My Birthday Dinner Celebration




On 22nd March 09, at 8pm, 11 of my cell members, close frens and half sister and brother celebrated with me, my b'day at Fork & Spoon Restaurant, Kota D'sara.
The neatly arranged strawberry wholemeal carrot walnut cake was tirelessly baked & tediously decorated by none other than ME!I spend almost 2 & 1/2 hours, 1 hour baking & 1 & 1/2 hours decorating it!
Well thank God, it turned out well & was enjoyed by everyone.
Food was ok but service was slow.
Anyway, it was a great celebration spending time and catching up with frens.
I also reflected on what God has done for me in the past 32 years of my life where I shared a brief testimony. (Please read below)

Good evening friends.
Thank you all very much for coming tonight to join me in celebrating my b’day.
The reason I’ve invited you all to celebrate my birthday today is because to testify God’s power, protection, goodness & faithfulness in 32 years of my life. It’s a miracle that I’m standing here, alive & well to be able to celebrate my 32nd birthday today.


As some of you know that I have a medical condition. When I was 8 months old, the doctors diagnosed me as a Thalassaemia major. Thalassaemia major is an inherited blood disorder which requires regular blood transfusion for the rest of that person’s life. The only cure for this is to undergo bone marrow transplant of which is not possible due to the incompatibility of both of my sisters’s marrow which was done when I was 10.

The doctors told my mum that I’ll only live up to 10 years old. But as you see, by God’s grace & power He has extended my life & given me a life span of more than 3 decades which has proven the doctors wrong!! PTL!
I also thank God for my family members especially my mum & 2 wonderful sisters who had taken care of me when I was a child. If it weren’t for my mum’s objection from disagreeing with the doctors to do the surgery to remove my enlarged spleen when I was young, I wouldn’t be alive today as well.
In addition, I also thank God too for His divine protection for the past 32 years of my life as I’ve met with 3 car accidents. Miraculously, by His supernatural power & protection, I sustained with only minor injuries. I’m grateful to God for sustaining & protecting me all these years.
All glory to Him!
I hope by my sharing you all will be encouraged & blessed.

Mat 19:26-With man this is impossible but with God all things are possible!
Psa 139:14- I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well.
