A health freak mom's thoughts on health and all things healthy
Recently, a man was seriously injured when a robber tried to pull a ring off his finger and tried to remove his Mens Diamond Watch from his wrist. The slash of the parang was so hard on his stomach that his guts spilled out! And the victim managed to scuttle home to seek help before…
When my girls were toddlers, one of the many fears that plagued me was the TV. Back then, our TVs were the bulky type with a heavy body and a bulging screen. The TV in our bedroom had no tv mount stand but was only placed on top of our 4-tier chest of wooden drawers….
Years ago, I met a real cocky and snobbish real estate agent when we were looking for a unit at our condominium to purchase. I remember clearly one Sunday morning I made a call to him at about 10ish am. When he finally answered the call, he chided me for calling him so early in…

I have been coughing my lungs and ribs out for the past 5 days. It’s so bad that my ribs, stomach and lower armpit areas hurt a lot whenever I cough now. I hardly ever have cough and flu but the lack of sleep for the past 2 weeks has taken a toll on my…
I started to have swollen varicose veins on my legs when I was pregnant with Sherilyn. The swell on the varicose veins subsided after delivery of the baby but they were still quite obvious as I have very fair skin. When I was pregnant with Cass, my 3rd daughter, the varicose veins were swollen again…
The girls received a bag load of goodies from their aunt from Hong Kong recently. Some of the gifts include 2 boxes of Star Wars Lego blocks, which cost a bomb over here. The 2 boxes of Star Wars Lego will keep the 3 girls occupied during the school holidays, which will start in 2…
