Father and Son
On June 22, I was invited to share with my friend's church on
fatherhood. It was nice to reflect on my full-time fatherhood
days but more important was to share how we need to prioritise
our life so that our family does not suffer

One year after treatment

journeys, as I "celebrated" the one year after my treatment
was completed on April 6 last year.
