Empire State Building

I miss it the first time, but this time I make-it.

After all of us sleep for about 3-4 hours in the morning, we have simple breakfast. We decided to take a trip to New York Mahattan city, we want to visit the Empire State Building. Anna feeling good too, so 6 of us went in but not Andrew, he waiting for us nearby. The entries fee is USD 19 / head, we line up a little bit before taking the elevator to go up 80 floor, we are very worry about Anna, but she seem good, it take 55 second to reach 80 floor, afterthat we have to take another floor to 88 floor, the observation floor. There are hundred of visitors there taking photos and viewing New York city. The sunshine on me and wind blowing, it make us all feel wonderful, manage to took a few pictures. (Will post). Due to we are worry about Anna's condition, we take a fast round the floor and go down.

We are at the 5th Ave waiting for Andrew, have all the sibling, this is their 1st view of New York Mahattan.

Hope...

Last saturday is the worst day for all of us here, Anna's condition was bad, she feel hopeless and very tired, not a minutes felling good, keep on asking why brother and sister is not here yet, again she said she dont want to wait, she want to given up, it make everyone so down and worry about her. she refuse to admit to ER, when i ask her to. The whole day she laid down on bed, can't sleep. I notice good rest and good sleep is very important for her (in fact is important for everyone). I try massage her foot to give her comfort and make juice for her, she eat a bit. At last she manage to sleep at 5pm.

I think she is too tired at Friday night (too excited at the pub, drinking & eating with Kath, Raymond, Andrew and myself).

Her childhood friend, Janet Voon Ching came from Canada in the morning, Anna was so happy, but due to her bad condition, Janet was so worry, we (Janet, Anna ans i ) chatch up a lot on our good old days in Kluang, school time, family time, going out with BF time, college time in K L, those really good old days that Ah Jie and Ah Dee will not understand.

Thanks GOD, after a good night sleep, Anna feel much better and full energy, Raymond and Kath caome in by 7am, with all the energy we have and joyfull good sunday morning, we decided to take a ride to (hehehe) Foxwood, the nearest casino with 2 hours drive. So, 5 of us, after wash-up ahead to Foxwood.

We have American Breakfast in the casino restaurant, very delicious, i missed the American Breakfast so much that i eat a little bit more. Anna also have buffet with us, she feeling very happy and peace, Raymond are right, she need to go out more to forget her illness.

We ahead to casino right after the Breakfast, not so pack bebause still early. Later on more and more came-in.

Andrew won big in MGM Grand at the slot machine, we so happy for him. MGM Grand started business may 08, modern and beautiful casino and hotel. I am so tired, managed to nap for 15 minutes, hehhehe.

We have dinner at the same restaurant, i ordered luigini, very delicious.

We start our journey back to White Plains at 8pm, we are all very happy, we chit chat, laught and esp. Anna, she is so happy, we will going to miss this good .........time........

White Plains City Center

After resting 1/2 day at home, Andrew have to attend a farewell party in New York Hospital, he bring us along and "park" us near to a big field near the hall where the party held. I was here the last time when i came in 2000, it is covered with snow, cool and all white. This time this place is so hot, all green and you know what I saw "Fire Fly" for the 1st time in my life, I ask Anna what was that when i saw little light here and there, Anna told me it is Fire Fly, I m so excited, later when sky turn darker, i can see more light, so beautiful... Tq New York Hospotal show me that lights in the small jungle (forgot to bring camera), hopefully will go again....

Andrew came to pick us after he said Hey to the host, we went to Whilte Plains City Center. A lot of people there to enjoy the cool air because this afternoon is a hot hot hot day (90F), there r 3 water fountain by the main road, chairs r anyway for people to sit, relax and chit chat, opposite the fountain is the Rit-Carton Residencial 30 floors skybuilding, each studion unit is cost USD600K (hehehe), very highclass "house". Children playing water from the fountain happily, adult drinking Starbuck coffee chitchating and young lover kissing. We sat there for 2 hours, then Kath and Ray came join us. Later, we decided to go for beer and eat something, so we ahead to The James & Joyce at Mamaroneck Road, we have beer except Anna, she have water and all of us have figures foods. We have good chat about American "big" girls, Chinese old songs, we manage to sing a few of them...Anna is very happy and she dont feel sleepy, I think this is the happier night for her during last 2 weeks.
Afterthat we went home, Anna check her blood suger reading, and surprisingly it is in good level, thank God...

maybe we can have another drinking session when our sibling came from Malaysia... Ah Kwan will love it too.

New York 's "Dr. Bek"

I usually go to dr.Bek in Kuala Lumpur for accupatune, she is very good and we are good friend now as we can talk and we understand each other, she is very caring, soft spoken and her skills is good, you won't feel pain when needle is use... hehe

This morning after light breakfast, Anna, Andrew and I, we ahead to White Plains China Town for accupatune, the chinese dr.is Dr. Au, she is from China mainland, a US citizen staying in US for 7 years, she worked her way up to be a licence accupatune dr, from not able to read and wrie or even speaking English to became a dr in USA. She came to US is get a better education for her only son, now her son is 24 year old, a US citizen study in local university, bright future....

Dr. Au is also a gentle, kind and friendly lady, she welcome us with a big smile, after Anna introduce me to her,we start a little chat about my journey to US , she said i did the right thing by coming to US to be with Anna , when she needed me the most, she is having the same emotional problem with us, because her mother is very ill too, she plan to go to China this August to see her mother for the last time.......

She accupatune skill is as good as Dr Bek, she massage Anna & Andrew's feet and hand. For me, only accpatune on my head, because i complaints that i always have headache, i almost sleep during the 30 minutes treatment...

After the 30 minutes massage Anna feet is better, I learn a bit of the massage skill from her, i will massage for Anna at home. I ask Anna to come to her for treatment to improve blood circulation. Our next appointment is next friday....

After that, Andrew buy Sushi and we eat at home, and rest for the day....
