21 Sep 2011 - OCCT Serdang Hospital

Another OCCT appointment at Serdang Hospital - morning session. I think I prefer morning session because Iman is more relax and alert during this time compared to afternoon session when she usually tired and sleepy and not cooperative sometimes. During this session, again Iman was pared with another male practical student. The boy was from Sarawak, he kept calling Iman, Aiman but quickly realized his mixed up. Aiman is a boy's name...hhhmmm.
Iman was still having problem finishing a task while in the confined seat. She was more interested in the bird dangling from the light room' ceiling than the lights in the room. Then when we going from the light room to the ball's room Ima, who was struggling a bit with her slippers, were heard saying, `I'm coming, wait, where you going?' she ran after me and quickly grabbed my hand. There.... she can speak... speak appropriately to the situation, I mean.
She was happy playing in the pool of balls and then sat `patiently' sticking stickers using glue. She definitely can concentrate when she's interested in the task.
Lately we are hearing Iman referring/calling me MOMMA and sometimes she added `a' in front; a momma ? Sometimes she kept repeating Momma, Momma then kissed me... Why she just refused to call me Umi ? hhhmmm...should I change referring myself as Momma instead of Umi? May be I should ?

17 Sep 2011 - My Cousin's Adopted Grand Daughter's Wedding

That weekends we went back home to Segamat to attend my cousin's adopted grand daughter's wedding. The girl (named Nurul Ain) was given to my cousin's son's (known as Nong to us) wife by the grand father to be adopted when she was a baby. She was borne into an Indian/Hindu family. We were wondering and surprised why the ceremony was so `plain' since she was the only child. After the Majlis Bersanding, we stopped by at my third sister's house for raya visit. Iman enjoyed herself playing in the twin's play room. We sisters and my mum did take photos there, after few years without.

14 Sep 2011 - Iman OCCT at GHKL

!4 Sep 2011 - another appointment for OCCT at GHKL. We were there early, Iman was in a good mood. While waiting to be called in Iman made an impression on another patient; a 7 year old chinese girl who was also an autistic waiting to see her child psychiatrist. The chinese girl had kissed Iman ! Then, the mother welcome Iman to sit with them and the girl shared her ipad with Iman. The mother told me her daughter never want to share her ipad with her sister at home.
At last Iman's name was called. To my disappointment, Iman therapist was changed...again! We had to go through the history ... again... hhhhmm.

Sharing with a stranger ?
