Went for the pre-enlistment medical checkup today over at CMPB. And I must say that I was pleasantly surprised that most of the people there were not rude and impatient, considering most of us were walking around like zombies not knowing what exactly to do or where to go. The aplitude test was especially frustrating, having to stare at the computer screen for 2 solid hours trying to solve arithmetic, physics, puzzles etc. Anyway, with me being underweight, I got a PES B. But the entire experience was that bit more pleasant.
Came back to some bad news. Because my mum's medical problem I mentioned some time back in March had a recurrence. She had wanted to take some time to do strengthening exercises, but with the pain coming back. She is going to seek consultation tomorrow. And we are all extremely worried for her. She too, is understandably worried. She will probably have to go through a surgery, which isn't the most comfortable thing to go through. And she might have to be away from the family for 2 weeks should she go for it. I am just praying that she will be fine. My mother has always been my source of emotional and mental support. A pillar of strength to my family. I hope that she will be able to find the same kind of strength and hope in Jesus.
Reminiscence the past, cherish the present, look forward to the future with hope.
