Girl Will Be Girl - Pinky

Yesterday was just another ordinary weekend shopping at Giant but not for Iman ... She came home all smile because she had a beauty set and a new teddy bear to play with.
After a short play at the indoor playground Iman directed us to the toy's section.  She grabbed one small soft pink gingham teddy bear and then grabbed the beauty set ... also pink !  There....pink...pink...pink...  typical girl huh?   She just couldn't wait to rip open the beauty set pack.  I didn't mind the pink teddy coz it's cute and soft...I rather she have that than the old torn small pooh (she pulled off the red singlet) she adopted from her Aunty Ain.   The pooh went where ever Iman went.  She clutched it while playing with gym ball...so much for balancing ! The pooh was the loyal company while Iman had her food. Last night at sleeping time she did cry and searched for the old pooh she was attached to lately.  Mommy managed to substitute it with the new pink bear... today she accepted the pink bear and didnt searched for the old pooh.  Bye bye pooh...actually mommy hid the pooh last night...sorry darling.
Iman enjoyed playing with her beauty set.  She is still wearing the pink hairclip from this afternoon till night.  She asked me to clipped it on her head.  Usually hairclip didnt stay long on her.  Well...a girl will be girl...autistic or not, Iman still enjoy the color pink just like any 'normal' typical girl...hhmm :-)
She lost the hairpin in the ball pool at Serdang OCCT room :-( ...

Iman's OCCT Theraphy Update

Last week Iman went for her OCCT at Serdang Hospital.  She was seen to be getting along well with the young man incharge of her.  Saw her holding hand and interacting with him.  Before we left, the young man had picked her up (she is 24kg) and came out from the room.  She was happy.
This week Iman went for her OCCT at GHKL.  At the end of the session the lady incharge of  her commented that she improved a lot from the last time she saw Iman.  Iman can sit and do the task asked of her but must be rewarded with a quick swinging on the swing after each task.  Iman was talking too.   Well, that's nice to hear......thank God....always pray for better improvement...ameen.

05 Nov 2012 - Splint off mommy's little finger

Yup....bye bye Zimmer splint.
On 5/11/12 doctor at Ortho Clinic Serdang Hosp said no need to wear the splint anymore and I can start for physio theraphy.  Feel weird without the splint and bandage.  I have to relearn to use my left hand after resting it for 2 months. From x ray result the hair line crack is still visible, meaning my broken bones not fully healed yet.  Given another 2 weeks to rest and a month light duty order.  I was scheduled for physio the very next day but the physio therapist just give instruction on how to exercise (slowly) my stiff little finger at home because of the bones not fully healed.  Then only I knew that actually the bone was broken in two places.  The lastest x ray result done on 5 Nov 2012 showed them clearly.  I dont know why they were not clearly seen the previous x ray results.  Looking at my finger, a bit swollen and crooked, unbendable, still a bit painful and I am still traumatized by the whole incident...

Mummy's new collection - cast iron cooking pots and pan

Last week daddy agreed to drive mummy to IKEA.  Mummy already made a list of things to get for our renovated home including things for Iman like a swing, night light, curtain and matching bedsheet.  Few things for the kitchen, table lamps and so forth... I was frusterated the rack which I really wanted for Iman's room was not yet restocked.  But mummy was so happy to get all the cast iron casserole pots and pan which I had been dreaming of having all these years.  They were blue in color and I was able to get one ceramic serving dish in the matching color.  Now I am searching the net on how to handle them and how to cook with them.

Iman and mommy's magazine

Yesterday afternoon, Iman and Mommy spent some quiet moment together.  Iman was snuggling with me reading magazine about kitchen.  Suddenly Iman grabbed my mag, she was attracted to the cute steam muffin recipe on the mag.  Today she did the same when I tried to read the mag again.  Quickly she flipped through the mag to the pages and happily looking and counting the cute pictures.
