Fact is he is freed, whether this is another political gimmick or not, and many of us are happy.
Last Saturday hubs brought Vic for an extraction of her blood and consultation with her allergist doctor at Pantai Hospital. Vic has voiced to me before, "How will I know when I am healed?" Such a valid question. I want to ask that too.
Currently we see that her ezcema has stayed away for sometime now, and her skin has improved albeit not smooth and some dark scars, no occurrence of mysterious red spots on her abdomen and thighs, no crazy nose bleeds episodes during the night... so I'm hoping, praying, and wishing... the little glimmer of hope that my little girl has indeed overcome her allergies since her last attack.
As the laboratory is not open during the weekends, her serum has been extracted and stored for today's testing. Vic was braved and did not cry. When she entered the Professor's room, she sat down and asked him calmly, "Doctor, can you please check me if I am healed."
Tomorrow we will know the result. This will be her 4th allergy blood test since September 2008.
In His perfect timing
...but we serve a living God, the same yesterday and the same today and tomorrow. I dare not expect anything but hope for the best. As an assurance and emotional cushion, I tell her, "in His perfect timing." Then her question comes, "Why not now?"
I'm no preacher. And it's hard to be a mother not knowing all the answers.
Vic is still on probiotics, and the doctor has confirmed our findings that oil of oregano is effective in killing off candida. There are many articles on this, but you can read more here And he has reminded us to wash Heh Heh in boiling hot water, if not deep freeze her to kill off the dustmites.
Watch this space for her results... in the meantime, pray with us for Victoria. She is brave and patient with her condition and obedient to her diet regime. But she has consistently voiced out to me that she wants to eat normal bread with butter and jam and other food stuff that many people take for granted. I have made a mental note on all her favourite food, her wish list and promised her that I will buy all that for her - except the sweets. ; P

Praying that you will receive good news about Vic's blood test. It must be tough for all, esp Vic and she has been so brave. Looking forward to good news. In my past experience, my oldest girl has outgrown her allergies and eczema. The eczema will return from time to time esp when she's been swimming in chlorinated water, hence the swim in the ocean is always preferred.
Will keep Vic in prayer. She's asking some good questions and knowing God in the process.
Glad to also read she is doing well in school.
I'm constantly amazed at how resilient Vic is in facing the challenges of her allergies. Hugs to her.
Who do you consult in Pantai? A or Y?
@Mom's Diary, we have consulted Dr A who specializes in skin prick but it was all crap. Her allergies came back after he confirmed she was zerorised and Dr Wong has to recheck her. We are still with Dr Y.
