sorry for the delay in writing, I've been tired and groggy the past few days.
i will upload the pics soon of everything also ;-O
all went well.
i was given TWO needles in the arm, which admittedly were very uncomfortable but then again, i am a woos when it comes to needles! we then stared at my arm as a red bump formed, which i was later told was a good sign, that my immune system was kicking in and reacting.
it took approx 1.5 hours before the 'symptoms' hit, and hit hard. i felt like i had REALLY bad flu, shivers to the bone and on and off fever for two days.
But, to be frank, it's bearable. i took some pain killers to help me ease my way through it and just kept thinking of the positive future doing all this was going to give me.
The Dr was swift and positive, regaling motivational stories about patients who have made full recovery from this - which was nice way to get my head in the right place while receiving the vaccine.
I am patiently now waiting till Monday 30th March when i have to return for shot number 2 ;-)

I've arrived in Hong Kong and currently here for a night so as i may see my Dr here and collect more Thymosin (which I've been advised to keep injecting twice weekly till end of treatments.......)

Tomorrow i head home to Singapore to start my new routine.
No drinking of alcohol, no processed foods, no unrefined sugar. exercise one hour every day (or at least try gentle swimming / stretching etc)
gosh at this rate but my birthday in July I'm going to be looking AMAZING!
watch out life, here i come ;-)

will fill in more news once back, rested and into my Singapore routine ;-)
remember, please email me ANYTIME you have ANY questions regarding this.

sending you love and gratitude.
thank you all, i feel blessed that you have taken the time to follow this and for all your beautiful emails and comments.
promise I'll fill the funny antidotes of 'side trips' etc soon.
signing off for now.
I LOVE YOU! *I feel people just dont say that enough to each other, so be prepared for me to start completely over doing now, saying it to you all, alot, and i will really mean it too! i sincerely LOVE YOU, for being my friend, for being there for me and for just being you!
sorry about the mush, but once in a while i've to just do it ;-)
hugs +kisses + wishing good health to you all!
