First time chemo?
You need to read this.
I understand that there are many "freshman" in April that will be going for their first chemotherapy.
So I thought these tips below will help...
Chemotherapy can leave you feeling wiped out. It isn’t a one-and-done treatment — it’s a journey and, as with any journey, planning ahead can make the road less bumpy.
5 things you need to take note before you go for your first chemotherapy
1. Start eating healthy
Plan a balance diets. More greens. Drink 2litre of water a day. Fruits before meal (30-60 mins before). Take moderate portion of meat.
*** I had fresh coconut juice on daily basis. I ate fruits before meals which means minimum of 3 fruits a day. I took banana n papaya too to help with possible constipation caused by chemo. I ate lots of fish, sometimes chicken and pork. I don't take beef or lamb due to personal preference. I ate lots of high iron veges like spinach and black fungus - it helps to increase my red blood cell (haemoglobin). If haemoglobin is low, body will not be able to proceed with chemo. You either delay the process or require blood transfusion. So plan wisely and eat well.
2. Practice proper hygiene, avoid germs
- Wash and sanitize your hand after going toilet (esp hospital n public toilet)
- Stay away from crowded places. But if you need to do some marketing / shopping, put a mask on.
- Reduce the visits from friends, you might get infected with virus like flu or even get fever after come in contact with them (they might not realized as their body immune system is fighting the viruses / germs).
- Avoid sick ppl. If anyone is down w fever /flu (example) in the family, don't share your food or getting too near. Family members needs to be equally cautious on their own health too if they have cancer patient in the family.
- If possible, reduce the contact with pets
3. Be emotionally prepared
- Get yourself ready to expect and accept the weaker (physically) and different side of you. Dealing with all the side effects. Dealing with people who are not familiar with cancer. Dealing with all the NO - NO s from different people (check with doctor to clarify further). Just be prepared.
4. Find your motivation
- It's going to be bored during the chemo intervals. It's going to be 3 weeks once. Find something to do. Like growing a plant (I grow a tomato but it died in e end! Too much of water! Hahaha). Or picking up new hobby like cooking and baking. Watch movies / dramas!
Don't stay in the bed all day long. It's not going to help you. Do light exercise.
Prepare a to do list! When you recover, what you want to do? I went to the beach after I recover! And I brought my parents along too!
5. Be positive and have patience
- understand that people closed to you are affected by your diagnosis too. You might be physically challenged going through this ordeal but trust me, you're not alone. Your husband, your wife, childrens, parents, boyfriend, girlfriend... They're as heartbroken and confused as you too. Have patience dealing with them. Affected family need to have patience dealing with chemo patient too.
Read more bout positive quotes and stories of cancer survivor. It'll help. Talk to your love ones bout how u feel. Don't keep everything to yourself.
Its all about love and understanding.
Looking forward to your "graduation" day!

《男友與他的前妻》
電影《Iron Man 2》裡,壞人Justin Hammer的工廠生產了一款威力無窮的子彈,這顆最強力的殺人武器最後被命名為甚麼?Ex-Wife。
前妻,是讓男人最無還擊之力的身份。
女孩G認識了一個已婚男人。已婚男多次坦白自己與妻子的婚姻已到破裂邊緣,並向G許下離婚的承諾。終於,男的真的離婚了,並和G開始同居生活。然而過了不久,G發現男人多次瞞著她,出席前妻的家庭聚會,並與她保持秘密通訊。他們會復合嗎?G不知道,我當然也不會知道。
不過前妻,絕對是男人的一個心結。
一個曾經談過戀愛,在教堂裡發過誓要愛她一生一世,同床共枕過不知多少年,家當財產曾經糾纏在一起的女人,哪有這麼容易話分就分。就算一切都談得乾手淨腳,男人心裡還有一道女人永遠不會明白的感受。
無論誰欠誰,當一個男人還算有點血性,他對這位前妻,永遠都會有一份責任感。這一點,就算在同樣處境下,女人對前夫都不一定會有。男人天生多情但長情。撐起一頭家,是男人的責任。
終於一天,這頭家散了,那個曾經愛過的女人,仍然會帶著那頭家的影子,長留在男人的心裡。於是,只要她有甚麼事,男人也會感到那頭曾經存在過的家出了問題,因此感同身受,從而出手補救。
女孩G擔心他們可能會舊情復熾,我當然不會否認這個可能性,但反過來,她應慶幸自己所選的,是一個對舊人仍有餘情的男人。若然他是一個離婚之後,從此就可以一刀兩斷,完全把前妻拋諸腦後的男人,要怕的,應該是她才對。
若然你也正與一個離過婚的男人談戀愛,請你要接受一個現實──他的前妻, 將會繼續是他人生的一部分,直到永遠。
