No more ciggies..

That country bumpkin has FINALLY returned to Indonesia (she's only entitled to a week's visa a month). I can now breathe a little more easier..

I think i've also discovered a way to help my dad forget about cigarettes. He knows that he has to give them up but these days, he feels that he needs them to help him sleep at night as he has difficulty sleeping at the hospital.

Thankfully, he has started on his physiotherapy and that tires him out. But unfortunately, he takes afternoon lunchtime naps. So i what do is push him (in his wheelchair) around the hospital grounds after dinner at 6pm and play scrabble with him until his eyes feel heavy and he cannot concentrate anymore. Then, after taking his sleeping pill at 10pm, he knocks out immediately. Before, even with 2 pills, he would not be able to sleep.

Hopefully, he will be able to fall asleep without the pills soon..
