Medical Woes : Trigger Finger

My mom suffered joint pain in her finger a few months back. She couldn’t lift her ring and her little finger without pain. Initially we thought it was early onset of arthritis so we gave her off the shelves supplements that contained glucosamine chondroitin msm but when that didn’t seem to solve the problem, I brought her to the clinic instead.

When I brought her to the doctor, she was diagnosed with what is called Trigger Finger. Apparently Trigger Finger can happen due to one or both reasons.

Old age though you can get it as early as 30 years old and/or  Overuse of your fingers, through a lot of hard work. (my mom used to have a food stall) or typing or even texting!

My mom was given an injection to bring down the inflammation and luckily for her it worked and now she has full use of all her fingers again. In severe cases, surgery would have been necessary.

Music Monday : Unpretty (TLC)

Don’t ever let other people tell who are you, how pretty or  “Unpretty”  you are, because at the end of the day, it’s what you think of yourself that matters. Whether you wear Prada, or something you buy at the flea market, those are just decoration for the exterior you. The interior you needs to be beautified with knowledge, ethics and humanity. .. let that be who you are…

My New GLAM Bag

When we came back from errands today, I saw the PosLaju van at the lift lobby and I immediately knew that either my Egyptian cotton robes or my Glam bag has arrived.

You see, I’m expecting a few packages this week and one of them was a prize that I won when I joined Emila’s contest recently. Emila mentioned she was going to mail the handbag out this week. I was super excited but was worried that I may already have missed the mailman so we rushed upstairs. True enough I saw the notification note that the mailman has left at our front gate. We missed him by 10minutes. However since the van was still downstairs, I grabbed the note and rushed downstairs and waited by the van. lol.. And true enough, 5 minutes later he arrived. He was still around because he had another delivery on the 9th floor!

So yeay I got my new handbag and a cute little notepad with a kitty picture of it.

Thanks so much Emila.. I love my gifts! Muahs!
