I know Shin is safe and "well" and in a place she thought did not exist. You continue to be so thoughtful, full of grace and sensitive. I love the music (in May) on the blog. It is BEAUTIFUL as are the pictures. I think the song is you and you will find your way. Just continue to be the loving, caring person who is Tony.

And ...Hi, I was re-reading some of the blogs again. And wanted to say I am very much grateful to Shin for having this blog and leaving very valuable information behind. My dad is suffering from pancreatic cancer.He had just finished his chemo in Apr. In the weeks that followed, his body was racked with pain. Finally after some persuasion, he got checked into the hospital and his doctors confirmed that his cancer had spread. We were shocked, we hadn't anticipated the cancer spreading so soon. <br />Which is why I am re reading Shin's blog again. I am no longer that afraid and it is giving me clearer ideas as how to deal with it and also to deal with my Dad's deoteriating health. So thanks Shin. Wherever U might be.And also to Ublog Tony for not shutting thismaggienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5650979411395789660.post-78037187313428131242009-05-07T11:42:00.000+08:002009-05-07T11:42:00.000+08:00Hey Tony,

I think about you, the kids and Shin often, but even more so today because I just found out a college friend just passed away from ovarian cancer at the age of 42. She, too, leaves behind a husband and two young children. Once again this teaches us all about the preciousness of life and the importance of embracing every day just as Shin did. <br /><br />Love to you and your family. <br /><br />MayMayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10146881097830505862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5650979411395789660.post-85711794776018063382009-05-07T06:52:00.000+08:002009-05-07T06:52:00.000+08:00Hi --

I was shocked to read the most recent alumni publication had listed her name 'in memoriam.' Google brought me to this blog.

We were good friends. Her name just showed up in a most unexpected place in our alumni magazine. I had no idea; I'm so sorry about your loss. This blog sent a wave of memories and emotions over me. Her passages among others on religion and making/leaving friends reminded me of what a uniquely clever, sensitive, "skeptical" (as she said), wonderful person she was, always ready with that incredibly wry sense of humor. She is truly missed.<br /><br />It has over been 15 years since I last saw her; I think we got together once after college. I knew about her move to Singapore -- I think that dates me -- and we had corresponded once by email when it was a new and mysterious system that could link me to this friend who had "left" for the other side of the world. <br /><br />I have two little ones a bit younger than yours. My heart goes out to you and them and all your family and friends.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5650979411395789660.post-26850427012280484872009-04-30T13:46:00.000+08:002009-04-30T13:46:00.000+08:00xxxxLeighbeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16376700098397659407noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5650979411395789660.post-33294954151121053672009-04-25T06:35:00.000+08:002009-04-25T06:35:00.000+08:00Things still okay?

Half a year ago, they lost their mum at the age of 9 and 6. As the death was abrupt and the family did not have any time to prepare, things did not go well. My niece and nephew kept crying for mommy. Things are better now since their granny moves in and gives them care and love. I guess kids deal with loss a lot easier than us adults because they are less attached to their emotions. <BR/><BR/>I sincerely hope that all will be well for you and your family. Thank you for the post. I have learnt a lot from all the posts.<BR/><BR/>God Bless.<BR/>JennJennhttp://aerputyh.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5650979411395789660.post-64489310451194624332009-04-11T13:19:00.000+08:002009-04-11T13:19:00.000+08:00Hi TonyHere is the link to the ST article "Dying W...Hi Tony<BR/><BR/>Here is the link to the ST article "Dying Well" featuring Shin, in case you do not have it yet:<BR/><BR/>http://health.asiaone.com/Health/News/Story/A1Story20090407-133915.html<BR/><BR/>Regards<BR/>IdaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5650979411395789660.post-89808553871002109942009-04-10T01:54:00.000+08:002009-04-10T01:54:00.000+08:00You are doing great Tony.

Good to know the kids are doing well and that your mom is beside you. Reach out if you need anything from us. Shin's last SMS to me was so sweet and so simple. A thank you for me for posting a story of a moment shared with her, for the kids' keepsake. I should be the one thanking her for inspiring me with her courage and intelligence. I am keeping this SMS as long as I can as it was my last exchange with her. But I feel your pain. Do what is best for you to manage.

I felt equally bad for not checking the blog in the past three weeks so out of the blue today, ignoring deadlines, phone calls, screaming kids, I'm checking the blog. Shin does still pop up in my life as I keep passing by the organic store and keep seeing our mutual fish supplier. Today, I was scrolling through the "S" section of my iPhone and saw two entries listed next to Shin. For a second there I wanted to press it and call, but not sure what I would say if you were on the line. That I missed her too and hope you and the kids are doing great? Then, I didn't know whether to delete the entry or not. In the end, I didn't. I'm not ready yet either. It may just be a phone entry but I still have some promises I made to her I want to keep before I clean my address book. Just as some of the other readers wrote - in your own time. <BR/><BR/>Hope all is well,<BR/><BR/>T, Skylar's MommyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
