Treasure of Life....... Are we better than others?

A natural harvest of lives has been done again through a force named "Frank". This is not saying that the tragedy was expected and should be accepted as is, forgetting about investigating the probable causes and the culprits behind it, I just believe that at the end of the day, what happened was meant to be... and only God knows the reason why.

With that said, I hope we come to realize that our life could end just like that, without a warning, anytime, anywhere. We should remember again that this life is not ours, and therefore, while we still have it, let's make the best out of it.

Here's one picture-inspired reminder why we should be thankful always of our lives, despite all of the so-called 'trials'!

As I jumped off the building,

I saw the known loving couple in the 10th floor hitting each other...

I saw the usually tough and strong Peter in the 9th floor crying...

8th Floor.. Ah Mei just found her fiance in bed with her best friend...

7th floor...Dan is taking his daily anti-depression medicine...

6th floor... Jobless Mike is looking at the classified ads of different newspapers...

Much respected Mr Wong in the 5th floor is trying his wife's undergarments...

4th floor... Rose is fighting with her boyfriend...

The old man in the 3rd floor is looking out the window hoping someone will visit him...

2nd floor... Lily is staring at the picture of the husband she lost since 2 years ago...

Before I jumped off the building, I thought I was the unluckiest person...

Now I realized everyone has their own problems and worries...

After I had seen all these, I found out that in fact, I wasn't that bad at all...

The people I just saw is looking at me now...

I think they are thinking now that their lives are not that bad after all!

Abdominal Epilepsy?

The other day, I encountered an uncommon medical diagnosis, abdominal epilepsy. Maybe I was absent when this was taught in med school or maybe it was mentioned but it just didn't register in my memory bank. Anyway, for those colleagues who haven't heard of this as well, here's what I found out about it, so that next time you are faced with a weird abdominal pain, you will think of abdominal epilepsy as a differential. There are many medical causes of abdominal pain; abdominal epilepsy is one of the rare causes. From a medical perspective, the term epilepsy refers not to a single disease, but to a group of symptoms with numerous causes. The common factor in all forms of epilepsy is an excessive electrical excitability of the brain. The increased excitation is called a seizure and may manifest as a partial or total loss of consciousness and muscle spasms or other involuntary movements. Many conditions can produce epilepsy. For example, a genetic predisposition is...

"Ganacity"

If there's one word that I will never forget from my AGSB experience, it's "ganacity"! A word frequently mentioned by our FinMan professor. What does it mean? It's a combination of the tagalog word "gana" (appetite, zest) and the english suffix "city" which converts an adjective word into a noun. 'Ganacity' therefore refers to one's state of desire or interest in something. I am sharing this because I feel that my 'ganacity' for what I am doing now is spiralling down, and it is so difficult to reverse it back up or just to keep it at a maintained level. It is becoming a struggle on a day to day basis. I am hoping that night and day will alternate fast so that this battle will end soon.

Growths and Tumors of the Mouth

A colleague in the practice of dental medicine referred to me a 40-year old female with a large pinkish, cauliflower-like mass on her lower right buccal gingival. It apparently started 2 months prior to the consult as a small pinkish pedunculated mass, nontender, that was often irritated during teeth brushing. She wanted it removed. Without biopsy, the characteristic of the mass is more consistent with squamous papilloma. I scheduled her for excision biopsy under local anesthesia. More and more people are experiencing some ‘growths’ in their oral cavity. I think this is mainly related to the lifestyle we have adapted these years. Smoking, eating food with irritants or preservatives etc. are the usual culprits. For information, these are the more common growths and tumors that we usually see in the oral cavity. Please be guided and consult your dentists if you notice something similar in your mouth. Abscess This is a soft, pus containing swelling. Th...
