Hi Frank and Lora,
Glad to hear from you again. Thanks for your prayers! It is
glad to know that someone on the other side of the earth is praying for
you. I am also glad to hear that you have a eventful Christmas this
year.
Due to the presentation about paediatrics emergencies that I
was assigned to do on December 26, I can't fully concentrate for this
Christmas. However I was able to attend a Christmas choir singings on
December 21, and I managed to get my offday on Christmas, so that I can
attend the Christmas service. The atmosphere was different, but the
centre of the message is still the same, that is Christ Jesus.
It is really saddening to know about the bombing cases in Volgograd. Let us continue to pray for their safety.
Now I am able to adapt the flow of my work in the hospital better, but many things still need to catch up and learn. The week before Christmas I was assigned to paediatric
oncology together with another friend. I had many new exposures and
learnt new things during that one week from my friend, who is a senior
house officer.
I have to pass 2 assessments to finish my posting in
general paediatric. Today I have approached my consultant and passed my
first assessment. It was not easy, I can't sleep well the night before,
but thank God for His strength and His mercy. Indeed, "Great is Thy
faithfulness, morning by morning new mercy I see".
But this is still the beginning. Another assessment will be
with a paediatric dernatologist. I also need to pass Neonatal
Resuscitation Programme (NRP) at the end of January before going to
neonatal unit.
Yon is working at orthopaedic department now and I heard from him that the workload is not heavy in that department.
Janice is working at obstetric and gynaecology department.
I heard from her that her mother kept her bible away before she went to
Miri (the city she is working now) so that she can't read it. However
she is now joining a fellowship in the hospital, and during Christmas
she was able to attend a Christmas service and received a new bible as a
present. "On the mountain of the LORD it will be provided." (Genesis
22:14).
May both of you continue to guide both of you and provide opportunity for you to serve as we enter into 2014.
