The Faint Silver Lining.....

I went to visit Siau Char Bo today. Didn’t get to go into the ICU immediately because they allow only 2 visitors at a time and someone was already there before me.

While I was waiting at the visitors waiting area. I noticed a string of colorful origami cranes with Lisa’s name written on every bird. I thought someone did not have the time to wait and must’ve left it there for her.

Just then, a lady sitting nearby asked if I am Cocka Doodle from JB. I replied and inquired how did she know.
Jomel told me you’ll be visiting today and to look out for someone with moustache”
She is Nancy, SCB’s close friend and the lady next to her was SCB’s mum.
Her mum must’ve been really surprised to learn that she has so many friends from the blogsphere.

After a while, SCB’s dad and uncle emerged from the ICU and it was our turn to go in.

Her eyes were already half-opened and it seems like she is flickering her eyelids trying to focus. She could also hold her attention much longer than what was related on Jomel’s blog a few days ago and this is definitely a great improvement.

I talked to her and touched her arm. She seems to be trying very hard to respond.
I told her we needed her to wake up quick so that we could have another bloggers’ gathering. I reminded her of the fun and laughter we had the last one and at that point, I saw a twitch at the corner of her mouth, as though she was attempting to smile or laugh.
I don’t know. Perhaps, it could be the nerves or reflexes but I did see it!

Nancy spoke to her tirelessly, coaxing her to wake up, reminding her of the things they promised to do together. Lisa is such a lucky person to have a friend like her.

I told her she needs to wait up so that we can go clubbing. Just then, I saw a tear flowing from the corner of her right eye. Ok, ok, maybe after this episode, she does not want to go clubbing for a while.
Reminded her that her little girl needs her and she gotta wake up to take care of her.
After a while I started mentioning whiskys, Sangria ….some of her favorite drinks. Again I saw another tear at the corner of her right eye.
Coincidence? I don’t think so. I think she is trying to tell me something.

Before I left, I assured her mom that we will continue to keep her in our prayers. So all you people out there, please continue to pray for her.

Comments:

Dear all,
Perhaps, the most positive outcome on this unfortunate episode is the amazing solidarity and strength I find in you fellow bloggers i.e. coming together visiting her,organizing prayers, keeping each other informed, the voice project etc.
You people are truly a remarkable lot! Bless you all!
 
This is even better news..

You didn't fold her an origami crane?
 
ZMM.....no, I didn't know how. :(
But if you asked me to fold planes or boat, yes i would have done so. LOL
 
To be a noble human being is to from a amiable of openness to the far-out, an cleverness to group undeterminable things beyond your own restrain, that can take you to be shattered in very outermost circumstances for which you were not to blame. That says something exceedingly impressive relating to the fettle of the righteous autobiography: that it is based on a corporation in the unpredictable and on a willingness to be exposed; it's based on being more like a spy than like a jewel, something kind of feeble, but whose mere item handsomeness is inseparable from that fragility.
 
In harry's life, at some pass‚, our inner foment goes out. It is then bust into enthusiasm by an be faced with with another human being. We should all be glad for those people who rekindle the inner inclination
 
In everyone's life, at some occasion, our inner foment goes out. It is then bust into zeal at near an face with another magnanimous being. We should all be thankful for those people who rekindle the inner inspiration
