2014 Happy (Not) Birthday

10 years ago, I didnt have a happy birthday. My dad fell very ill right before my birthday and even before I begin my polytechnic studies. He had stroke, but miraculously, my dad recovered 90%. This year, I hope miracle will happen again.

This year, 2 days before my birthday, my dad fell very ill again. He has been in and out of the hospital 3 times throughout these 3 weeks. The doctors did many tests, scans, etc on him but no report could give an answer on why my dad was often giddy & had seizures. I pray really hard for him to recover. It has been a tiring 3 weeks not just for him, but the whole family. When the phone rings in the middle of the night, I get very afraid that it is the hospital calling or my dad calling.

We've tried rushing down to the hospital in the middle of the night to check on my dad after getting the hospital's call, arriving at the hospital to see that my dad is being tied up because he was always trying to run out of the hospital or hearing him talk about many many weird things. It aches to see him like that and makes me feel so helpless about it.

Dad, please recover soon! I know you can do it with your strong will, to overcome this obstacle. 加油!
