yongqi long bia

1 may to 3 may, our whole family went melaka for church camp. the place is a kampong setting. the kids love the place very much. i was in charge of the program running. thus many sisters and brothers were helping me here and there to attend and entertain them. this is what i call family camp. i really thank God for every single of them. at first i thought of not bringing them, or just bring qi, to the camp as both were unwell few days before we set off. granny was still very worried of their well being and kept asking me not to bring them... at the end when she knew that qi was having fever, she even asked me not to go... but i told her i was in charge of program so i die die also have to go... Thank God, when they got there, they are all well and good... till now!!!

this morning as usual, i brought the kids to the void deck to wait for en's school bus. they were playing catch while waiting. after en boarded her bus, qi wanted to continue play catch with me. thus he ran very fast away from me... and the bad thing was, he ran with his head turned backward looking at me... he was running very fast... then i realised he was abt to hit a pillar. i called him and he turned... BANG!!! he hitted his forehead against the edge of the pillar. the impact was so hard that he literally bounced from the pillar onto the floor... OUCH! it was painfuli thought... and yes it was... and the worst thing i never thought of was, he started to bleed... then i realised he had a small but deep vertical cut at the center right of his forehead... Gosh! i panicked like what... i immediately used my palm to press hard on the wound to stop further bleeding... then i run around the void deck, asking myself what should i do... (yongqi pooed before he went downstair somemore lor... i thought should i bring him home to clean the poo first or what..) but the very thing i remember was, i prayed. asking my Lord to heal and cover him with His precious blood (oh ya, he already covered with blood actually, his own blood...) i carried him to my doorstep, realised that the bleeding was still quite bad, so i dashed down the stair again.. hailed a cab and off the changi hospital...

i really thank the cad driver who sent us to the hospital... i was so panicky and qi's face was covered with so much blood.. with palm still pressing on the wound, i kept talking to qi, making sure that he was conscious and responsive... he was ok... but looked tired.. i guess he was shocked. seeing this, the driver suggested us to go changi hospital instead of kk (kk and east shore were my list of hospital to go at that moment...) and when we reached there, he refused to receive payment. he asked me to quickly send the boy to the emergency clinic... really thank him so much. may God bless this malay driver abundantly...

at the hospital, yongi did not shed a tear. he was so quiet... the doc and nurses were so amazed by him.. they kept praising him that he is brave. even when they need to glue the wound (i was asked to choose stitching or glueing... to avoid going back to the hospital to remove the stitch, i chose glueing... but i have to be careful not to let him rub the wound and keep it out of water for 5 days), they put stick a gauze on the eyes to prevent the glue from getting into the eyes, he was calm and steady... at the same time, there was a lady who was in the same room receiving treatment from knee and palm injury (resulted from fall), she was making hissing noise when receiving treatment... haha... my boy so brave...

the doctor said that qi needs to be monitored for a few hours... in case any vomiting or high fever or other abnormal behavior. he needs to be rushed into the hospital... In Jesus' name, i claim that he will be ok!

as the cut is a vertical cut, doc said there will be a scar on the forehead in future... hahaha... guess what my respond was.. i said its ok, he is a boy, that will enhance his machoness!!!kekeke this reminded me of zhihao... when he git hurt on his forehead, i told him the same thing!!! then he asked me why not i purposely cut yongqi to enhance his machoness.... i told him of course i wont do that purposely la.... so HEY CHIN ZHIHAO, NOW MY BOY ALSo GOT THE SAME CUT AS YOU ALMOST AT THE SAME PLACE LOR... AND I AM OK WITH THE SCAR... HE LOOKS SO MACHO WITH IT!!!! kekeke...
