One of the side effects of Glivec (Imatinib) is losing weight. So, up to now, he has lost 4KG!
Actually, he has been quite skinny all his life. But losing another 4KG is quite a lot.He is now wearing long hair... just like me when I was his age! Like father like son!
On Wednesday (3 June 2009) after class, he complained of body ache all over, his right upper leg joint hurt a lot. I run out of idea what to do for his pain other than pray for him. After that, I fill up a bottle of hot water for him to "roll" on his leg and also apply analgestic & anti-inflammatory Ketotop plaster.
It was a relief to find him getting better.
On Thursday (4 June 2009), he didn't attend class as he insisted that there was only one tutorial class which he preferred to stay at home to rest!
On Friday (5 June 2009) morning, he was full of inspiration and energy and he went to class. In the evening, he looked forward for his steamboat dinner appointment with Yee. He was very disappointed as he missed the car to fetch him to the estate which is 50km from town. The waiting of the doc had been longer than expected.
So we decided to drive him to the estate. In the evening, he was very very happy and enjoyed himself. He stayed at the estate overnight.

Losing 4kg is quite lot. He has nice long hair like the oldies. As long as he doesn't keep his hair like those six Taiwan young actors in movies call "Brown Sugar Macchiato 10". Haha. He still looks handsome as what he is.
