Get bitter or better?

Dear friends, The past few days have been a hectic yet exciting days. Papo has been improving so fast, friends who haven't seen him during the new years holiday came back with a shock, as they witnessed he is able to speak more in sentences and communicate with them. After the tracheotomy removed 3 days ago, he is now speaking with more clarity than prior to the removal. . He is able to convey his heart, and the amazing thing today is my husband cried, with tears flowing from his eyes continuously, for almost half and hour when a close friend visited. I never seen him cried and saying "today I cried a lot" few times ....but we sense this is a great release for him, for his fears and burdens has been trapped in for 5 months, and once he is able to speak God gives him chance to release all these tensions in his heart through crying. We told him it is OK for a man to cry, it is healthy in his case.  He profusely saying "thank you for praying for me" , &quo

A day filled with cocktail

Dear friends, This is my second posting for the blog.  I am still considering if I should upload pictures on this blog....confidentiality issues and bad internet connection problems are the major factors for doing so.  Believe it or not the internet connection in Surabaya, the second largest city of Indonesia, is still very "lemot" (translation: very  slow). Back to Papo updates (from the wife's perspective of course). It is a great Sunday for me, for I was greeted with "I love you" by my hubby when I said "good morning" when I met him in his room downstair. We chatted for a while, and he said "You are a wonderful wife", that was definetely a pleasant surprise, as I replied "You are a wonderful husband too". But  he continued with saying "sorry....sorry...sorry", when I heard this (actully it's more like reading it from his lips, for he has no clear voice yet) I can't hold my tears.... I

The day I started blogging.....

Dear friends, Since the accident, and our stay in Singapore during his critical moments for almost 3 months, many friends have been egging me to start a blog about what happened to us. Finally I have started a blog :) A concept which is so far from my mind about 5 months ago. But now, with the help of my dear friend KC Laksmono (who is also trying to revive her blog), I am starting to learn what blogging is all about. I still have so many things to learn, so please bear with me :) My life was "crushed" on the 19th August 2012, when my husband got traumatic brain injury (TBI) on a church mission trip to Central Kalimantan. The chronology of the accident I can not described in person for I was not there nor I think it is beneficial for us to re-enact the tragedy in our heads. I determined to just accept the fact that my husband, Peodji Hariono, who is the executive pastor of International Christian Assembly (ICA), an English speaking church in Surabaya, is now recupe
