Gone to the jungle to see the falls...

Recently, my wife and I, plus a few friends, went jungle trekking. It was a great adventure indeed as we connected with nature. Here is the link to the pictures via Picassa.

The all clear

Visitors may notice that I do not keep this blog as updated as my FaceBook. I am keeping this blog as it allows those who need the book Face to Face with Cancer to download the pdf editions here. Also, for those who follow my column, Sunday Starters (previously Monday Starters), I keep most of the articles here also though I am aware there may be missing links for the older ones.
Well, I wish to update the good news about my cancer journey. On April 23, I did the PET-CT scan and the results were all clear. See how happy I am, holding the test results. All organs are clear and the nose area, where the cancer was, is also clear. Praise God. If you want to comment, please also send me an email at ewejin@gmail.com. Somehow if you just post your comment here, there is no way I can connect to you in reply.

A Blessed Christmas to One and All

Finishing the race

It's been quite a marathon but on Sept 9, I finally finished my treatment journey. The healing process will take some time after this but I am confident that all will be well. To God Be The Glory!

Light at the end of the tunnel

Yeah. This week, I have 5 rounds of RT left and Friday will be the last round.

I will rest for a couple of weeks and should be back at work soon.

It has been truly a marathon but with God's covering, I will finish the race.

Halfway through RT....

I don't really update this blog as much as I update my FB. But this is a bit dated so just to share that I have now crossed the halfway point of my RT regime. The side effects - painful throat, ulcers, loss of taste, etc - have kicked in. Part of the turf, as the doctor would put it.

I am ok otherwise, still resting and recuperating at home, write my column on Monday.

Thank you all for concerns and prayers.

As usual, if you somehow only got to know of me through this blog, kindly email me at ewejin@gmail.com as posting your comments here somehow do not allow me to connect with you. :(

After chemo, a new journey begins..

Like the last time, this is the mask that will be placed over my head as I undergo RT. Pretty cool-eh?

Glad to report that I have finished my chemotherapy. The sixth and final round was on July 11. The onco has recommended that I undergo 35 rounds of radiotherapy starting July 25.

This will be administered daily except on weekends. It seems to be similar to what I had to go through during my first journey in 1999.

But I understand the RT machine is much better and more precise so hopefully the side effects won't be as bad.

I thank God for covering me with so much love and prayers from family and friends, and even total strangers who connect with me via my writings.

God Bless You All. Again, if you desire to comment on this post, do also send me an email at ewejin@gmail.com otherwise I would have no way of responding to you. :)
