Healthy living

Just now i went to Pusat Perubatan Universiti Melaya (PPUM) to visit my uncle. He got some complication regarding his kidney and he got diabetis. very serious diabetis. My dad asked the doctor there and the doctor there said that there are 2 options:

1) Kidney transplant - u know about this right? nothing much to say

2) Continuous dialisis - have to go 3 times a week, and each time will take about 4 hours. Include the time travelling, that could be 5 - 6 hours, depending on the traffic flow. it's almost half of the waking hour and could you imagine the psychological experience someone like him has to go through? i am not blaming the doctor la of course.. it's just a very sad situation, not just for him, but for every other person as well. In the pursuit of maintaining someone's life, i guess doctors pretty much ignored the psychological aspect.

As such, I am inclined to write here how to live healthily... :)

  • Don't eat too much fat, salt and sugar. If u ask me, i would say enemy number one is fast food meal. Try to eat less of those la..
  • Drink lots of water
  • Get enough rest
  • Exercise regularly
  • Don't look too highly on money - use money and love people, not love money and use people. If you are too stubborn on money matters, it will eat u up. Of course, i don't mean u simply spend la.
Take good care of your health my friend. What taste good now might not be what's best for you.

God Bless~

hmm...regarding the health problem faced by ur uncle, my father experienced it too. It is very important to take good care of the food consume, like avoid high potassium food, can't drink too much water, salt, and a lot more. Take good care of ur uncle ya as i do not have the opportunity to take care of my father now. Hope that you guys take this opportunity seriously.
