On 14th October morning, I received a phone call from my
sis-in law that my mother-in law has been diagnosed
with advanced cancer of the gall bladder. This is just
one day before my husband's appointment with his
oncologist for his routine checkup. Of course,
this is devastating for all of us. Because of the bad
timing the family thought it would be insensitive to relate
this to my husband and gave me the duty to telling
him this sad news in good time.
I told him immediately as I knew my husband is
strong and accepting. He was calmer than I had expected.
I accompanied him the next morning for his medical
appointment at the National Cancer Centre in Singapore.
The wait was not long, but nervy. The doctor cautioned
him as his appointment which was overdue(he missed his
appointment in February) and told him his condition is clear.
We were so relief ...the minute we walked out he said "Let's go
for Bak-kut teh!"
