Dengue Alert !!!


One of my dedicated cardiac care unit staff nurse was admitted recently for Dengue Haemorraghic Fever to Intensive Care Unit requiring BIPAP machine, a non invasive mechanical ventilation. It was quite a touching moment for me and the rest of the cardiology team to see her in that critical condition knowing her as one of the best staff nurse i have ever worked with. She needed platelet tranfusion as well.
Recently, there is a sudden surge of Dengue Haemorrhagic fever cases which we believed soon will come to an outbreak. Probably the virulence strain of dengue virus again this time. There was few cases of dengue deaths were reported recently.
Just a reminder to whoever reading this blog, be cautious and please do check your Full Blood Count (FBC) if the fever still persist after few days. One can expect that the total white cells and platelet level will be reduced and haemocrit will be elevated (signs of capilary leakage). Fluid management is crucially important in determining the outcome. The Dengue Haemorrhagic fever usually get worst when the fever started to subside (what we called as DEFERVESCENCE PERIOD. normally Day 5 or 6 of overall illness. I definitely have to see all Dengue cases from now on when i do my registrar call.
well..To Linda ..our dedicated staff...we are praying for your speedy recovery and to everyone here, please don't wait until you enter the period of prolonged hypotension (low blood pressure) and severe capillary leak which sometimes difficult to reverse...and Death will be the sequalae...

Terasa tua pulak aku !!!he he...Anak Budiman, si Mimin pun dah mesra dengan aku... suka dia dapat coklat..dan lahap juga dia makan satay..

Scalene Muscle For A Paul Smith Ad... Errrr !!!


To work and to learn technique about photography especially for advertisement from a photographer's friend is a wonderful privillege for me to upgrade myself in term of knowledge towards better skills in potrait photography. I did more than 200 photos for this one but it turned out THIS is the photographer's choice..mmm hampeh !!..ha ...ha ... only my scalene muscle modelled for this shot.. This is the raw image , no photoshop and wording yet and he decided to put this up as one of his work resume and photo sample. I love the Paul Smith perfume very much in deed... and Story of course !...It is very complex to understand what a real photographer see in every shots he took and it depends solely on what he wanted to potray..


This picture was taken to promote my Nikon camera and my Apple Ipod...i Love gadgets...life isn't merrier without gadgets in my hands. Great experience to start my own click click for ads and potrait photography. Thanks for the "tunjuk ajar"....Anyone keen to be my MODEL ??

The "Monyet" Happy Family .... Sweet... Too Sweet

Gambar sekeluarga monyet ni aku rakamkan ketika berada di Langkawi baru baru ni... Semasa time bosan ketika tiada aturcara..time free...aku pun duduk sebentar melihat gelagat monyet monyet ni yang menghiburkan....bila dinilai akrab sungguh keluarga monyet ni..

Ni..... si bapa monyet tengah seolah-olah mengajar anak lelakinya cara betul makan buah-buahan tu... comel sangat tengok gelagat mereka dari jauh...


Si ibu dan anak perempuan yang sedikit pemalu cuba melarikan diri bila menyedari kehadiran pemerhati seperti aku... Laju betul mereke menderu.. Aku suka gambar ni...si bapa tu tak takut pun.... macam I don't care !!! he he. Masih lagi mengajar anaknya makan dengan betul.

Lepas dah kenyang..mereka pun beransur pulang... Bila aku tafsirkan kembali...bahagia juga hidup mereka sebagai sebuah keluarga walaupun mereka hanya MONYET ! Nilai mereka tinggi dalam semangat kekeluargaan... Terkesima sekejap aku..Kagum !!!

Simple SMS...Deep Meaning...Least Expected !


After I had a so-called photo-shoot for a photographer friend in the morning and had my lunch at my usual Malay restaurant in Bandar Tun Razak, I went home watching some TV's, lazing around the house, did some laundry and errrr. listening Dato' Siti album while watching the rain fell down.. I did browsing the DLSR book to get to know my camera better ( I bought this at TIMES in Pavillion during our marvellous lunch with Andrea, Nafisah and Hamdi).
Out of a sudden, while the rain started to pour down heavily., at the same time my favourite Dato' Siti track ie. CINTAMU...my HTC beeped for an incoming SMS and i received this lovely SMS... no fancy words, simple but really makes me smile through out the day and i am sure i will not get any Monday blues tomorrow. To add to my own surprise, it came from someone i least expected... THANK YOU dear.....WHO ?? Mmmmm ..A secret !!

CINTAMU

sung by : Siti Nurhaliza

Nota cinta lama, kujadikan lagu

Walau tidak seindah, , bisik kata yang kau beri

Tetap dalam hati, siang malam menanti,

Tak jemu aku, dibuai kerinduan

Belum pernah.. ada.... getaran sebegini

Memang benar aku dilanda..cinta kepadamu

Bercahaya hidupku, dalam taman cinta,

Sehingga segalanya seperti pelangi,

Kau sambutlah rinduku, jangan lepas lagi.

Kupatri setia, Seteguh kasihmu buatku...

So.... everyone who read this,... what are you waiting.for ???..send something similar to your loved one (your parent, friends, girlfriend, boyfriend, sister, brother..whoever important to u NOW !!!)... if you care !!

San Francisco Steakhouse Again.... KLCC






I ended up " makan" again... errrrr... i am going to get fat again and later , I have to spend some good exercise time and cardio exercise at the gym to maintain my weight. You couldn't say NO to food ! I had my dinner the other day in San Fracisco Steakhouse , KLCC. As compared to the outlet in Midvalley, KLCC offers more breath-taking views and the place is much more cosy than the later. Nice to gossip about something.. he he



I tried this red grape juice which PATRITI...the 1st HALAL red grape drink in San Francisco and it costs about RM 45 per bottle... arrrghh .. expensive ! but the taste is luxurious.. he he






The bread and the butter as the initial munch........



Somebody was celebrating his birthday there... and that group of workers sang him Happy Birthday...but the sound was pretty annoying.. definite bad singing.. he he.. kind of spoilt that someone important occasion !! to be frank he he he...





The food.... i had this Norwegian Grilled Salmon which suited my taste bud well..and i did not want to eat that too much calories that night..





This was Dr Hamdi choice... The Lobster... i did not eat this as Andrea scared me with the high uric acid content and i may end up getting gouty athritis...

Salads............

The desserts......






It was incomplete if the visit to KLCC at night time without capturing KLCC , our best national landmark...



I love this green and black reflection.....



Learn this technique "merosakkan gambar in a nice way " ..he he


I better hit the gym again and reduce this makan makan activity... he he...My colleague , Dr Ben ...had just joined Fitness First and we are going to become work-out partners..at least i ll have more determination, encouragement and discipline.. Hey Ben...lets go and pump that muscle.. he he

MAKAN MAKAN ....is so IRRESISTABLE !!!!!

A Year Older, A Lot Wiser.....



Hari Selasa tanggal 19/8/08 lalu, kami rancang buat half surprised birthday celebration untuk Hamdi yang menyambut Hari Lahir dia yang ke 34. Yeah... dia nampak muda dari umurnya..aku jugak yang nampak tua... aaa...tak kisahlah..Shah dan Beruang Madu jadi organiser.


So.. bertempat di Green Box, Jusco Cheras Selatan , aku, Shah, Beruang Madu pun pergi ke sana di samping Lily dan MNN yang aku jumpa buat pertama kalinya. Nice to meet both of you my dear bloggers. Wow..Lily pun ada NIKON yang lagi gempak dan MNN ...the faceless guy (la ..tak boleh nak letak gambar kau kat sini..kau lagi kacak ler dari Brad Pitt tu. he he) . Kalau nak tengok lebih gambar aku...visit la blog Lily !!!





Me and the birthday orang yang dah lanjut umur... he he.. Happy Birthday Hamdi....34 ??? ooo yer ker ?? Hope you like the birthday cake and my present tu.

When the doctor sings..... Shah suka lagu yang mellow mellow ni....tapi suara dia BEST !! Aku sendiri pun nyanyi lagu Mendendam (Marcel), Tanpa Kekasihku (Agnes Monica...he he dia orang tak pernah dengar) dan duet dengan Lily lagu Ceritera Cinta (Jac dan Rio Febrian) serta duet dengan Hamdi lagu Over You (Daughtry) . Tapi paling best kita orang melalak dan jerit ramai ramai lagu Ikhlas Tapi Jauh, Bad Day (Daniel Powter) dan lagu hit terkini I'm Yours.. Best bangat !! Tapi paling merdu bangat tentulah Beruang Madu...tetapi suka sangat dia lagu 80-an...he he.. Bilalah nak boleh karaoke lagu Bawaku Terbang (Fabolous Cats)
