Hope you do not mind my posting in the blog the not so pretty pictures of David's ulcers in his mouth and tougue. Just thought of sharing with all who care for David how awful the ulcers look and certainly how painful it must have been for David. Even his gums are so looking so fiercely red.
He coughed so much last night that he hardly slept. Each cough was so forceful that we were worried if his ribs and bones would be affected. He consulted Dr William and was requested to do an X-ray of his chest even though his next medical appointment is not due yet. Thank God for Dr Wiliam. Even though he has no clinic today, he still made special arrangement to see David. We cannot thank God enough for him. The X-ray result showed that his right lung is a little hazy. Suspected possible GVHD from his mouth progressing to his throat and lung. Dr William prescribed some other immunosuppressant drugs. Please pray that the Lord will make effective all the drugs David is taking to treat the symptoms as well as the root problem without causing harm to his body.
Also, please pray that he can eat well. His appetite has been poor lately as a result of the severe pain he felt due to the ulcers. May the Lord deliver him from this agony soon, according to His great mercy and compassion, in Jesus name I pray. Amen!
Thanks & God bless,

All normal
David had a colonoscopy done today at SGH and praise the Lord all is normal!
He is scheduled for MRI on 05Jul. Please continue to pray that all is well with his body - that the MRI result will testify the miraculous healing of the Lord.
He is having fever again today, from 37.9 this morning to 38.2 half an hour ago. Please pray for good immunity to fight the viral or bacteria infection causing the cough and fever. Please also pray for all who are unwell to receive good health and healing in Jesus name!

Thankful for being able to celebrate!
We are so thankful to be able to throw a birthday party for Joshua last Sat. He turned 6 on 20th of Jun. Initially he was relunctant to go to the church camp because he wanted to celebrate his birthday with his friends in Singapore not in KL. It turned out that he got to celebrate his birthday twice - in KL at the camp and again last sat with our families, friends and relatives. It was a special birthday party because this year his own friends (kindergarten friends) not just children of his daddy and mummy's friends came to celebrate with him.
He had thought when daddy insisted that we should go for the church camp that he was not important to us and that the camp was more important. It was the Holy Spirit who gave me wisdom to explain to him that we should put God first and when faced with such circumstances, we should choose God's will. I told him the story of Abraham and Issac and how God tested Abraham's faith by asking him if he would sacrifice his son. Josh eventually understood that none of us should become an idol (anything that takes the place of the love for God) in any of our lives because we should love God with all our hearts, soul and mind and might. I was amazed that the Lord enabled him to comprehen this important truth.
As you can see from the pictures, he was so blessed isn't it? He loved football so much that he wore a football jersey for his birthday celebration, had a football field cake and even got to play football with his friends and cousins. He had a great time and his friends' mummies also shared with me the children enjoyed themselves tremendously. I am thankful to all who came to bless Josh and us. It was a very very blessed time. "Thank you our dear dear Lord Jesus!"
Joshua's favorite uncle Pastor Pat also commented how good David looked compared to those days when he visited him at the hospital. Indeed, God's grace is sufficient for us.
Yes, we continue to seek His grace and mercy after the celebration. Both David and Joshua were down with fever and cough yesterday. If fact David was so sick, having fever at 38.3, was in bed most of the time and hardly eaten much. We witnessed more healing grace as he got better today. Josh is getting better too. Praise the Lord for His healing touch. As I give thanks, I am also praying and urge you to pray along with me:
1. for David's oral GVHD. His medical appointment today showed blood result was good but the GVHD in his mouth is causing his mouth to be dry and the skin inside his mouth is breaking down causing some pain. Please pray that his mouth will heal and the Lord will stop anymore GVHD in Jesus name.
2. for our China friend Ling Fen who is being treated for Luekemia but not responding too well to the chemotherapy. He is the one who was baptized recently and whose mum accepted the Lord a couple of months ago. Please intercede for him as the Holy Spirit leads us to strengthen their faith and claim the healing made available to all children of God by the sacrifice of Jesus on the cross.
3. for my friend's young son Johnathan who is suffering from Luekemia. I think he is now 12 years old and his condition was diagnosed last year. He will be going for Bone Marrow Transplant likely on 13Jul. They have found a donor from US whose blood type matched his. He will be admitted tomorrow to KK hospital for his pre-transplant regimen - inserting the hickman line and undergoing chemotherapy to prepare him for the transplant. Please pray for God grace and mercy upon him that he need not suffer the side effects of the chemo and that the BMT be successful without GVHD if possible. That his mum will find strength and hope as she stay with him in the hospital during his treatment. Lets pray that his parents will continue to hang on to Jesus for miraclous complete healing.
4. for David's nieces Isabella and Arabella and my niece Amelia who are unwell, having quite high fever. May our Lord send His word and heals them (Ps 107:20) and bring forth speedy recovery in Jesus name.
Thanks for being partners in prayers. May the Lord bless us with the joy of knowing He is mindfull of us and hears our cries.
God bless,

So Blessed!
God is good all the time. Jesus is so good! We are so blessed. Praise the Lord forever and ever!
We were indeed very blessed to make it for the church camp. Thanks for praying. So much to be thankful for the countless blessings we experienced. From being able to travel to KL with together with a wonderful family (Bok Eng, his lovely wife Violet and little Joseph who is Joshua's kindergarten friend) to the very anointed preaching from Pastor Dr Philip Lyn (Senior Pastor of Skyline SIB church), the warmth and care of fellow church members, the sumptious food, the birthday surprise celebration for Joshau from his aunt Chye Hong, cousins Shirley and Goa Hao , the fun Josh had with his cousins Isabella and Arabella....
Even though Josh was sick and had fever and at one point his fever even reached 40.3 degrees, the Lord so graciously heard our prayers and healed him. We did not sleep well during the 2 nights when Josh had fever and were really glad that the Lord sustained us, especially for David. Glad to also share that he was coping well despite being very tired.
We enjoyed all the 5 sessions from Pastor Dr Philip Lyn tremendously and am praying that the Holy Spirit will help us to internalize the message of having a spiritual break through, taking kingdom authority, releasing the power of prayer and fasting, discerning the spirit of the times and living triumphantly for the kingdom of God is near.
May we live worthy of His calling, giving Him all glory due to His name - the name above all other names, the name of Jesus our Lord!

16Jun06 - a significant day
We attended "The House of Prayer Conference" on 15, 16 & 17 June 2006 organised by One Thing Ministries. Gary Wiens from IHOP - Kansas City and his wife Marie shared about God's heart for the House of Prayer and the significance of raising the House of Prayer in such a time as this. We were tremendously blessed by it. Therefore, before being away for the next 4 days for the church camp, I simply must share and give praises and glory to God.
On saturday morning, the last day of the Conference, the Lord gave Marie a burden to pray for a man with cancer whom the Lord wanted to heal. Marie also shared that the Lord had long before her trip to Singapore made known to her that he would do something very significant on 16Jun06 which she wrote on her bible. Last saturday morning in Singapore was 17Jun06 and was 16Jun06 in America. It turned out that David was the one and was requested to step forward to receive healing. While God's people gathered round to pray, worship and intercede, words were released that David is healed and that he will live to see his grandchildren. What a wonderful promise! What a precious promise! I am so overwhelmed by the Lord's love for us...so grateful, so awed, so amazed that He (the King of kings and Lord of lords) knew (took notice of) our hearts' desire and is so gracious to hear and answer our prayers and to fulfill our hope. We who are so unworthy of Him, yet out of His great mercies and lovingkindness, He once again extended amazing grace to us - to David and our family and many others who sought healing that morning.
After the healing ministry, Gary and Marie taught about the importance of Matthew 5 Beatitudes as the journey to Righteousness - a wonderful insight revealed by the Holy Spirit as essential in building a house of prayer. Would like to encourage all beloved children of God to meditate on the Beatitudes and be blessed.
Marie later told David during break time that the assignment satan had to destroy David's life in the prophesy given 2 years ago was cancelled, broken. Priase the Lord!
We can certainly look forward to a life of good health and abundant blessings from Him who loves us so much that He gave His only son so that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.
Bless the name of Jesus forever and ever! Amen!

More praises!
The Lord's name is to be praised forever and ever! His mercies are new every morning and His lovingkindness never ceases.
David's blood test result yesterday was amazingly good. His Hb was 11, WBC 6.19, Platelet count 185. He is deemed fit for surgery and is scheduled for his piles operation on 21Jul. Do pray that his operation is successful, without complications and that his piles problem will be fixed once and for all. Also that he will not have prolapse piles during this period. His appetite has improved but he is still very much underweight, please pray that the Lord will restore not just his health but his weight and strength.
"Blessed is the man whose strength is in You,
Whose heart is set on pilgrimage.
As they pass throught the valley of Baca,
They make it a spring;
The rain also covers it with pools.
They go from strength to strength;
Every one of them appears before God in Zion." Psalm 84:5-7
We are joining the BBTC church camp in KL from next Monday to Thur. Really looking forward to it as we believe God has in store abundant blessings to bestow upon all during the church camp. Please pray that nothing will crop up to prevent us from going. We have signed up for the camp by faith when David was still in the hospital. By faith, we are giving thanks to God for hearing and answering prayers.
With thanksgiving,

Blood test result
Hi all,
David did a blood test yesterday and the result showed his platelets count has dropped to 47 (normal range is 140 - 440). The platelets help blood to clog when there is bleeding. Please pray that he does not suffer any cuts or sustain any injury during this time and that his count will improve soon. May the Lord protect him from all harm and danger.
Thanks & God bless,
