Missing In Action - What Actually Happened?

Hello and good day my friends. 

This sunrise shot was taken on the 21st February @ 7:45am.
~~~~~
Today started with a bright and sunny morning. But now as I am typing in front of my PC at 3:35pm, it is raining outside.
~~~~~
I have been out of action for about 10 days now. I am sure many of you are wondering what really happened to me. I have shared about my stomach issue which started some time in early December last year and thought it was related to gastric or acid reflux issue. 

I was having pain on the night of 28th February and I told my hubby that I needed to see a specialist because the earlier doctors all treated me for gastric and acid reflux. A good friend recommended me a physician and I was waiting at his clinic at 9am plus. I told him about my symptoms and about the lump on the upper part of my stomach area. He immediately did an ultrasound on the area and told me that I have lumps on my liver.

He advised me to admit into the hospital immediately to get a CT Scan test done. I was then admitted to the hospital at about 12pm the same day. I will continue with my stay in hospital and the results from the CT Scan in the next blog post. I will try to keep it short but I will try not to keep you all in suspense for too long.
Whatever the results, it is not the end of the world. Life still has to go on. See, my Bauhinia Kockiana is so bright and it cheers me up when I look at them. For now, my hubby has to take over the garden.
While watering the Ixora plant outside my house, I noticed this hairy caterpillar on the plant. I don't know the ID of this caterpillar.


He brings the hungry to settle there and build their cities,
to sow their fields and plant their vineyards,
and reap their bumper crops!
How he blesses them!
They raise big families there and many cattle.
(Psalm 107:36-38, The Living Bible-TLB)

  4. Finding a good doctor is like playing Bingo :-(
    I wish you all the very, very best! Glad you finally found good help! And that you think positive, that is really important.
    I really do believe that it helps. I could´ve lost my right hands function, my Mother told me to think positive and all went well!

    Beautiful flowers and that caterpillar even tops it!!! Hugs, get well soon.

  10. Nancy you will soon be better with this new doctor who is seeing you quickly.
    Regarding the caterpillar, I tell you that it looks very pretty in the photo! Surely soon she will be transformed into a butterfly. Will she be as pretty as her?

    1. Thank you, Baili. There won't be any operation to remove the lumps. They can only treat me with chemo.

  21. Hi Nancy. Good that you went to consult specialist and get to the bottom of the problem. I also have been having stomach problems lately. Gastric for few days this week. Thought of seeing doctor too but waking up today feeling better. Just don't have much appetite and tummy isn't feeling good lately.

    Can't wait to hear from you on your next post. Don't keep up suspense. Anyway, hope it isn't anything serious. Take care. God bless you.

  24. I hope everything will turn out ok.
    I am not feeling very well myself, generally far from what I would be like usually. I went for a blood test last week and good news - for half a year, I was in danger of having to undergo dialysis but the test turned out great - no need to go for dialysis, after all, praise the Lord! Everything very positive in the test which is the best thing I have heard for a long long time.
