This past weekend, I took the kids to a friend's place who invited us to their annual mid Autumn Moon Festival celebration or Têt-Trung-Thu (tet-troong-thoo) in Vietnamese.The kids had a blast! It was their first time celebrating it with friends and with many other kids. The tradition in this holiday is that families, parents and friends gather together with their children and tell fairy tales and serve mooncakes under the silvery moon. It is a special day where everyone gathers together with an abundance of food and kids walk together holding candlelit lanterns during dawn. Here were some pictures I took using my iphone. I was a little hesitant to go by myself with the kids since I was worry I may not be able to handle watching all of them since they had a open ungated pool. But the kids did really well! I'm so glad I was able to celebrate this special occasion with the kids and friends.
A visit to my Primary Care Doctor
So today after dropping the kids off to school, and since my husband was off today to watch Emma, I decided to be extra cautious and pay a visit to my primary care doctor to checkup on my shortness of breath. My oxygen levels were measured it was good at 98% and he listened to my lungs and did hear a little bit of wheezing. He gave me a breathing treatment and I instantly felt better! He gave me a hand held inhaler to have and to use for the next few days and also gave me a slip to get a chest X-ray done. He'll call me with the results if there's anything serious.
My Oncologist did call me back to follow up on me and said if it this continues, to be sure to follow up with him for a visit as well. All in all, I'm so glad I have a team of doctors who's here to help treat me. Let's keep up our prayers for my continued recovery.
