In Hospital

Today marks the 17th day in hospital for my mother-inlaw who
is suffering from end stage gall bladder cancer.She lies in bed
heavily sedated with morphine due to pain . Illness and pain
brings us to our knees in prayer.This episode makes us realise
how precious life is.

I am busy helping out with the rest of the family to
look after her at Johore Specialist Centre. I admire her
strength as she goes through peaks and valleys of her
treatment. As a family, we take steps to make her as
comfortable and painless as possible. Behind all sickness
is finally the sovereign hand of God.
