[Videos] Salam AidilFitri di Gurney Plaza

Salam Aidil Fitri di Gurney Plaza, see the Hari Aidil Fitri decorations in an upscale shopping mall in Penang. Wishing all Malay friends, visitors, a "Selamat Hari Aidil Fitri."

The above is a short video on the Malay-themed beautiful decorations in Gurney Plaza in anticipation of Hari Raya 2021.

See my Free collections below:- 😁❤✌✔😜

Seems that the Raya 'ang-pow' packets and paper bags are more colorful and attractive than Chinese New Year for 2021. Since, I am a collector of free stuffs, I decided to take this opportunity to visit the upscale shopping mall for some freebies during the festive season, such as this.

Happy Sunday and Good Morning! This was sent from my Instagram account with the picture uploaded from my WhatsApp friend this morning. Enjoy the greenery and lovely colors.

Below is another video taken during my short stay at another hospital earlier.

Address:
LohGuanLye Specialists Centre - Private Hospital Penang
238, Jalan Macalister, 10400 George Town, Pulau Pinang

Hours: Open 24 hours
Phone: 04-238 8888
Number of beds: 273

The Loh Guan Lye Specialists Centre is a 273-bed private hospital in the city of George Town in Penang, Malaysia. Located at Macalister Road, it was established in 1975 and has been expanded over the years. The hospital now consists of three wings - the Main Wing, a Diagnostic Wing, and a Women & Children Wing.

===============================================

I was admitted to Loh Guan Lye Hospital due to heavy bleeding for weeks and was advised by a gynae to immediately prepare to stay overnight for several procedures. After signing the consent form, these include a procedure known as EUA + Hysteroscopic, Polypectomy + Mirena IUS Insertion, + Dilation Curretage KIV Proceed.

After 1 week, the Histopathology - Diagnosis from Subang Jaya Medical Centre were the following:-

Clinical History
Cx biopsy - Thickened endometrium with increased vascularity.
Endometrial polyps TRO hyperplasia

Gross Description
A. Specimen labeled - Cervical biopsy
Received a piece of light brownish tissue measuring 0.5 cm in the greatest dimension. Submitted entirely in 1 block.

B. Specimen labeled - Endometrial polyps/tissue
Received multiple pieces of dark brownish tissue measuring 3 cm in aggregate diameter. Submitted entirely in 1 block.

Microscopic Description
A. The cervical tissue is chronically inflamed, with a mixture of macrophages and lymphocytes. The subepithelial tissue is densely infiltrated by acute and chronic inflammatory cells. There is no evidence of dysplasia or neoplasia.

B. The curretings consist of many polypoidal fragments covered on three or all sides by epithelium. Embedded in the stroma are cystically dilated endometrial glands presenting a "swiss cheese" like appearance of low power. There is no cytological atypia seen and mitoses are present in both glands and stroma.

Diagnosis
A. Cervical biopsy - Endocervicitis, no evidence of dysplasia or neoplasia.

B. Endometrial polyps/tissue - Cystic glandular hyperplasia with polyposis.

In summary, it's simple hyperplasia without atypia.

To cheer up the sombre mood, below is another "Good Morning" Instapic message.

Here's another one.

Finally, stay safe and stay happy! Selamat Hari AidilFitri to all Muslims.

[Video] Admitted to a Private Hospital

I was admitted to Gleneagles Hospital recently from 13th April 2021 till 18th April 2021 for a procedure done to save my life. Thanks to the doctors involved in the surgery.

Dear women, gals, and ladies,

If you are bleeding for 2-3 weeks continuously, please see a gynecologist immediately so as not to get anemia, headaches, etc. Some knowledge can save your life. Call up a hospital to make an appointment immediately. Don't linger and wait for too long before you FAINT, either at work or at home!

An ultrasound scan, plus D&C, biopsy with lab tests found fibroids and polyps in the uterine lining with some precancer stage 1 cells in my endometrium and uterus.

So, the solution is to have a hysterectomy or removal of the entire womb (uterus) which includes vertical or horizontal incision to the stomach below the navel button.

This procedure took 2 hours and paid for by my insurance with co-insurance paid by me at 10%.

[Videos] Blessed Easter Sunday, Lunches, Natural Wood, Good Morning, etc.

The video above shows my lunch at J.L. Gourmet with amazing folded paper art on table tops and on the walls. These are lovingly made with patience to piece each folded paper bits into a character. I had fish florentine, consisting of dory fish covering braised spinash and sprinkled with cheese powder.

Yesterday was Easter Sunday, commemorating the resurrection power of Jesus that defeated the power of Satan or the evil one on planet earth. Because Jesus is risen, we humankind can now enjoy blessings, prosperity, health, eternity as His children and victory over whatever circumstances life throws as you. Thank you, Jesus, for your sacrificial death on the cross.

[Videos] Coco Island Street Food, Sungai Pinang Food Court Paradise and Palm Sunday

This video is about the street food of Coco Island by Bali Thai along the Gurney Drive Road in Penang Island. Check out the various street food stalls ranging from 'char koay teow,' seafood and vegetables, 'sotong bakar' or baked calamari, Italian pasta, Taiwanese noodles, 'wanton noodles,' 'bak kut teh,' Japanese food, Chinese food, Western food, etc. You need to check out this eatery.

Address: 104, Persiaran Gurney 10250 Penang.
Contact: 064-226 2633
Operation Hours: 7:00am -12:00am (Open Daily)

Since today is Palm Sunday, check out my various curated pictures on Palm Sunday on my Instagram account by clicking on the '>' icon on the right.

From Wikipedia, Palm Sunday is a Christian moveable feast that falls on the Sunday before Easter. The feast commemorates Jesus' triumphal entry into Jerusalem, an event mentioned in each of the four canonical Gospels. Palm Sunday marks the first day of Holy Week, the last week of the Christian solemn season of Lent that precedes the arrival of Eastertide.

In most liturgical churches, Palm Sunday is celebrated by the blessing and distribution of palm branches (or the branches of other native trees), representing the palm branches which the crowd scattered in front of Christ as he rode into Jerusalem. The difficulty of procuring palms in unfavorable climates led to their substitution with branches of native trees, including box, olive, willow, and yew. The Sunday was often named after these substitute trees, as in Yew Sunday, or by the general term Branch Sunday.

Many churches of mainstream Christian denominations, including the Orthodox, Catholic, Lutheran, Methodist, Anglican, Moravian and Reformed traditions, distribute palm branches to their congregations during their Palm Sunday liturgies. Christians take these palms, which are often blessed by clergy, to their homes where they hang them alongside Christian art (especially crosses and crucifixes) or keep them in their Bibles or devotionals.

If you click on the '>' button on the right side, you will see our dear brother Kelvin's niche in the 3rd photo. Though I have never met up with him, despite him suggesting that we meet up on Atomy during MCO, he is like a big brother to me. He was a very successful banker, worked in Alliance bank for 20 years or so in the housing loan department, and had the power to approve bank loans to borrowers to buy houses. He would have been 53 years of age this March 2021, had he not suffered a massive cardiac arrest at home. Guess being single and missing his dearly departed mum since September last year, plus pay cut, it was just too much to handle in this path of life filled with stress, pandemic, etc.

Anyway, brother Kelvin was my only Atomy member who could purchase from the eCommerce website on his own, amongst my 30 sleeping Atomy members. Kelvin Chan is now happily holding hands with his mum in heaven looking down at us mortals.

The video above was done and compiled by yours truly. This video is on Sungai Penang Food Court Paradise in Penang. Various hawker stalls, fresh fish, fish soup rice vermicelli, etc. with funky and soothing music. 😎😍😁 Check out the "Good Morning" pictures and Sunday Blessings where you can click on the ">" icon to swipe left for more beautiful banners.
