“You get the best out of others when you give the best of yourself. - Harvey S. Firestone 1868-1938”

It is a very heartfelt experience seeing people from different walk of life coming together in bringing happiness to those in need. Again, last Sunday was a day of joyful moment. It was an event organized by a hospital for the Thalassemia patients.

What impressed me most is seeing the commitments given by the artistes and personnel from ASTRO. Arrangements were done purely through e mails and text messages. My bad was that... I did not explain in detail of how the event will be. All I said was.. " See you guys at 12 noon ". Regardless the hiccups I did, Zahid, Toy, Edlin, Akma and Yazer gave a lovely unplugged performance to the patients and families. Through their gestures and smiles, I know it came from their heart. Heart of Gold.

I used to write that, I do not cry in front of the patients or families. No matter how bad the situation they are facing, how painful the child is battling with, shedding tears is a no, no to me.

However, last Sunday I could not stop a few drops of tears from flowing down...

Rest assure.. it was not due to sadness.. I was overwhelmed seeing the event being flooded by people with hearts of gold....

Thank you so much to See Bee, Zahid, Toy, Yazer, Edlin and Akma... you guys are marvelous ! :)

May Allah SWT bless you all...

sincerely,

davie

Dear beloved friends,

Together in this note, is a photo of a card made by the children at RACTAR today. The English session received an overwhelmed response ( your are SUPERB , K. Amy !! ) and the birthday party was as joyful as ever.It was indeed a blessing to see the girls smile and laugh throughout the 3 hours program. InsyaAllah, one day, you will be able to join me for the activities with the girls.

May Allah SWT bless you always, insyaAllah..

Take care and have a great week ahead.

sincerely,

davina

A few years ago, I experienced staying at the hospital during the Eid as I was taking care of my loved one. The feeling was indescribable ... sad, to be exact. But then, it was only 2 weeks for me and my loved one, syukur alhamdulillah.

However, unlike what I had experienced, the strong little heroes and their loving parents are experiencing it on day to day basis. Their courage, their faith and their strong will power is something that I always respect.

Therefore, with the Deepavali celebration coming soon, as well as Children's Day events being celebrated at schools ( when I was a little girl, I remember clearly my school did Chidren's Day Celebration in October , still the same eh? ),I humbly announcing Project "Goodies For Kiddies"

A short excerpt of a song by Ms. Carole King...

You've Got A Friend

.....

If the sky above you

Should turn dark and full of clouds

And that old north wind should begin to blow

Keep your head together and call my name out loud

And soon I will be knocking upon your door.

You just call out my name and you know where ever I am

I'll come running to see you again....

Dear little children,

InsyaAllah, we will be knocking your door/bed soon.. with " Goodies For Kiddies" :)

Hopefully, these goodies can bring some cheer during the festive season... you always have our prayers and love little children, hugs to you all...

Goodies For Kiddies

- similar to the goody bags that Wishing Well Programme did during Chinese New Year & Eid, we will be sending out goody bags to oncology wards, in conjunction with Deepavali celebration as well as Children's Day.

- tentative date : 30th Nov 2010 ( Saturday )

May Allah SWT bless you..

hugs,

davina

Every second is a blessing..

Every tears, every laughter, every smile...

There were moments.. when it was difficult to move on...

But.. God willing... there will always be a rainbow... after every storm...

InsyaAllah...

Syukur alhamdulillah, last Friday, Adik Mohd Hazim Husaini celebrated his 16th birthday. We had a quiet birthday celebration, but I assure you, he was smiling all the way. Adik Aqeela is currently sitting for her PMR at the hospital, tough little lady she is. Adik Ng Yee Lin, hmmm.. she will be having a great time with her family real soon, under a programme organized by an NGO :)

My sincere gratitude to all friends who have been supporting little programs that I did... may Allah SAW bless you always.

p/s: I came across this song recently.... dedicated to all of you, lovely friends ...:)

In Our Small Way - Michael Jackson

Maybe you and I can’t do great things
We may not change the world in one day
But we still can change some things today... In our small way
Empty words are not enough
Where there’s hurt we’ll be a crush
When there’s thirst we’ll fill each other’s cup
Because we care we love enough to share
Maybe you and I can’t do great things
We may not change the world in one day
But we still can change some things today... In our small way
In despair we’ll be the hope
And the prayer that frees the soul
We’ll be there to share each lonely road
Because we love, I know
We care enough
Maybe you and I can’t do great things
We may not change the world in one day
But we still can change some things today... In our small way
Just a little time is all it takes
What a difference just a smile can make, you’ll see
Love is all we need
Maybe you and I can’t do great things
We may not change the world in one day
But we still can change some things today... In our small way

In our small way.. hopefully, God willing... we can help to make the children smile...even for a second...

May Allah SWT bless you always...

loves,
davie
