Blood samples and medications...

“To ensure good health: eat lightly, breathe deeply, live moderately, cultivate cheerfulness, and maintain an interest in life.” -William Londen

(Cancer awareness campaign)

I was in Pantai Hospital for my follow-up visit with my heart specialist.

I had not eaten anything since dinner last night as they need to have my blood and urine samples for some tests. My appointment was early. My blood pressure records for the past weeks showed abnormally low readings. My doctor told me that low blood pressure might be ok for someone else but for me it may cause light-headedness and nausea.

I was advised to stop taking my bp medications for the time being. I have to monitor my bp daily and to inform him of any irregularities.

Fighting Breast Cancer...

“Every negative belief weakens the partnership between mind and body.” – Deepak Chopra

(The three sisters reciting the Yaseen)

My sister Amah was diagnosed with breast cancer.

When she was diagnosed early last year she was already at advanced stage 3. She is now undergoing chemotherapy treatments. She was emotionally affected and trying her best to cope with her worry, fear and feeling of anxiety.

Those close to her are around to care for her and help her deal with these challenges. May Allah blessed her with strength to fight her cancer and fully recover soon, InsyaAllah...

A wedding at Eco-Sky...

We attended Hj. Zack and Hajjah Kay wedding reception for their granddaughter at Lanai Anggun Eco-Sky. Hj Zack was not at the reception as he was at the moment resting at home on doctor's order to because of lung infection.

The reception went well and the food is delicious.

Celebrating the Prophet’s birthday…

“Time unfolds beauty, wonder, and mystery to reveal the auspicious tapestry of life.”

(A group photo with Imam Fitri)

The observance of the birthday of the prophet Muhammad is commemorated in Rabi’ul-awwal, the third month in the Islamic calendar.

As we are still in the month of Rabi’ul-awwal, Muslimat of Masjid Negara has organised a simple event to commemorate the birth of the Prophet at our Masjid At-Tayyibin. On this auspicious day, which coincide with the Muslimat Kahfi class we started the event with a short Maulidur Rasul tazkirah by Imam Fitri followed by the recital of surah Al-Kahfi, tahlil dan doa selamat.

The event ended with the selawat and distribution of bunga telur and packed food. Alhamdulillah...
