2010

Now that 2009 is history, I am hoping for a better 2010. After finding that I have 4 arteries blockages in my heart,.I was schedule for quadruple bypass surgery in March 2009. After successful surgery I was re-admitted to the he hospital twice after begin discharged. On the second admission I was admitted to the ER in SunnyBrook health Science after a cardiac arrest.


In January 8th 2010 I had an appointment with my Neurologist and everthing looking good.
My next appointment is in Febuary 2010 with my Cardiologist. If all goes well I am hoping t have my driving license reactivated.

5 weeks after cardiac arrest and survery for ICD

September 24th 2009 was when I had a cardiac arrest on the way to a wedding rehearsal photo shoot. I was discharge from Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre on October 2nd 2009 after nine days in hospital. Recovery from my cardiac arrest has been slow and steady but as to how much memory lost I am not able to tell.

After being discharge from the hospital my driver license was suspended by the Cardiologist. That licenses suspension literary means I was grounded and homebound since the discharged except for the occasional visit to my family physician and specialists.

Out in the park

It was a beautiful day after all. Mrs Tee is in the states with her friends doing a bus tour of Boston, New York and Washington. As for me I was out in the park in Mississauga. I was able to catch some of the air show from a distance but most of all enjoying the view.

Doing more hours at work

It is more than 5 months since my surgery. There are tightness in my chest where the surgery was perform otherwise I am feeling fine. My short term medical leave is running out soon and will have to go into my long term medical leave. However, I am not planning to enrole into the long term medical leave. I feeling really well and want to consider going back full time at work. My team has been kind to me and reduced my work load so far and I do not see any change when I am back full time.

A monthe ago I start 3 half days work schedule and last week I have extended it to 2 and a half days work. Starting next week I will be doing 3 and a half days work.

Helping my friend M.P.P. Peter Fonseca at this community BBQ

It has been a busy Sunday on August 23th 2009. Yeu-Tin and I both attended church in the morning than came home to change and pick up my camera to help Peter Fonseca the member of parliment for the province of Ontario in Mississauga East for Cooksville. Yeu-Tin help out with serving salad while I was helping Peter with the photos. It was busy at his Annual Free Community BBQ. More than 3000 local residence from his riding were there in force. Definitely the the word free help to bring the crowds regardless of the long line up for food. Hopefully, next year we do not make the same mistake as this year having choosen the same date as Ramadan for the community BBQ. Next year Peter promise to ensure that the date choosen are not during the Ramadan.

My first week at work.

Started to work on Monday, Wednesday and Friday every week for half a day starting July 20th 2009. I actually started my short-term sick leave on March 20th 2009 because that was my scheduled surgery but was postponed to March 25th 2009. So I was actually off for four months. Time certainly passes by very fast. So far the workload has been light but I am not sure it how long it will last before the task start to pile in. Will update the blog as soon as I have something new to add.
