.....A Trip Down Memory Lane.....

 
 
My Princess and I made a trip down memory lane, to Malacca, that is, on Friday, 25.1.19 and Saturday, 26.1.19. We traced back the familiar routes along Jalan Tun Tan Cheng Lock, Jalan Tengkera, Limbongan, Klebang, Kesidang, Bachang, the roads in Malacca City, and of course, Jalan Air Keroh. Just for the record, my family had stayed in Malacca between 1980 till 1985 during our tour of duty with the Government service. Then, when Princess continued with her tertiary education in Malacca, we had stayed there again from 2000 till 2002. Malacca holds a lot of bitter sweet memories for me, and this time around we managed to trace our footsteps at three tourist attractions, namely, the Butterfly Park, Taman Mini Malaysia and the beach at Pantai Klebang. Perhaps, on our future trips, we'll be covering more memory-laden places. InsyaAllah.

..... November 2018 Dates To Remember....


 
November 2018 saw the occurrence of several significant events  which will be forever etched in my mind.....They were all very sad happenings, indeed!
 
To begin with, 1.11.18, reminded me of how I was nearly duped by the unscrupulous Macau Scammers, one year ago. Selisih Malaikat Empat Puluh Empat!
 
Secondly, Saturday, 10.11.18, saw the demise of my maternal cousin, Allahyarhamah Suzy Md Noor. She succumbed to CA, at the young age of 52.
 
 
 
Ten days later, on Tuesday, 20.11.18, a very good friend of the BCSGJB members, namely, Puan Kalsom Binti Kaliman, expired at HSI, JB. She  lost her seven year battle with CA. She was indeed a very lovable person and a real gem to all the support group members. You'll be terribly missed, Kalsom.
 
 



 
Another significant date was Wednesday, 21.11.18. On that day, my beloved sibling, Allahyarhamah Roseana binti Abdul Rahim, would have turned 67. She passed on eight years ago , a victim of Acute Myeloid Leukemia.
 
 
 
 
 
Sunday, 25.11.18, saw the demise of my maternal uncle, Tuan Haji Roslan Bin Marto, who was Allahyarhamah Suzy's stepfather. He was a very jovial individual, and he was also an accomplished handyman. He'll definitely be missed by all his loved ones.




May Allah SWT bless the souls of Allahyarhamah Suzy, Allahyarhamah Kalsom, Allahyarhamah Roseana and Allahyarham Uncle Roslan. Al Fatihah. Ameen.
 
 
Finally, three months have gone by since Late Adik crossed the Rainbow Bridge. (28.8.18-28.11.18). RIP Adik.

.....It's That Time Of The Year, Again!



Yeah, it's that time of the year, again! Pink October! The special month, which is especially dedicated to Patients, Survivors, Supporters and Friends of the ailment dubbed as Breast Cancer!     Well, I joined this Pink Ribbon Fraternity on Friday, 26.6.2009, a good nine years and four months ago! To this date, I've been going through life as best as I possibly can. There have been the usual fair share of ups and downs for me, but I've been determined to face up to my life squarely in its face! Thus far, life has been good to me. Syukur Alhamdulillah. Ameen Ya Rabbal Al Ameen!
