Forgetful us
“My mind is like the navy; they come and go” – Faye Riley. Batteries Not Included movie, 1987.
My mind is too. So is my husband’s. You see, my husband and I have been searching high and low for his car’s grant; in fact we’ve been looking since December last year! The last time he renewed the road tax and car insurance, he forgot to put it back in the file. This is why!! Luckily we have 2nd car. I always tell him to put things back to its places but you know husbands, we can’t tell them what to do; they won’t listen. He remembered putting it in one of the books on the bookshelf, well, I searched, it wasn’t there. Then he remembered putting it in the car’s drawer, I searched again, wasn’t there either. Until my husband remembers exactly where he put it, poor car has to wait patiently for us to bring him back on the road again.
Anyway, Happy 7th Wedding Anniversary, my husband! I forgot to make a post yesterday…so we’re equal, hun?
Thank you all for the wedding anniversary wishes and special thanks to ANNY for putting up a very special post for us!
p/s i’ll be away from today evening until 14th April February! See ya!

Cerebral Palsy
I just read an article about Colin Farrel’s son, James, who suffers from Angelman syndrome, a form of cerebral palsy and was touched by his remarks: “There is no heartbreak about it, it’s not a sad story. I’m incredibly blessed to have him in my life. He has enriched my life and I wouldn’t have it any other way.”
Love conquers all, I have to agree with that.
I am not so sure what is cerebral palsy and found so many information about it. These are facts that I want to share with you:
Cerebral palsy (CP) is a term that refers to a group of chronic disorders that affect a person’s motor skills, muscle tone and muscle movement. Cerebral refers to the cerebrum, which is the affected area of the brain and palsy refers to disorder of movement. There are three types of CP: Spastic, Athetoid and Ataxic. In most cases, the causes of cerebral palsy include:
– premature birth
– infection or illness in the mother, e.g: rubella, HIV etx
– Intrauterine exposure to drugs or alcohol
– Rh incompatibility between the mother and child
– Jaundice
– A fall, knock, or car accident after birth
– Asphyxia after birth, usually because of choking, near-drowning
or exposure to poisonous materials
– Meningitis or encephalitis after birthThere is no cure for CP, however with ongoing treatment the disabilities can be reduced.
Locally, there’s an organisation that can help parents with special children called Spastic Children’s Association of Selangor & Federal Territory (SCASFT). SCASFT provides numerous services, facilities and activities that are used to care and treat these special children. They are in need of volunteers to assist in spastic childrens development and if you are in the Selangor and KL area do check them out.
