a moment that changed my life to a degree that i still could not comprehend. i do not know how to start this blog, but i'll just give it my best shot...
i was working in kauther, oman when this incident occured. i'll not go into details of what we were doing but during the operation, i had some caustic soda splashed into my left eye. right now, my vision is blurred due to the damage of the alkali burn on my cornea. the doctors said that the healing is progressing positively but none of them could say how much my vision could improve. the fact that i could still see was good enough news for them.
the good news is, the doctors think i have a great chance to recover. the bad news, my life has to be on a halt. i was supposed to attend school on the 20th of January which is about three weeks away. however, there is major doubt that i could actually recover in time for that.
i really can't find the words to describe my feelings right now...
i'll keep this post short since i'm not supposed to spend to long in front of my pc. but before i go, i would really like to thank everyone of the frac04 crew of oman for taking care of me after the accident. i know this incident brought around a lot of trouble to the crew, i'm truly sorry for that. oman has generally been a good experience for me. great opportunity, wonderful people. it's just too bad that it has to end like this.
anyway, i'm home right now and i've never been so glad to be in the comfort of my own room at night...

Hi Nic,
I am really sorry to hear that. Suppose words come to be easily when i typed them, but even so, I am rather speechless.
I can't imagine what you re undergoing now, but no matter what, keep you head up, and think positively. It's probably going to be a small injury and you ll be healed in no time. Consider you are on a freaking few thousand-dolllars a month PAID HOLIDAY. Nothing to lose, but time....enjoy life, enjoy the company of your family and CL and enjoy the spirituality of life.
Life is fragile...and as i once told you, sometimes we re too busy chasing what we think we want, that we forget what's important in life. ...family, friends, love, God...
Take care.
Kam
Get well soon.
May God bless you.
Aloha! Keep recovering! Please, do do do take good care of yourself! You still gotta take care of CL (hehe) and your family! Safety is always your priority! Take care and love ya! Do meet up again in January! i'll be back on the 9th!
;) Hugs&Kisses
No matter what had happen, life still have to go on. I do believe you can overcome this incident. It is just another new chapter to your life, it will not stop the story to continue on. You will still have a bright future.
thank you all for your thoughts and support...
this injury definately put the brakes on my life right now. initially i found it hard to accept but right now, i guess it's just another chapter in my life...
i just hope this injury does not leave a mental scar...
