		<title>Floor cleaner that solved our problem</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The ground floor of my house is paved with marble tiles. It used to feel dirty again as soon as it was mopped. Our family had always been on a low income so Mom resorted to buying cleaning detergents off the shelf believing that they cost less. Despite mopping the floor everyday, it still felt [...]]]></description>

		<title>It&#8217;s a blessing when we can work</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I wrote what I did yesterday to share with my friends and supporters why I’ve been trying to get the best possible healthcare. Awhile back, I wrote that the cost of every surgery is the least of my concern. As long as I am physically capable, the money can be earned. Although we have to [...]]]></description>

		<title>I finally know why</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We still have a cabinet with some of Aunt Ivy’s belongings at home. Aunt Ivy was my dad’s younger sister. One day last year, I searched through the cabinet and found a medical appointments card with Dr. Ng Wai Keong’s name. I recognized his name. Dr. Ng is a Neurosurgeon who sees patients at Sunway [...]]]></description>

		<title>A lesson from the past teaching me the importance of saving my hand</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Waiting for friends to arrive in the photography studio yesterday, I walked around like how a ballerina should. Imagining my ballet school principal Ms. Lee Lee Lan sitting at the front, I smiled at her before pushing one foot forward with pointed toes. 
This was a basic exercise that has become a challenge to me. [...]]]></description>

		<title>Male friends and aging</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday, I had dinner with my buddy Kenrick who I’ve not seen since Rajan’s funeral on 1st January. Kenrick was kind to travel all the way from his house in Kota Kemuning just to have dinner. He graduated with a bachelor’s degree in communications recently and now looking for a job. Throughout dinner, I thought [...]]]></description>

		<title>My dad&#8217;s comfort</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My friend Kai Boon’s father had a stroke last week and was admitted to hospital. Kai Boon said that they put a shunt through his father’s skull to drain blood from the brain. He asked us to pray for his father. The blood needed to keep flowing out for him to live. Kai Boon left [...]]]></description>

		<title>Failed marriages and displaced resentments</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Mom has been talking about going to live at my late-grandma’s house in the next town for some time. But I did not take her seriously because the last time we moved there, she drove back to this house almost everyday just to feed the animals. Now that I realize her unkempt habits are symptoms [...]]]></description>

		<title>My mom&#8217;s solace</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday, someone e-mailed me offering his opinion as to where Mom’s cats and dogs are concerned. He understands that it must be hard for Mom to watch me undergo so many surgeries. She probably finds comfort in keeping these animals indoors.
This led me to think along those lines. I would guess that my healthcare is [...]]]></description>
