Fighting with the Sickness - Shirley's 305th Friendly Greeting from Shenzhen & Beijing, May 8,2011

Hi,Dear Friends

Listen to Shirley 's Letter to You May 8, 2011

How are you?

This week, I have been fighting with the sickness. Went to see my doctors, made check of CT, MRI(Magnetic Resonance Imaging) and took medicine. Then, I am going back to Dr. Liu Yu with the result of the medicinal checks and to decide how to overcome the diseases.

The good news is that I am feeling better after I cam back to Shenzhen.

-- I can walk more than 1000 meters and need not touch anything already.

-- I can sit for 2 or 3 hours once again.

-- I can look after my own life and I have cooked some food for my son few times.

I am confident with myself and my doctors. I am sure that I will be able to go back to the campus in the near future.

For avoiding bringing too many troubles to my friends and colleagues, I did not inform anyone before I came to Shenzhen, however, some of my friends and colleagues knew the news, then:

-- Mrs. Yu Yanjie who is one of my colleagues came to see me and invited my son and me to have a dinner.

-- Dr. Zhang Qiujuan who is the executive vice president of the biggest Women and Children Hospital of Shenzhen and her husband came to see me and invited us to have a dinner.

-- Dr. Li Yibing who is the president of a hospital of the Futian District of Zhenzhen wrote to me and would like to offer help.

-- Dr. Liu Rong who is the director of the Pat-CT department of the Shenzhen Armed Police Force Hospital wrote to me and would like to come to see me.

-- Prof. Tao Hui, who is my art tutor for 8 years came to see me and invited me to be his assistant or work partner in the art field in Guangzhou at any time I am convenient.

Meanwhile, in Beijing, my tutors, classmates and monitors called me or wrote to me often, sent me so much attention, encouragement and supports. At the same time, I have also received many good letters from a lot of sincere friends from more than 10 countries.

What I am quite touched is that my son who has been in Australia for 9 years, just got his master degree, put down all of his things in Australia and in Shanghai, came to Shenzhen to accompany me and look after my life and health.

Many times, when I look at him who has grown up as a high and adult man, I can not help thinking of the funny things in his childhood, especially, I often think of how he carried a shoe for me first time, when he was just 2 or 3 years old. What a happy thing to see my own and only child have grown up and be able to look after his mother now. To be honest, many times, when I was helping the others¡¯ children, I often thought of my own son and I wished to help him at the same time.

Many times, when I listen to his " Theory and Opinion " , such as I must look after myself better, to be responsible to my own health, is just to be responsible to him; to wait for him for few years, after his emigration ok, he will " bring " me to Australia, to enjoy a higher quality life ... I do feel so much comfort and happiness in my heart. Even though I am not certainly going to the road as he has designed for me, I am going to following his " Teaching ", to take better care of myself. :-)

With so much appreciation in my heart, I have been trying to read, to observe the nature things (plants, birds, trees and landscaps), to paint as soon as I am feeling better. Slowly but keeping continuously, I have completed a new painting and I have also made the recording for the language job that I had started but I could not completed two weeks ago.

I am going to do my best to fight with the diseases and to continue to work on my combined art dream of painting, language, music and management, to learn something new, to help the others and to improve myself every day.

How about you? Are you in the good health and delight emotion now? I do hope that you are.

Take care and thanks, have a good day.
