The condition that my husband had has been further confirmed. The official medical term for that is Pulmonary Embolism (PE) and in Chinese, it’s called 肺栓塞. I googled it on the Internet last night after I got back home with the correct spelling from a RN, it brought up hundreds of pages of information about [...]

Beds are electronically controlled with a remote, meals are served on the bed, toilette gears are provided, lunch came before breakfast was digested, so did the dinner. The nurses are kind and warm, some of them even have great sense of humour. [...]

我生病了!!头疼、肚子疼、浑身酸软无力,外加拼命打喷嚏。我早上去上了两个小时班就撑不住了,被我的同事赶回了家,命令我病不好就别来上班。我的另外一个同事今天也好象不太舒服,所以我们两个病人就一起结伴儿打道回府了(其实是我搭他的车)。 回家后吃了一大堆感冒药,我闻着就象个中药罐子。然后我就坐在后院里一边听着风声,一边织毛衣。晌午的微风吹着真是舒服极了。我们的院子正好座落在几棵大槐树下,斑驳的阳光照在院子里,又亮堂又不晒,正适合我目前养病的心情:-) 天天上班坐在电脑前面,根本没有时间在户外享受这样的时光。现在生病了,倒反而有了机会。老公给端茶送水,中午还给做饭洗碗;毛衣进展迅速,马上就要织到袖子了;院子里的植物刚施过肥,长势相当不错;更有笔记本无线上网,即使坐在院子里也可以写Blog…… 生病,对于我这样天天忙忙碌碌的人来说,其实反而是一种难求的奢侈。

My husband’s test result seems perfectly healthy even though we worried about some very small fatty cells growing on [...]
