Drama - 天国的阶梯 (Stairway to Heaven)

This show took me awhile to finish it. Not because it is not nice or boring but because hubby is back and my day was actually packed with more activities :) Anyway, for those who can't get enough of the korean romance, here's one that you should not miss ... p/s:- get prepared to cry your eyes out if you are those emotional type :p


Jung-suh and Song-joo grew up together. They were always there for each other. Tragedy begins when Song Joo begins his studies overseas without her and his father remarries Tae Mira. She takes in her two children from a previous marriage, Tae-hwa and Yuri.

Yuri is envious of the life that Jung Suh leads and is determined to take everything away from her, including Song-joo. Tae-hwa begins to develop feelings for his stepsister, however Jung-suh still loves Song-joo.

Five years later, tragedy occurs when Jung-suh gets into a car accident causing her to lose her memory. Together with Tae-hwa, they start anew. Song-joo is led to believe that she is dead. However, when they meet again one day, he is determined to remind her of the love they had for one another. When fate finally seemed to be on their side, Jung-suh is diagnosed with eye cancer.

Oswald eye checkup

Brought Oswald to his PD for his annual assessment and during the assessment PD did an eye screening. That brief screening suggested that Oswald might not be seeing quite well and PD suggest that we bring him to an eye specialist for a detail check up.

I'd booked him in for a checkup this morning at Gleneagles and result of the check up as follows:-


Convert to layman terms = Oswald got astigmatism for both eyes (200 - right eye, 225 - left eye). Though it was said that is it normal for kids his age to have astigmatism and he is still in the acceptable range but his degree is on the higher end of the acceptable figures. Doctor said for this kind of result at this age, very likely the astigmatism is due to the shape of the eye ball. But at this age, there's still chance that his eye ball will grow rounder and hence astigmatism would reduce. So, meanwhile, doctor said to let him put on spectacles and to review him 2 months later to see how is the situation.

My Pressies!!!

My rewards ... thanks dear :)
