I spent 3 hours at the hospital because it is the Malaysian King’s Birthday today, which means that none of the neighbourhood clinics are open. Just for the record, did you know that Malaysia is a country with one of the most public holidays in the world? Don’t people get sick on public holidays? Oh, how can I forget….Doctors need their holidays too.
I got an earful from the A&E Doctor for not coming in earlier, to which I meekly explained that this flu of mine has been ongoing for the last month and in fact, I’d just finished a course of antibiotics, proving that on the contrary, Doctors have actually been my new best friends. Used my Indian blood (yeah, I have some Indian blood…..and Portuguese, and Chinese) negotiating skills to talk her out of giving me an injection and it worked! I am absolutely terrified of needles. Needles and lizards. There. Now you know my weaknesses.
She gave me some steroid pills instead to be taken immediately (pray it doesn’t bloat me up because a pumpkin honestly needs no more puffing up). After finishing the nebuliser, she told me that if I wasn’t well by tomorrow evening, then I would have to be admitted.
WHAT!!!??&#%#!!!!
No way am I being admitted into hospital!!! What would happen to Little Tee?
So I am praying hard. The last times I prayed this hard was when my Mother was struck by cancer and when Little Tee was hospitalised. Which is to confirm that I do pray everyday, just not this hard….
I am praying real hard now that my recovery will be swift. The Doctor checked my lungs again after the nebuliser and still didn’t feel good so I have to go back tomorrow for another dose, after which she will decide if I get admitted or not.
From being hospitalised for asthma in the UK for 10 days, rest be assured that being cooped up in hospital for asthma is no picnic despite the much needed R&R that I so crave. So much so that I actually snuck out of the hospital for a few hours and went shopping on Oxford Street. Thank you, May, for arranging the kidnap of this very, very naughty UCH patient.

Mamapumpkin spent 7 years in London committing crimes to gain her Bartlett degree in Architecture. She then spent 7 years as a Stay At Home Mom raising her children as documented in this blog of over 15 years thereafter returning to the Corporate World stronger than ever as the Country Director of a British Multinational. She sets out to prove to all, that you can have anything and everything that you want; if you have that fire of desire burning within and the drive to work hard. Even better with much love.
Mamapumpkin has not only grown corporate businesses successfully in the past but has grown not one but TWO network marketing businesses in the notorious MLM (Multi-Level Marketing) industry, achieving success in under 2 years. She believes in the MLM business model but realises the DRASTIC PITFALLS and great stigma attached to it, understanding EXACTLY WHY the majority would shy away (or RUN for their lives) from ANY MLM business. But open your eyes and take time to understand it intellectually, remove your hang-ups, confirm your research, and you may just want to seize an opportunity. She did. And no, she never went about chasing people for sales. She had a sophisticated system work for her through technology and a smartphone.
She now impacts lives authentically with proven strategies amassed through the last decade of her own transformation offering online coaching programmes and always supports the underprivileged. She believes that we can all have a life of our own desires to enable real contribution into the world. But first, one needs to understand what this all means.
A beautiful life without limits.
If you wish to learn some tools to propel your life forward guaranteed, be brave enough to make contact as her life's purpose is to build people. She operates through a discovery call after which she will commit to helping you. Or not.
Most lose out on an opportunity because they are afraid they would be sold to, conned or whatever fear resides in their brain without even trying. And that's on them.
Mamapumpkin is a living testimony that women really can have a lot. Being financially and time free has enabled her to travel the world anytime, anywhere, doing anything, and she spends most of her days with her children, having fun, and supporting others wherever she can. Also having fun.
