今天之小感动（29 May 16）

虽然已经数不清来回 KL 多少次了，不过有全家在我上巴士前的相聚，依然给我留下淡淡的悸动。

或许，看多了病人的生死无常，更提醒我珍惜现在拥有的相聚。:-)

Touching Moment (28 May 16)

"Any one of you feel that transplant is good and beneficial, please raise up your hand."

Most of the people in the hall raised up their hand.

" Ok, any one of you in this hall willing to become the donor for transplant?" Unfortunately, only a few showed up their hands.

"Well, this is an issue. Most of us believe transplant is beneficial, yet only few of us willing to put it into action."

Indeed, I noticed this phenomena long time ago. Many people know some action is good, yet little willing to put it into action.

Really appreciate those who willing to face their fear and pledge for those who in needs. And I hope that more and more people able to overcome their fear and do something right. And I believe we can see a better future. :-)

Touching Moment (27 May 16)

Even though not a expected plan, I appreciate the journey joining 19 th Annual Scientific Meeting of Malaysia Science of Transplantation.

Particularly like the theme: Honouring the past, and shaping the future.

Transplant program has gone a long way, facing lots of challenges and hurdles, yet we shall honour and learn from the past, to embrace the new ideas and concepts for future practices.

Hopefully Malaysia society can be more supportive of this program to help the patients in needs..

Touching Moment (26 May 16)

While I am having a conversation with a IJN driver, I feel grateful to have them as part of the team especially when they are in needs to send the medical staffs for transplants.

No doubts medical staffs are the first line to help the patients, but every staffs who provide helps behind the screen shall be appreciated too. ;-)

Touching Moment (24 May 16)

"Counselor alone" today as my colleagues are all in workshops are not a joke, especially I am still in recovery stage from illness. 

Thanks God for granting me energy to support patients and families in needs today, especially those End of Life case and DIL case. 

Seriously need to recover fast to pick up my research mode ah~~

Touching Moment (23 May 16)

After getting patient's information, I rush to see another family. While I am having conversation with the family, suddenly a nurse ran to me.

" Mr Keith, your phone."

I accidentally put my phone at nurse counter. @@ appreciate the kind soul to bring back my phone to me. :-D

PS: Well, still in recovery stage, still blur. @@

虽然他因为某些事故心有芥蒂，无法风轻云淡，不过相较起来，他比多年前提得起，放得下。

或许，人总是要随着时间，面对着时间，才能一步一步成长，一步步面对过往的伤痛，再成为那可以让自己自豪的自己。 =)

Touching Moment (20 May 16)

This is not his part of jobs, but after my supervisor handed him my proposal to pass to me for amendment, he is willing to sacrifice his time traveling from his organization to IJN, just to pass me my proposal.

Appreciate his efforts and kind thoughts. =)

Touching Moment (18 May 16)

While I back to office, my colleague has made several phone call to government welfare department.

Out of curiosity, I asked her what makes her made the phone call. She told that she has a client in ward in being abundance by family members. Although partly it might be because of his attitude issue, she just want to try her luck to see whether welfare department can provide any helps to him.

Glad to have her as a colleague, as she always think to do more for others. =)

Touching Moment (17 May 16)

Never thought that one day I will work with certain department as their field is unrelated to mine, yet it is interesting and fruitful to work together with them. As I can see different perspective and their ways of life while working there. 

This is also part of the interesting part in counseling. While accompanying the patients and families members go through the challenges of their life, I also get a glimpse of their perspective and ways of life. Loving my job. =) 

Touching Moment (16 May 16)

Falling sick no doubt is uncomfortable. However, having someone beside while sick can ease the discomfort, as you know someone is there for you. =)

Touching Moment (15 May 16)

Although planning a oversea family trip really need to do a lot of homework to fulfill the needs of everyone, it's kind of fun that all of us able to visualize the moment, and looking forward to it.

Hopefully it can be a yearly event for our family to spend time together. :-D

Touching Moment (13 May 16)

Counting number of family members in the counseling room, in total there were more than 24 of them, waiting for doctor to break the news.

It is not easy to accept the fact that the patient is dying, even though all parties have tried their best for her. However, at least while the patient passed away, all the family and relatives are there to support each other.

Hope these supports could further help the family to move on..

Touching Moment (11 May 16)

Well, it's tiring to attend an audit-like meeting. However, feel grateful to have my department at my back to support me while I am out of idea.

Glad to feel the teamwork. :-)

Touching Moment (5 May 16)

"Recently hospital need to do a lot of changes. Luckily we still have the culture of helping each others to back us up."

Agree with the statement of my colleagues. No doubt everyone will face some challenges and changes in work. It will be great if everyone stop pointing finger but helping each others to go through the challenges.

Hopefully we can have a greater and more positive culture, and I know it always start from ourselves. =)

Touching Moment (4 May 16)

Even though they knew that the baby is going to born with severe congenital heart defects, they still decided to give him a chance, let him fight for his own life.

Not an easy decision though, hopefully all the best for this family.

Touching Moment (3 May 16)

Being the family of this patient for a couple of weeks. Initially thought that the patient might able to recover from OT, unfortunately, his cardiac arrest today broke our hope.

Accompanying the family for a couple of hours, I know how hard is it for them to turn their thought from hoping the miracle to finally decide for DNR (Do not resuscitate).

The decision they made, they made it based on love. They don't want the patient to suffer anymore, even though how painful for them to let him go.

Have done my best, and Hope that the family able to move on afterward.
