I would like to welcome, Ilon (e-learn) Daniel Iking Azmi to everyone.
On the first day of Raya, we celebrate our MCO Raya with our latest addition to the family, Ilon Daniel! It has got to be the toughest 2 months for me as I share in this video some of the trials and tribulations, right from the time we learn about his existence.
While sharing some stock footage of my journey (will do a proper vlog when I can), I also speak to Farah Putrinegara Bahrom , Clinical Psychologist and Founder/Director at WeCare Allied Health Center. (FB: https://www.facebook.com/farah.putrinegara)
Topic: To abort or not to abort – making difficult choices alone
Some pregnant women are so conflicted about abortion that they don’t even talk about it with their own mother.
Almost half of all pregnancies are unplanned. Between 10-20% of women are still uncertain about whether they should have an abortion when they come in for the procedure.
Some don’t even bring it up with the man they’d become pregnant by.
“Everyone has an opinion about abortion, but for the women who were in this situation, figuring out what was right and wrong proved to be very complex”
I speak to Farah about this.

I would like to thank Dr Navdeep Singh, Dr Khoo, Dr Ling and all the wonderful team from Thomson Hospital Kota Damansara for being so patient, kind and efficient in ensuring my health and baby's health was priority. I felt safe in their hands seeing that it was my 4th (and final) C-sect surgery.
More about my journey as I stay confined at home, this time around in pantang - looking after a newborn ... in my aLIVE streams.
God bless and Selamat Hari Raya. Thanks for tuning in.
