Today dad and I travel all the way from LK to Mackay Hospital in Tamsui by bus and by MRT. I told him to leave first because I wanted to do some exercise and other works. I got to the hospital and asked the information lady (not the receptionist) about where was my dad and she gave me the floor, the ward, and the room number. I went directly to the ward only to be told that he has not been admitted yet. Andres was waiting for me at the Registration Center of the other building. I did the QR code, filled out the online registration, and got my Patient's Companion Card, then I went for a walk to get my steps (I wanted to get about 15000 steps everyday to lose weight). I came back and got some food for dad then I headed back to LK.

 020421 I had to go to the Carrefour of Tian Mu where I worked for two days as janitor/cleaner, to fill out some paperwork so  they could pay me my wage. On the way to the megastore I saw the bus for blood donation, so an idea occurred to me: why not? I have always wanted to donate my vital liquid but after my last experience in Panama, which was traumatic, I put it to the back of my mind. The problem is that I have this kind of weird vein,  I think they called it "rolling vein", and the technician/nurse at CSS of Transistmica sucked at finding it. I remembered when I was in CSS I could not fill the bag after half an hour of "working hard" and the blood coagulated so it was all wasted. The worse thing was that when they removed the needle they did not do it right so my blood pressure changed suddenly, and I became dizzy and fainted. The docs had to come and rescue me by lifting my legs above my head. To put it simply: it was a horrible experience at CSS, yes the one...

So I woke up early in the morning trying to make sure I 'd get to the airport on time. I had the plan few days ago to ride the U-bike to the metro station of LK and then take the train to the airport. So I woke up around six and took a bus and the bus took me to the metro MRT. Things were going fine so far, and I was so excited because very soon I will be able to see my beloved wife and son. I am struggling to teach myself, which one I should love more: Ruth or Josiah? The Bible says that I should be united with my wife as one flesh.  So I got to the airport and the people at the check- in said that I am not allowed to go to Canada because they have a lock-down. I was like, what?! I tried to talk to them, asking them to change my flight, telling them to pull up their pants and find me a solution. They were like: deal with it yourself. I talked to the supervisor, the guy said that: we could send you to SFO then you are on your own. I was able to change my route buy using United APP ...

I am going to finish yesterday's post. I got to PTY and went through the customer quite fast. They saw my Covid exam paper and let me through without asking me a question. I went out the airport and took a bus to the nearest Metro station, I think the one of Corredor Sur. I rode the train to NVO Tocumen and got picked up by mom, Ruth, my sister and yes, Josiah! I much I longed to hug him and tell him I loved him. I don't know if it is biblically appropriate to say he is the apple of my eyes. I love him with all my heart. It troubles me a little when I have to think about leaving my family behind to go to TW to take care of my father. Donating my liver to a person who had chosen to live with a lifestyle that was harmful to himself and his family. He pretty much destroyed his family because of his bad decision. Now I am trying to clean up his mess and I have to pay a high price to do it. I don't want to say this because it makes me sound like  a wimp, but it's totally unc...
