During the sub prime crisis when i just left NS, was working in NUH as a labtop technican to replace old labtops with newer models. Most of the time i was assigned to depressing wards like cardiac dept, premature dept, children cancer ward, children NKF ward, ICU ward to replace labtops. All these sight of parents besides their child, made me appreciate my healthy self and learn to count my blessings.

Omg how about we call her down and we could talk. I had exactly rhadomyosarcoma too when I was 10 years old and I'm currently 27. I kinda got goosebumps when she said rhadomyosarcoma because that is extremely rare. I'm happy to see she's well though!

[@rylee4383]

I'm so sorry to hear that. In fact I've seen boys and girls as young 10 years old given chemo drugs and going rounds of surgery.
