「你估， 1948年，一張從香港飛往澳洲悉尼的國泰航空機票，要多少錢？」

//自從在太古香港歷史檔案中心，看見那張手寫了搭客姓名、出發及前往地點、出發日期、航班號碼、價錢、連Baggage Check的「古董機票」，我便有一種發現冷知識新大陸的亢奮。

記得Agony Uncle 鄧永鏘先生（Sir David Tang）寫過，在老好時代，泛美航空（Pan Am）的廣告令他很"amused"，因為廣告中的男女都穿着端莊得體，男的，西裝領帶，女的，斯文衫裙，就是小孩，也一身星期天的最佳裝束。

因為搭飛機太昂貴。

今時今日，一張來回機票已不算天價上流消費，但來回法國機票連住宿，再送閣下到知名酒莊當學徒，仍是一件非常吸引的事。

說的是"Bordeaux Internship Programme 2020"，送10-15名香港學生到法國波爾多接受葡萄酒教育及訓練的課程。這些機會..........到葡萄酒國留3至4星期，一個星期理論，2至3星期實習，在著名的波爾多酒莊實地工作和收割，都是聞名遐邇的大莊。去年的學生們便到過Château Angélus、Château Haut-Bailly、Château Latour及Château Montrose等等//

但遇上瘟疫..........

還有人問，1948年從香港飛往悉尼的國泰航空機票，是什麼class的？你說呢？

#1948年的機票幾錢 #內有答案
#咁今時今日免費機票食宿留學都係正
#去波爾多喎
#AltayaWines
#去名莊實地上課

從家人客人惹爭議的鰻魚飯
到今天臉友轉貼癌末小童的影像記事
百感交集的現在 心情莫名低落
中午用餐時間點開記事文章後
盈眶的眼淚沒停過

上班空檔想起一陣鼻酸
只想快點下班直奔回家
抱抱我的寶貝

因為看到別人痛徹心扉的失去
才知道自己理所當然擁有的一切 何等珍貴
活在同一個時空下 有緣做親人的每分秒
好好珍惜都來不及了
誰還計較是家人還是客人

沒人天生就是好父母
陪著孩子成長的一路上都是修行
把教養方式放到網路上卻被公審
應該也是對方始料未及的

相信有智慧的大家有辨別是非的能力
我們能做的不是傳播錯誤示範的影片
而是想想自己是不是也在無意中傷害過孩子

然後給孩子一個緊緊的擁抱
告訴他 你真的好愛他

Two months. Two months since I've held you in my arms, heard how much you loved me, kissed those sweetie "pie" lips. Two months since we've snuggled. Two months of pure absolute Hell.

I've wanted for a long time to write a little about Nolan's last days. His last few days shined with how amazing my son is. How beautiful he is. How he was made of nothing but pure love. This may be long, but bear with me, it's agony unlike any other.

When I brought Nolan to the hospital for the last time, I knew there was something else wrong other than just a lingering case of C-DIFF. I just knew, and strange enough, I think he did too. He hadn't eaten or drank anything in days and was continually vomiting.

On February 1st we were sat down with his ENTIRE team. When his Oncologist spoke, I saw the pure pain in her eyes. She had always been honest with us and fought along side of us the whole time, but his updated CT scan showed large tumors that grew compressing his bronchial tubes and heart within four weeks of his open chest surgery. The Mestatic Alveolar Rhabdomyosarcoma was spreading like wild fire. She explained at this time she didn't feel his Cancer was treatable as it had become resistant to all treatment options we had tried and the plan would be to keep him comfortable as he was deteriorating rapidly.

After a while, I composed myself and went into Nolan's room. He was sitting in "Mommy's Red Chair" watching YouTube on his Tablet. I sat down with him and put my head up against his and had the following conversation:

Me: Poot, it hurts to breathe doesn't it?
Nolan: Weeeelll.... yeah.
Me: You're in a lot of pain aren't you baby?
Nolan: (looking down) Yeah.
Me: Poot, this Cancer stuff sucks. You don't have to fight anymore.
Nolan: (Pure Happiness) I DONT??!! But I will for you Mommy!!
Me: No Poot!! Is that what you have been doing?? Fighting for Mommy??
Nolan: Well DUH!!
Me: Nolan Ray, what is Mommy's job?
Nolan: To keep me SAFE! (With a big grin)
Me: Honey ... I can't do that anymore here. The only way I can keep you safe is in Heaven. (My heart shattering)
Nolan: Sooooo I'll just go to Heaven and play until you get there! You'll come right?
Me: Absolutely!! You can't get rid of Mommy that easy!!
Nolan: Thank you Mommy!!! I'll go play with Hunter and Brylee and Henry!!

The next day he was resting, as he slept most of the days after. We had Hospice on board, all his IV medications, even his DNR signed. (I cannot explain to you what signing an Emergency Responder "Do Not Resuscitate" order for your angelic son feels like. ) When he woke up we had the van packed and I had his shoes in my hand to take him home for the evening. We just wanted ONE more night together. But as he woke, he gently put his hand on mine and said "Mommy, it's ok. Let's just stay here ok?" My 4 year old Hero was trying to make sure things were easy for me....

So in between sleeping for the next 36 hours, we played, watched YouTube, shot Nerf Gun after Nerf Gun and smiled as many times as we could. An hour or so before he passed he even filled out a "Will"! We laid in bed together and he sketched out how he wanted his funeral, picked his pall bearers, what he wanted people to wear, wrote down what he was leaving each of us, and even wrote down what he wanted to be remembered as... which of course was a Policeman 👮🏻

About 9:00pm we were watching YouTube in bed (Peppa Pig actually) and I asked Nolan if I could get in the shower, as I was not allowed to leave him and Mommy had to be touching him at all times. He said "Ummmm ok Mommy. Have Uncle Chris come sit with me and I'll turn this way so I can see you". I stood at the bathroom door, turned to him and said "Keep looking right here Poot, I'll be out in two seconds". He smiled at me. I shut the bathroom door. They said the moment the bathroom door clicked he shut his eyes and went into a deep sleep, beginning the end of life passing.

When I opened the bathroom door, his Team was surrounding his bed and every head turned and looked at me with tears in their eyes. They said "Ruth, he's in a deep sleep. He can't feel anything". His respirations were extremely labored, his right lung had collapsed and his oxygen dropped.

I ran and jumped into bed with him and put my hand on the right side of his face. Then a miracle that I will never forget happened....

My angel took a breath, opened his eyes, smiled at me and said "I Love You Mommy", turned his head towards me and at 11:54 pm Sgt. Rollin Nolan Scully passed away as I was singing "You are My Sunshine" in his ear.

He woke up out of a coma to say he loved me with a smile on his face! My son died a Hero. He brought Communities together, different occupations, made a difference in people's lives all around the world. He was a warrior who died with dignity and love to the last second.

All Nolan ever wanted to do was to serve and protect others, he did just that all the way up to his last breath and continues to do so every day. He loved his family fiercely and everyone of his "friends"!

I look at everything he accomplished in 4 short years and can only think of what he could've accomplished with a longer life. But sadly because of Childhood Cancer (Rhabdomyosarcoma to be specific), the world and our family will miss out on someone so full of love, who just wanted to protect and serve. We HAVE to do better with funding, research, treatment options. Below is a picture that seemed to grab everyone's attention because my son was terrified to leave my side, even as I showered.

Now I'm the one terrified to shower. With nothing but an empty shower rug now where once a beautiful perfect little boy laid waiting for his Mommy.

Treasure what u have before it's too late. Nolan the big hero, may u had so much fun in heaven while waiting for mummy.👼🏻
