Me Time!

Yes. I had a splitting headache sometime in Dec last year when I had to go to Changi hospital where they made the diagnosis that it was Vertigo and made me go back for treatment for it since. They finally referred me to the neurologist sometime in March who sent me for a scan in July! My stroke happened a few days before the scan. It happened in exactly the same manner as my headache but was much worst and I felt my myself losing control of my limbs. Fortunately my wife brought me to Tan Tock Seng where apparently the doctors operated on me. I've little recollection of the episode other that snippets here and there. Woke up feeling high in the ICU. Lol. The doctors were not sure if I could recover intact from my episode but thank God I managed to. Will continue to fight!

This kinda horror story is the scariest for people at our age!
Take care, bro!

I have been organising the paper documents and my hobby stuff at home as well as keeping a lean kitchen. Want to minimise burden on others if I go into serious ‘downtime’ suddenly.

You're right, Jen.

I think this way too. I prefer to keep everything tidy & updated but not the men in my house. So, I just console myself I've a lifetime job of checking if they like their cameras be stowed away, bind all gadget wires, tidy/arrange all shoes, spec cleaning cloth .... while loads.

Then those bank statements, govt letters, kids circulars, etc. Then there are those insurance policies of all family members & in-laws'. Now it dawn on me, maybe I shld set up a corner for the men only with shelves specially for their gadgets in the study, just as I've my baking stuff & bz in my workroom. I label all my shelves, safe & filing shelves. Will hv a look again.

More like stroke limiting blood flow & he gets dizzy as a result of blockages. Right, Chief?

hahaha we all playing guess..my guess is due to deposits, blood flow that carries oxygen affected causing headache and that is when at normal requirement of oxygen level. but when sudden higher oxygen level needed at that particular point but failed to deliver, like sudden cut off..then stroke happens??

just 1 day and ME TIME thread jumped 2 pages :yikes:


daughter enjoying her ME TIME...so am I :imcool: we don't have to rush home to revise this or that subject.
I just hope she doesn't enjoy until she forgets her name. actually I am planning to get her to revise sec 2 math in november, but just too burnt out to plan anything. BUT if I don't plan, she will definitely not do so.

it's been 1.5 weeks since her exams ended. perhaps I should have fun and not think of anything.

Janet,

Must give yourself a bit more break. After all I’ve stressed yourself grilling her & worrying if she can cross that hurdle. Both u & yr girl had achieved that. Rest abit more when sch holiday starts then start abit of work. Don’t burn yourself dear. Take care.

esteema,
it's just strange to be so relaxed. sometimes out of the blue, I would ask daughter what she is doing and she would reply me, 'exams are over. i'm relaxing. don't disturb me.'
