Temper Temper

Temper.. Temper..

Lately, I’ve been loosing my temper a lot. Why? How come? I don’t know. Maybe it’s a hormone thing. Yeah! Blame it on the hormones.. it’s great to be a woman. Kesian Kakak and Adik.. I really don’t know why. Maybe it’s pressure? What pressure? I’m not working, I’m a full time housewife. So what is it? Money? Boredom? A mix of both?

I know most of the working mom out there prefer to spend more time with their children. Everyone of them would say, how lucky u r… *LUCKY? Sigh..* how I wish I could stay home.. *STAY HOME?*.. Best tak payah kerja.. *BEST?*.. I don’t know. I’ve been staying home since I got married. Do I feel lucky? Yes.. I do. Best tak kerja… mmg best. So why must I feel bored? Doing the same thing all over again? Or is it because I’ve been staying with my parents too long? I don’t know… SIGH…

To study or not to study...

Been thinking about this for quite some time now. Still haven't decided yet. Pening jugak bila memikir kan bab nih. Teringin nak study sesangat but at the same time takut tengah study kemalasan melanda. Then again kena cari sponsor dulu, but then layak ke dapat sponsor? Slalu kalau sponsor kena terikat, kalau ambik Skim Latihan Tenaga Pengajar Muda kena terikat (kalau diterima la). PHd at least terikat 10 tahun. Sanggup ke jadi Lecturer selama 10 tahun. Nak mengajar pun tak berapa gemar sangat. Yelah, sapa la kita nak ngajar org ni. Waduh... Fenin.. fenin... But then again, sronok jugak nak ngajar nih. Hmm entah ler.. Solat Istikharah nampak gayanya.

Another thing is... what to study. Dah satu hal lagi pulak. In order to research something intresting that I can do, or I want to do memang susah. Semua ni conclude to ONE thing... I dont know Me or Me dont know I.. I.. Me.. Me.. I.. Who am I..?! Who I am?! Have to get back to basic I guess.. Proses mengenal diri sendiri... Hampehh....

Ramadhan hampir tiba..

Dah lepas nisfu Syaaban, Ramadhan dah hampir. Dah sedia ke? Macam blom aja. This year Ramadhan akan surely lain dari other Ramadhan. Firstly, memula plan nak posa kat rumah sendiri, mcm tak jadi aja. Sbbnya my beloved hubby kena pi Japan for 3 weeks. So he'll be much at ease kalau I stay with my parents. Tapi with him not around tu.. dah biasa dah. So nothing much to it. Will miss him a lot though... *sigh*.

Anyway, lagi satu kezutan pada Ramadhan akan datang nih is that my beloved grandma will be spending her Ramadhan with us. First time... sepanjang idup. Why?! She's feeling lonely... teringat my late granpa kot. Sian dkt dia. Trying to pujuk my mom to pindah balik perlis, tapi mcm tak nak aja. Semuanya sbb my grandma willing to come here.. Apa2 pun.. it's good to have 'org lama' dkt rumah. Banyak petua dan nasihat yg blh digunakan. Yihaa..

Apa2 pun... Ramadhan hampir tiba, persiapkan diri dengan sebaiknya. Bukan sekadar utk mendapatkan mlm Lailatul Qadar saja but to kumpul pahala yg berlipat x ganda sempena Ramadhan..

First time...

Yesterday for the first time, I bake muffins. Tak pernah terpikir lansung nak buat muffin, sbb I dont really like muffins, or cakes (xcept for cheesecake) or donuts or biscuits etc. So bila dah tak suka nak masak lagi la kan?! Xpin is more of a cake person. She began to bake cakes or biskut raya when she's only 12. So anything yg melibatkan cake or seangkatan dgnnya semua tugas diserahkan dkt dia.

I'm more into cooking western dish. Lasagna (yg diminati ramai... ahaks), spaghetti (juga diminati ramai), cheese steak (chicken or beef), potato n brocolli salad etc... Nasi, mee, mihun semua tu blh jugak and blh tahan jugak sedapnya.. hahahaha but lagi prefer to try masak western food. So far tak pernah fail.

So berbalik pada muffins yg dibuat ptg semlm, I choose to buat chocolate chip muffins. (Sebenarnya tak teringin pun nak buat, tapi atas influence MamiA, and dok pikir mungkin budak2 akan tergila2 so they'll eat something.. so try la jugak). Blh tahan jugak sedapnya, cuma a little bit sweet for my taste. Budak2 suka jugak tapi tak la tergila2. So the verdict, no more cooking muffins, cakes or biscuits.. hehehehe I'll stick to western food and everyday cooking.

This is how it looks like out from the oven	A rather flat muffin

Waaa... Part 2

Ok blh smbg balik...

23th August - Bibi balik Perlis mlm, since dia kerja ikut time dia so dia blh balik anytime la. Same day ma pa balik kl. Balik mlm naik flight. Heran kenapa ma balik. Dah mintak dia tunggu tok abah, but she insisted that pa soh balik for her chemo treatment. Pelik kenapa la nak rush2 when somebody is fighthing for his life.

24th August - It seems that dr kata harapan is very very slim. Ma was admitted, berbelah bagi nak balik perlis tgk Tok Abah or nak dok KL teman ma. Last2 decided to dok KL aja. Bengang jugak sbb kena berbelah bagi mcm tu. If ma dkt perlis x balik KL lagi, hari tu jugak dah balik Perlis. What to do. dah tertulis.

25th August - Dpt msg dari Bibi 'Tok Abah BP is very low 50/30, dr is trying to pump his heart. PLs tell ur mom'. MasyaAllah, rasa guilty tak balik semlm. At 11.15am my only Granpa passed away. He was 84. His story came out the news the next day. http://202.188.124.45/events/merdeka2005/newsfull.php?id=152159

Al- Fatihah....

Waaa...

Lamanye tak berblog nih.. Banyak betul benda yg jadi. Tup tap tup tap tau tau dah sebulan lebih dah tak blog. Sebulan 6 hari to be exact. First and foremost I would like to wish 'HAPPY 2nd BIRTHDAY' to my beloved BAZLEEN. Dah besar dah anak mama. Makin notti.. makin bijak.. semoga panjang umur, murah rezeki, dijauhkan dari segala penyakit dan lastly.. the most important thing is semoga Allah menjadikan adik anak yg solehah. Aminnnn...

OK.. let me list down apa yg jadi the whole month yg kononnya busy tu.

1. Adik was admitted on the 7th pm.. around 23:30, because of 'slider bronchitis' (apa benda pun tak sure). Keluar on the 10th masa jerubu menyerang Lembah Klang dgn teruknya.

2. Then dpt tau Tok Abah was admitted. Jatuh dlm bilik, was found unconsious in weird position. Tgn sebelah still atas katil. Lain2 body part jatuh. There's some blood dkt dagu. Was rushed to hospital. Turn out that ada blood clogged dkt center of the brain. Depa rasa he tried to get up and belaga kepala dkt bawah meja tepi. And ada sikit heart problem. Tok Abah never ada problem dgn heart, pelik. Wallahuaklam..

3. Accident!! First accident in my life... di tarikh bersejarah 14 August 2005, after 10 years pegang lesen. I was sure there's no car or bike around. I'm not careless tapi nak buat mcmana.. accident dah nak jadi. Abis kereta Xpin. Sian dia. I was in shocked for abt 24 hrs. Rasa guilty yg amat sangat dkt Xpin, sbb kereta baru dia dah tercemar. Kreta masuk workshop on the 15th.

4. Feel strongly utk balik Perlis and tgk Tok Abah. Something amiss there. Lagipun Tok Umi mmg dah admitted because of lung infection, sbb jerubu. Blh tgk Tok Umi sekali. But then dpt sms from Nda on the 16th (dia dkt Perlis) saying 'Tok Abah is recovering, dah mula mkn, dah blh minum and dah start melawak'. Still rasa that I should go back and see him. Bgtau Zul, he said Tok Abah dah ok sikit tu, kita pergi later. I said ok. Walaupun hati tak senang.

5. 17th August - dpt news yg Tok Abah akan dimasukkan ke CCU. It seems that BP dia drop rather drastically. Terus ckp dkt mama, we have to balik now. Kelam kelibut sekejap time tu. Semua nak balik, mcmana nak balik? Takkan pakai 3 kereta kot. 3 pun tak cukup.. kena 4.. Last last dpt pinjam Unser Mc.. then pinjam kereta kwn Xpin. Terpaksa, Wira merah masuk workshop, wira 1 lg tukar dgn unser mc. Rush to the airport, antar mama by flight. Mama tak blh travel lama2. Alhamdulillah dpt tiket. Then rush balik rumah, tukar kereta dgn Mc, last2.. around 23:30 baru bertolak balik Perlis. At that time mama dah selamat lawat Tok Abah and dia dah selamat lena.

6. Reached Perlis around 05:00am, A.Arif and family minus T2 pun arrived at the same time. dpt tido sekejap before berangkat ke hospital utk jengok Tok Abah. Jumpa Tok Abah, dia ngadu misi jahat, yg baju biru. Semuanya sbb misi terpaksa ikat tgn and kaki di bed sbb Tok Abah mengamuk nak balik and bukak abis all the wires. Sabaq Tok Abah, mcmana nak baik. (Sedih tgk Tok Abah, muka dah berubah, bengkak, bdn2 pun nampak bengkak.)

7. 19th August - Happy Birthday to Papa. Happy 62nd Birthday!! Bagi new handphone, at all abis. Mana duit ni... sorang pun tak bayaq lagi! Ma call Apiq, soh balik.. ajak Atief. Balik sekarang utk tgk Tok Abah. More bad news, BP Tok Abah jatuh lagi, Kidney not functioning, Tok Abah dah tak sedaq. But just before life support tube dimasukkan Tok Abah bukak mata and sedaq, papa and ami sempat suruh Tok Abah ngucap, Alhamdulilah. Tok Abah dah on life support. Tok Umi ngamuk, nak dok sebelah Tok Abah. X boleh, tu kan CCU. Tok Umi nangis on her way back to her ward.

8. 20th August - Bibi cried, said that Tok Abah punya rupa berlain sangat2. By this time Tok Abah dah tak bukak mata dah. Dr bagi dialysis treatment. Semua sepakat tak mau bg tok Umi tgk Tok Abah, sbb tau she will definitely cry and mungkin mengamuk dkt situ. Most importantly tak mau bg dia risau. True enough, lps tgk Tok Abah semlm dia tak lalu mkn and BP naik mendadak. Ngamuk tak mau mkn ubat. Dato Ustaz Nordin melawat, bgtau that nobody should tinggaikan Tok Abah alone. Mesti ada 2 org sekali dgn Tok Abah at all times. Sorang ngucap ditelinga, sorang lagi baca ayat kursi. kenapa ayat kursi bukan yasin?! Daripada explaination Tok Abah masa sihat2 dulu, katanya yasin baca utk diri sendiri, kalau org tgh nazak bacalah ayat kursi, supaya syaitan tak datang mengganggu. MMg time nazak syaitan yg dtg ganggu kan?! Kami anak cucu just follow apa yg dia kata.

9. 21st August - Tok Abah still mcm tu, but kami semua kena balik. Compensionate leave masing2 dah tamat. Lagipun Unser mc road tax mati hari ni, road tax kwn xpin pulak abis 25th. Punya la nak jadi cerita. Nak tak nak balik jugak. Bibi pun balik, cuma tinggal Nda and Bibicik.

Later sambung.. penat la pulak

Been a while..

since I last blog... Lots of things has happened. Good things.. Alhamdulillah. It's not that the sky is always blue but I'd like it to be that way all the time. Here's the list of the good things:-

1. Back to SKI YAHOOOO!!!
2. Mom is feeling better...
3. Mom is looking better..
4. Back to SKI... Yahoooo..!!
5. Dapat souvenir fr Australia...!
6. Back to SKI again.. yahoo...!

So that's why it's been a while... because back home (idup SKI!!!) there's no phone line. So if u see me blogging, it means I'm not at home. hahahaha.. over and out!! - for now

Jariku...

melecur ketika berkhidmat, lama tak rasa kesakitannya. adus...

Mana nih...

rata - rata dok cari mana botol susu adik. 'Tadi ada dia pgg botol dia and bawak keluar'. 'Tadi bila?' 'Baru tat sat'. 'Dia pi mana lepas tu?'. 'Dapoq la ikut kakak'. Isk... mana hilang pulak ni... kawan dah teriak abis abisan dah.

'Ni dia!!'. At last, botol adik dah dijumpai, dlm laci. Isk.. isk.. isk... tak de org lain la tu. Adik punya kerja la tu. What to do.. dialah shinchan ku.. hehehe

Just the way u r..

Don't go changing, to try and please me
You never let me down before
Don't imagine you're too familiar
And I don't see you anymore
I wouldn't leave you in times of trouble
We never could have come this far
I took the good times, I'll take the bad times
I'll take you just the way you are
Don't go trying some new fashion
Don't change the color of your hair
You always have my unspoken passion
Although I might not seem to care
I don't want clever conversation
I never want to work that hard
I just want someone that I can talk to
I want you just the way you are.
I need to know that you will always be
The same old someone that I knew
What will it take till you believe in me
The way that I believe in you.
I said I love you and that's forever
And this I promise from the heart
I could not love you any better
I love you just the way you are......

Billy Joel..

Plane..

'Kita nak naik plane ke mama', 'Not us sweatheart.. bibi is going'. 'When are we going?'. 'Someday, maybe next year... just be patience ok?!' 'OK'.

Adoi mak, jeles siut. Teringin nak g oversea lagi, enjoy, relaks2, mkn angin.... Sokay, the day will come. My target is to go at least 1 place every year. (boleh ke dpt ni?) have to do something to boost our income.

Xpin should arrived in Sydney around 20:00, about 17:00 Malaysia time. She was a nervous wreck. Al maklum.. her first time flying oversea. Not to mention ALONE! But hope she enjoy her stay there and bring home lots of souvenir! Hehehe

ENJOY Sis!

Pokok klapak...

Everytime I see Adlin...
My heart bergoncang...
Everytime I am thinking of you...
Pagi dan petang...
I forget to eat my makan...
Cause there's no other boy...
but this one... eeii malu...
Undernearth pokok kelapak
I will wait for you...
Oh! Adlin... hear me lah...
Dont tutup pintu
Cause your hair is like penyapu...
Cause I know it is full of kutu...

Kenapa..

mama sakit? Mcmana nak jawab soklan nih? Kenapa la kakak suka tanya soklan cepumas?!?!?!?!?


Rasa sejuk satu badan, virus dah menyerang kot. Demam tak de.. tapi


I get so weak in the knees
I can hardly speak
I lose all control and something takes over me
In a daze ...... (weak, SWV)

Jeles poyo..!!!

Teramat jeles.. esok lusa Xpin pi Ostotolia... nak ikuttt..!!

'Ma..

masak nasik grg utk kakak, ma masak sedap. Mbok tak reti masak.'

Pandai la tu membodek, dah tentu dia mkn nasik grg kicap ikan bilis telur aje. Sori kakak, nasik tak de, mee aje la ek. 'OK'.. 'Mbok, mama kita pandai masak, mbok tak reti....!!' Ish budak nih, tak de kerja la tu dok mengapi org. Dah sudah... sibuk nak masak sama pulak. Nak potong bawang la.. nak pecah telur la.. 'Nanti ye kakak... dah besar sikit lagi, umur 5 taun mama ajar kakak masak.' 'OK'.

Fuh lega... bukan tak mau dia involve dlm hal memasak ni, cukup la setakat tolong ambik kicap, pinggan, telur dulu, bab pepotong ni bahya sikit. Bukan dia tak blh buat.. blh.. cuma takut nanti bila kita tak ada... dia pepandai buat sendiri. Mcm the other day, dia buatkan susu utk adik dia sendiri2. Susu pass!! but tgn dia kena air panas. So how?! Nak larang pun tak blh sgt, I believe it's a part of learning, so terpaksa guna kuasa 'MAMA' jgn buat susu adik time mama tak ada. Kalau tak dengar cakap mama, tgn kena air panas lagi. So far kalau dia tak dengar ckp mama something bad happened, like jatuh kerusi, luka kaki, benjol kepala.

So pendek kata... Dengar cakap ibu dan bapa... jgn derhaka..

Tersumbat...

pulak idung nih... sorethroat pun ada balik. Lembik aja rasa... isk isk isk

p/s- Mami A... jom tidoq!

Adi accident....

kereta total lost. Ami bgtau yesterday morning around 08:15...

Mcmana? Bila? Dgn sapa?... Elak anjing, langgar anjing, langgar pokok. Pukul 03:00 on the way back from late dinner after work (he's a chef at one of Langkawi's hotel). Anjing the culprit.. and I bet he's driving at high speed. Look at the car...

So how's Adi? He only suffers a crack at his collar bone and a small tear at his cuping telinga. Only received an outpatient treatment. ??? How..?? Kuasa Allah... and the airbag helped him too. He's not wearing seat belt too... Alhamdulillah he is save...

Focus before the accident. It's my uncle's car..

'Cepat.. something wrong with kakak..

dia dah jaga but cannot open her eyes, nak mama aja'. Mama called around 07:55 this morning when I'm on my way to renew my licence. Dah pulak, what happened ek? Kakak was ok when I left her 55mins ago, so apa dah jadi? OK.. she was quite restless last nite, moaning, crying while sleeping, but I thought she's just too tired because all the playing yesterday. But then again when children are involved.... u can never be too careful.

Laaaa PO Shah Alam ni tak bukak lagi, pukul 08:30 rupanya baru bukak. Baru pukul 08:00, aiseh, nak tunggu ka tak ni? Balik la dulu, tgk kakak. I like to renew my licence dekat PO Shah Alam Seksyen 13, sbb service very fast I dont have to wait. Just ambik no, tak sempat duduk dia dah panggil. Nanti la ajak Xpin gi, lesen mati semlm. hehehe...

Hari ni I send my hubby terus ke KL, just to prove a point that if u keluar dari rumah at 07:00, u can reach ur office by 07:30. True enough la, by 07:20 dia dah sampai ofis. Hahahaha

p/s-there's nothing wrong with kakak, she's just too tired and sleepy

Almost...

accident tadi. It was raining, we're on our way back home from Bangsar when this selfish mercedes driver suddenly break just after masuk flyover nak ke PJ. Silap jln agaknya, but then mana boleh buat mcm tu. Becoz of that, a car behind him had to break emergency, and disebabkan itu jugak Xpin break and skidded but manage to control her car thanks to my hubby words 'kiri.. kiri... kona kiri Xpin'. Isk.. isk... iskk..

Here is a few tips.. kalau u drive laju, hari hujan, don't break, just shift your gear down.. to gear 2 or if desperate 1. This will immediately slower your car. Don't forget to look to your next lane make sure it's clear before you kona masuk. The most important tip is.. DON'T PANIC!! Xpin panic, but thankfully my hubby ada sekali and manage to guide her through. Way to go Abang!

Dah besar..

dah anak - anak mama...

cute... cute... macam mak dia jugak... hahahhahaha

Bowling...

Ptg ni nak gi bowling.. more like tengok bowling aja la kot. Askariah 2 org tu follow sekali payah sikit nak main. Tak pa la.. kita tgk aja org main. First time nak gi bowling alley dkt Bangsar Shopping Complex, tpt Cannie Ong kena abducted and later murder elsewhere. Bet tak secanggih Sunway Piramid bowling alley... ye la.. if not tak de la major tournaments buat kat Sunway Piramid kan?!

Aromatherapy....

was introduced to my mom by my business minded aunty. She said she'll pay for all expenses, please bring ur mom to this place... to urut her with this aromatherapy style. I totally forgot about it, and my aunty had to rescheduled. Another date was set.. she went for her 1st treatment last saturday. I was supposed to accompany her but decided that I should stay home with my husband instead. However I managed to persuade Xpa, my sis, to 'teman' my mom.

After a long day, Xpa came back and told me that the person in charge wispered to her 'nasib baik u bwk ur mom now, if it's two months or three months later she might be more serios. ur mom punya blood dah 70% clogged, that is why she's in pain. If not, your mom could suffer heart attack or paralyzed because of the clog'. Xpa was given the tugas to 'sapu' minyak aromatherapy on her every nite and bring her to urut for the next two weeks. I, on the other hand was given a list of what my mom can eat and what to avoid.

Aduih... pening pala juga pikiaq nih, ye la.. kalau tak tau masak tak pa jugak. Ni expert sangat.. tu yang payah tu..

Meme...

cepat la baik.. boleh main dgn kakak ngan adik. 'Balqis tolong doakan bg meme cpt baik la, ok?' my mom will reply. My mom sambung MC lagi, sampai end of the month. She looks very much in pain and very weak.

On the 18th Jun.. my father hantar sms to almost all of his sedara maras, informing them about my mom. My mom was very down that day, which is why my father sms semua org. Nobody knows my mom better than my father, his 'strategy' works. Abis aja weekend tu.. my mom feels a little bit better, sbb ramai yg datang melawat. My mom ni jenis yg enjoy company, tak blh dok sendiri2.. she'll feel restless. So bila ramai yg dah mai melawat, dia punya spirit increase.. and better chance or healing.

Since that day.. mmg ramai betul yg datang, including my grandparents yg uzur. Sanggup turun dari Perlis on the 25th semata2 nak tgk anak sulong dia yg sakit. A surprise visit by them, mama tak tau. She cried the instance dia nampak both of her parents. Terkesima kejap, sbb masa tu la terasa betapa mak pak dia sayang kat dia.

Moga meme cepat sembuh....

SKI.. miss u so much..

It's been 2 weeks dah tak balik rumah di Sungai Kapar Indah. Since my mom sakit balik, dpt 2 weeks MC since early jun, we've been spending time here. Baru balik sekali last nite untuk ambik baju.. Uwaaa.. miss my home sweet home very much..

Actually we all baru move to our own house after almost 5 years staying with my parents. 4 years and 10 month to be exact. (Itu tak termasuk the years sebelum kawin, tu tak kira.. hehehehe). My daughters pun seronok balik sana. Ye lah.. rumah sendirikan, nak semak ke nak bagi pecah itu ini pun tak kisah.. mama sporting. Lagipun padang permainan dpn rumah, what more can u ask for.. betul tak kakak? (kakak is the name we all call Balqis)

Now, we're back at my mother's place, kakak asyik dok tanya bila nak balik. Sabar ye kakak, bila 'meme' baik kita balik ye...

Alhamdulillah...

Welcome home Mami A..... !!

Back to normal..

Every body dah balik Perlis, semua dah sunyi sepi..

Best jugak cuti hari tu.. on the 4th ramai2 gi A'Famosa Wet World. 3 cars altogether. Best siut. Balqis and Bazleen had a marvellous time. They spend the whole day in the water... wow... boleh tahan budak2 nih. Ada show from Shiela Majid, introduce her whole family... Acis, handsome boleh tahan jugak..

On the way back, we target to reach home b4 20:30... ye la.. 1st AF concert start mlm tu, jam la pulak. we have to queue utk keluar dari A'Famosa. About 1km nak sampai exit, cari tiket masuk tak ada. Puas korek sana sini, tak jumpa. Terpaksa berhentikan kereta by the road side and search dlm beg. X ada... ALAMAK..!!

Then cari another bag, the only possible bag yg patut ada, the bag is missing.. cari the person yg bawak bag..

not in my car, should be in his father's car, that's what his elder brother said lah.

You see, masa bertolak pergi, my 2 cousins age 8 and 7, naik ikut my car, so masa balik... I ask the brother la, mana 'Ammar, he said 'naik kreta lid'. 'Ammar was carrying my kids bag, so I think (hope actually) the ticket must be inside that bag la.

''Ammar kan dlm kreta Toca' my uncle said. Habis...!! 'Ammar hilang... kena patah balik. Kalau bag hilang.. or tiket hilang tak pa lagi... ni org hilang..!! My husband pecut patah balik, 'Ammar's sister, 'Ainan, hop into our car and follow skali. My husband drop us dkt entrance masuk Wet World tu and dia pergi cari dkt car park. Last2 I saw him dkt Information Counter, holding back his tears, with my bag and my ticket... Alhamdulillah..

Lega rasanya.

Bila pikir2 balik.. mmg betul seperti yg Allah katakan 'setiap kejadian ada hikmahnya'.. Yelah.. in this case, kalau tak hilang tiket, sure tak perasan bag hilang and tak perasan kata 'Ammar tak dak. Kalau dah sampai Klang baru sedar, satu hal pulak nak patah balik. Si 'Ammar ni pulak.. disebabkan terlampau takut, dia bagi mix no fon dkt org A'Famosa tu, no awal no umi.. no akhir no lid. sampai sudah tak dpt.. Syukur Alhamdulillah.

p/s - Mami A? where are u? kata balik on the 9th, pesal tak sampai lagi? Tak pa.. I'll call ur house la nanti..

Cuti...

Cuti sekolah starts today. Last nite spend the nite dkt sini sbb early in the morning kena hantar Xpin pi airport. Ptg ni pulak will go to KLIA again.. hantar Mami A gi umrah. Bravo girl!!! Good for you. Dah tu tomorrow morning kena gi KL sentral pulak nak 'pick-up' my youngest sis and my cousins, 5 of them!!, yg akan sampai dlm pukul 7.30 pagi. Cuti baru nak start but dah start busy dah...

Mcm ni la kalau dah jadi homemaker nih, cuti sekolah aje busy... busy.. busy...
Gotta catch up with my sleep.. ngantuks...

Stages of breast CA

Stage 0
This stage is used to describe non-invasive breast cancer. There is no evidence of cancer cells breaking through to or invading neighboring normal tissue.

Stage I
This stage describes invasive breast cancer (cancer cells are breaking through to or invading neighboring normal tissue) in which
The tumor measures up to two centimeters, AND
No lymph nodes are involved.

Stage II
This stage describes invasive breast cancer in which:
The tumor measures at least two centimeters, but not more than five centimeters, OR
Cancer has spread to the lymph nodes under the arm on the same side as the breast cancer. Affected lymph nodes have not yet stuck to one another or to the surrounding tissues, a sign that the cancer has not yet advanced to stage III. (The tumor in the breast can be any size.)

Stage III
Stage III is divided into subcategories known as IIIA and IIIB.

Stage IIIA
This stage describes invasive breast cancer in which:
The tumor measures larger than five centimeters, OR
The tumor has spread to lymph nodes, and nodes are clumping or sticking to one another or surrounding tissue.

Stage IIIB
This stage describes invasive breast cancer in which a tumor of any size has spread to the breast skin, chest wall, or internal mammary lymph nodes (located beneath the breast inside the chest)—and includes inflammatory breast cancer.

Inflammatory breast cancer
Inflammatory breast cancer is a very uncommon but very serious, aggressive type of breast cancer that is considered stage IIIB. The most distinguishing feature of inflammatory breast cancer is redness involving part or all of the breast. The redness feels warm. You may see puffiness of the breast's skin that looks like the peel of a navel orange ("peau d'orange"), or even ridges, welts, or hives. And part or all of the breast may be enlarged and hard. Inflammatory breast cancer is sometimes misdiagnosed as a simple infection.

Stage IV
This stage includes invasive breast cancer in which a tumor has spread beyond the breast, underarm, and internal mammary lymph nodes. The tumor may have spread to the supraclavicular lymph nodes (nodes located at the base of the neck, above the collarbone), lungs, liver, bone, or brain.

Additional stage information:
You may also hear terms such as "early" or "earlier" stage, "later" or "advanced" stage breast cancer. Although these terms are not medically precise (they may be used differently by different doctors), here is a general idea of how they apply to the official staging system:

Early stage:
Stage 0
Stage I
Stage II
Later stage:
(stage II if there are many lymph nodes involved)
Stage III (IIIA, IIIB)
Advanced stage:
Stage IV

Mama N CA..

I remember, a year ago dlm bulan May jugak I was in Kubang Kerian. Teman my mom and dad with my two kids n sis. My mom was having difficulty to walk, so with a help of my good friend (TQ MCNA) we managed to set an appoinment dgn HUSM who said to have the best bone specialist in Malaysia.

My mom was admitted at HUSM, buat 'total hip replacement' sbb her bone dah haus. what they did was.. they cut the bone (dlm circle merah) and replace dgn plastik similar to bone. It's not the hip yg dia tukar, but it was call 'total hip replacement' anyways.

My mom actually was diagnose with breast cancer in early 2001, when she suddenly notice that there's a 'lubang' (more like isi tenggelam) on her right breast. Being in the medical line, she's quite worried because any change in the look of ur breast may be a sign of breast cancer (CA). True enough, lps buat mamogram and biopsy, she had breast cancer.

An operation was done to remove the 'lump', and she had a series of radiotherapies. All that was done when I was pregnant with my first child. No wonder Balqis is sooo caring.

Been a while..

Uihhhh.. dah lama betul tak tulis blog ni. Kena start balik nih.
