When Holiday Trip being Cancelled

We have cancelled our 2weeks holiday trip to sydney, as my brother condition suddenly drop.

Brought the ticket last year, wished by my mom, but family came first.

At first, my mom said that she will stayed here, and we shorten the holiday to a week period. Friday when doctor look at my bro, he also allowed to going home on monday, everything seem fine.

Just a day before our departure, Sunday, I look at my bro, like to sleep all the day. Suspect that was medicine side effect, but seem impossible cause it's almost a day. Told the ward doctor and requeat to done the blood test at night.

Monday morning, as planned we bring him home.
But he seem unconsious. Saw the blood test result, the level of ammonia is very high (75 from normal 35).
And I found out he didn't pup as much as he ate.
I remember read on the article about unconsious situation might happen on liver cancer because of the high level of ammonia. And the medicine shall be given was lactutose, for indused him to be able to pup.

Thanks God that my cousin who is a nurse was in Jakarta. And I called her to asked her opinion. She aksed me to used microlax or similar medicine for fastest response, also gave the lactutose.

After the medicine given from 3pm, my bro start to pup. And at noon, he start to gain his mind back.
He didn't remember what has happened.

We let our ticket at 6.30pm gone.

Starting that day, Josh date with Daddy all the time. Eat, sleep, play together.

Just today, we spent our morning in Eco park Ancol. Josh as usual, happy boy, ride the bicycle, gave a bread for pigeon. Funny when we heard Josh asked the pigeon "pigeon, sudah kenyang belum."
Despite everything that seem gloomy right now, don't let it take your heart and believed there a blessing.

With my Brother William UGD Friday 11 July 2014

Ini kali ketiga adikku masuk ke UGD rumah sakit.
Ia mengalami diare dan badannya sangat lemas sekali.

Aku menemaninya di UGD sementara Josh ikut papa kerja ke kantor.
Saaat memunggu diruang UGD, aku bertanya, apa yang kau pikirkan?
Dan ia menjawab, bahwa dia takut.
Karena berada di ruang UGD, aku tidak bertanya lebih lanjut lagi, apa maksud dari ketakutan dia.

Sesudah kami menempati ranjang 3015B, dan saat mulai tenang, aku pun bertanya, apakah ketakutannya?

Dia pun bercerita dengan suara yang sangat pelan dan sesekali air matanya juga ikut bercerita (kali pertama aku melihat adikku menangis setelah kepergian papa) bahwa dia berpikir saatnya mungkin akan tiba, dan bagaimana menghadapi ke depannya.
Dia juga tahu mengungkapkan bagaimana nantinya mama menghadapi hal ini.
Dia bercerita bagaimana selama ini dia tidak suka minum obat yang diberikan oleh mama, tapi dia tetap memaksa diri dia untuk minum, supaya mama boleh merasa tenang.
Ia sempat sharing bagaimana ia sebenarnya kadang juga labil, tapi ia belajar untuk tidak komplain demi menjaga perasaan mama.
Aku melihat bagaimana dalam kesakitannya dia memilih untuk menelan keegoisannya, agar supaya juga boleh menjadi saksi bagi mama.
Dia juga berkata bagaimana dia tidak berpikir untuk bersungut menyalahkan Tuhan. Walau dia enggak tahu ini mau kemana, pada akhirnya dia tetap bilang bahwa dia ingin terus setia didalam Tuhan.

Kali ini pula, aku diam mendengarkan saja suara dia yamg sayup sayup itu karena boleh dibilang kali ini lah dia ungkapkan perasaan dia yg lebih mendalam semenjak dia mulai sakit.
Namun baru kali ini pula aku merasakan kelegaan.

Bukankah adikku semakin parah, namun mengapa aku semakin lega?
Lega karena aku tahu bahwa dalam sakit penyakitnya ini, enggak akan dapat mengambil iman nya didalam Kristus Tuhan.

Perbincangan kamipun terputus saat nurse datang memeriksa william.

Holiday - Day 20 - Trial Music Course

During ny childhood, I remember my mom let me explore to lot of thing.
I want to do it also, especially in the music area.

I start to search a music school, and I'm quite interest with Yamaha Junior Music Course - suitable for age ranges from 4-6 years old. It's a group class, once a week, consist of maximal 10 participant, accompanied by parent.

Why a group not private?
Josh is on the age of imitating other. He like to played with other.
So, learn music in a group class will much suitable for him. Beside, I should attend the class too.

I bring Josh to the trial class. At first Josh hesistant to go inside the building.
Then, he saw someone familiar, he said to me, that child is his school friend.
Hmmm, I never saw that child on his class. Then, I talked to child mom and found out the child is from the same school but different class.
Oww, this is not the first time Josh told me how he recognize someone from his school even not on the same class.
Hmmm, I guess Josh really like to pay attention to his surrounding.

Ok, back to the music, after Josh saw the same age friend, he suddenly felt happy.

During the class, he follow the instruction well, he like to sing and seem he could enjoy the class.
The music teacher is very lively, it's a good thing when interact with children.

At the end, mom sign up for the Junior Music Course.
For next semester, let's explore music together Josh. Hope you enjoy it.
