver's bile ducts. Now all are perfectly functioning. Am I happy? Yes very much every time I pass one year. Tonight I am inviting my Pastor to my home and will say, "Thank you to my Christ!' with him and friends.
On Life, I don't understand very well but I keep my faith on. I say that because I have seen the bastards are doing well and the honest are striking, some fighting to live but 6 days old baby die, some has millions and fighting some have tiny but happily eating dinner with the family.
I am in Florida since August. Enjoying my Tennis, Hip-hop, Poker, friend and my mother in law. Need to do some check up all over which is line up on next week. Oh yes, chasing my new insurance too. Base on my own life experience, some how I like Obama care but I don't like his Immigration law. Well please do not think I am freely loading from Obama care. Yes, its do cost me NOT cheap BUT OK. Well, compare to that stupid my ex insurance which was sucking us shamefully and also gave my husband huge deep depression, this insurance is better. I hope I can say, now all is over. Thanks goodness that I no need to go on line which is not working well for the moment. I am freely can shop. Thank you to Ms. Mary, from University of Florida account who told me how and what I have to do.
Robins is doing Ok. He likes busy!! On the way to Arkansas for meeting with Wal-Mart people. I hope he is not going to retire in Thailand as I am planning to retire in Florida. He is saving for his old age. Now I know why American people are saving like a dog eating nothing but BONE! Life is not that fun if your destination is SAFE and DIE. If I am not with liver transplant, I could very happily to retire in Guatemala or Thailand if Robins passes his midlife crisis nicely. Not much news about him, that's all I can share.
Now, my son!! He just had his 18 years birthday. He is doing well not on top of the class but satisfaction level. His tennis is good. Still tall and handsome boy. I am worry about his future collage. He did mention me 2 fields that he really interesting. First one is, he wants to work in Holly wood behind camera with computer. That's fine with me as long as he is not marry with the Hollywood movie stars who stay marry from 2 days to 2 years!! I might end up punching my bad future ex daughter in law's face. Second one is...., Shan wants to be a medicine research team. Good deal? No idea. So thankful that he is a nice child. For me is he going to be rich or famous, I don't know much but I pray that he will be a drug free, no womanizer nor lier. I want him to be a happy man with a woman who loves him truly.
I will say this....., My doctors did a good job, I got a good liver, my husband meet the payment for that I say thank you to them. Also some of you in this email are still praying for me, Thanks you all.
Above all, to my God who makes this liver to stay well, to response well to the medicines which I am taking, thank you so much Dear Christ. I know how I pray, how I have faith in him. I will or won't compare my blessing to others. Each day when I wake up and notice that I am breathing from this freely gift OXYGEN, I know I have to say thank you!!
Love,
