Surprised...

Last weekend we were surprised by a sad news.

My husband went to the golf club and he met the paed (paeditrician) who was with us during the delivery of our 2nd baby last time. They chatted for a while and hubby happily told him about my 3rd pregnancy. The paed (Dr Philip) congratulated him and said that definitely Dr Chin wouldn't the gynae this time (Dr Chin was my gynae for my 2nd pregnancy). And hubby stared blankly at him. Only then, Dr. Philip realised that my husband didn't have a clue that my gynae had passed away early this month.

It had been a long time since our last visit to Dr Chin's clinic which was last December. When we were going to confirm my 3rd pregnancy, we didn't go to his clinic. We just went to see the regular MD. Usually during our visits to Dr Chin's Clinic, my husband and him will exchange short golf stories. I didn't mind at all coz I know what is like to meet people with the same interest : )

I still remembered after the delivery of our 2nd baby, Dr Chin told us that the room I was staying in (Medical Centre) was the same room he stayed few years ago when he was admitted to the centre. Vaguely I remembered, he was admitted due to heart problem.

Our heartfelt condolences to the family of Dr S.L. Chin on the sad demise of one of Miri's top specialists. It is such a great loss...

Thats sad. We were also quite shocked when we learnt that the anesthetist who had attended to Ez during Rahil's birth had passed away in a road accident.
