Monday, May 12 Mothers' Day was an opportunity for my extended family on my maternal side to gather once more. I haven't seen all of us together since the passing of my Mama. So what better opportunity to cater yummy high tea and have a get-together? I was ready to fork out my share of the high tea (a treat to our Moms), but little did I know my parents were paying for it. The also saw a good opportunity yesterday and made it a Mothers' Day cum 25th Wedding Anniversary gathering! Smart of them, ha. Hmmm ... the chocolate eclairs, I think I must have had 8 of them! Got to see my darling nieces after so long, and they're cute as ever! It was so heartwarming to see their look of genuine concern on their young faces, eyebrows burrowed over their huge innocent eyes upon seeing me on crutches. And I got some tender 'sayang-ing' from them. I guess I needed some activity around in the house after a week of confinement. But time still crawled slowly for me. Dad opened a bottle of ice wine and another bottle of dessert wine, tried to drink a glass, but gave up after I started feeling a bit high. Couldn't risk being unsteady one-legged! I can't wait for Thursday when I finally get to see a sports doctor at Changi General, however I'm also fearful of the prognosis. I am very willing to lay off badminton, Muay Thai and running for a while if I don't have to undergo surgery. *fingers crossed* I don't want to have to go for surgery. I can't imagine how much longer that will render me unable to do my sports. Rehab will be a very long process. Sigh. -->Whitney Houston - How Will I Know<-- |
