Update on Antares

My dear friend and fellow ecowarrior, Antares (magickriver.blogspot.com) has been battling severe Malaria for the last 4 days. He's currently in ICU and today has started to show signs of improvement.  He's already off dialysis and the doctors are starting to try and wean him off the ventilator.  It's amazing how many people have been sending love, healing energies and prayers his way and I'm sure that they are really having a positive effect.  So thanks to all and keep it coming.  

I know many of his PR blogger buddies are dying to go chat with him and update him on the machinations of the evil empire but because he's still fully sedated (unconscious) and is still very vulnerable to any small disease or infection, visiting has been restricted to immediate family only until he's out of ICU and back on the ward.

Until this happened I hadn't realised how many nutters and sickos there are out there waiting to get into the limelight... these people seem to relish other people's misfortune and sadness and I pity them.  Last night an anonymous person using the name Sister Stella announced Antares' death on the zorro unmasked blog. Although I knew it wasn't true it really upset me and I spent the rest of the night trying to figure out what possible pleasure or gain anyone could get from deliberately causing distress to Antares' family and true friends. 

Then there are the well-meaning but totally misguided people who were insisting he should be given this or that wonder medicine and then being abusive to his family when they politely declined.  One couple even forced their way into a family briefing with the doctor and then were rude to his family.  I mean really, what planet are these people from I wonder? Maybe the same planet as all the other misguided folk who continue to support this corrupt government and those that have lost their connection with mother earth and are destroying the environment for personal gain.  I wish they'd all balik kampung.

In the meantime I'll put out an update on Antares everyday until he's out of ICU and you can also check for updates from his daughters, Belle and Moon on Antares' Facebook wall.  To all those weirdos who love to wallow in others misfortune and tragedy, may you wake up and rejoin the human race.

I m very upset w the severe distortion of the facts...Then there are the well-meaning but totally misguided people who were insisting he should be given this or that wonder medicine and then being abusive to his family when they politely declined. One couple even forced their way into a family briefing with the doctor and then were rude to his family.(I was invited by the Doctor!,because I was once a goverment doctor in that hospital!? my husband did not attend because they were rude esp the husband's of Moonlake?) I mean really, what planet are these people from I wonder?(B careful of your mouth!) Maybe the same planet as all the other misguided folk who continue to support this corrupt government(hello!! r u allowed to vote in this country n did you get the REAL info? n taken the trouble to varify the facts before making your infantile comments?) and those that have lost their connection with mother earth and are destroying the environment for personal gain. I wish they'd all balik kampung.( i think u probably the one that should go back where you belong!)

Antares' family was not around the clock at the ICU. They only monitor by remote control, in stead of taking turns to monitor his medical condition in situ.

My wife Dr. Kamsiah and I know both Antares and his wife, Anura very well. In fact, a few weeks ago, we visited them at their modest home in Magick River, Pertak. We also know Antares, maybe longer than MoonLake's husband.

Anura lis ike a young sister to me. Of course, she is not sophisticated like MoonLake's arrogant Singaporean dentist. Despite her status as orang asli, she must be respected and is entitled to be briefed on the state of her husband's medical condition in simple language. She deserves all the comfort and attention as she loves and depends a lot on Antares. That was why Dr. Kamsiah and I were there....
Mary Maguire distorted the facts. I wonder what is her agenda? To make my wife and I look like intruders?

Belle said...

Dr. kamsiah & Din - before you continue your defensive rantings and rage do stop for a moment and ask yourselves if what you are doing is truly serving my Dad's best interests for healing? Do you seriously think my Dad would take pleasure in knowing that you are attacking his own family (Mary is part of the family too and he's known her longer than any one of his friends). So pls reserve your ego-fuelled attacks and focus on my Dad's healing, maybe when everything has subsided and my Dad is back on his feet we can all laugh over this ridiculous exchange... right now my priority is to send him as much love as possible. BTW, it's Mary's birthday today - I suggest you be nice to her cos she's an amazing woman who's seen my Dad through many tough times!!!!!

Will all you a@*$holes leave your egos outside the door and allow Kit and his family some respect and peace at this critical point in time? This is the least Kit can ask from all of you. Stop all these public spat and ego bashing immediately for the sake of Kit and his family. I believe everyone wants Kit to get well soon but this ain't gonna help him. Thank you.

Dear Belle,
It is notabout our egos and rantings. We were prepared what happened that day when we visited the Sungei Buloh Hospital to see your Dad and our good friend go by with any fuss. We were happy to let the incident pass without notice until a certain Ms Mary Maguire made some remarks that were uncalled for and impolite bringing into the picture politics.
It is obvious to me that she has been wrongly informed of what had happened during the private briefing by the doctor who invited us to join in. I did not come into the room because I respected the wishes of Moonlake's husband (although he was rude in his comments).

We rushed to the hospital upon hearing that Antares was admitted to the ICU unit to ascertain the true nature of his illness. We also informed some of his other friends who also went there when none of the family members were absent.

We too have been there at odd hours a number of time, especially hearing rumours by a certain Sister Stella of his demise.

I expect Mary and you to apologise for misreporting on what happened in the briefing room. We wish Antarez a speedy recovery. He is fortunate to be in good and caring hands of the ICU doctors and staff at Sungei Buloh Hospital. People who visited your dad exposed themselves to the risk of infection from the hospital itself

Dear Mary,

Thank you for your updates on Antares. I have been truly upset to find out he was so ill, and coming by here to see how he's doing has meant so much to me.

I look forward to hearing that my dear friend is on his feet soon.

Thanks, again.

I feel sorry for our dear warrior, Antares.

I think most people have been channeling love and care to him, and we have these 2 bitches Mary and Belle spoiling all of it.

Both of you are such arrogant and uncouth human beings! How can you talk about channeling healing energies when both of you are embodiments of BAD ENERGIES yourself?

Antares,welove; Marry and Belle,we dont! REALLY, what planet did these 2 bitches come from???

BERAMBUS LAH!!!

Well I have known Antares for 35 years and his family and I know that Moon and Belle are wonderful daughters and that Moon's husband would have nothing but concern and love in his heart. Let's just thank God that Antares is on the mend and be thankful that he does have a caring family.

Antares said...

Oh dear... being in a coma is a very weird trip... but coming out of it to hear that family and friends have been bickering saddens me... but I interpret it as signs of human beings under duress misunderstanding each other and shall leave it at that! Mary Maguire and my daughter Belle are DEFINITELY NOT "bitches" but both are very STRONG women - and I love them very much for their strength and their dedication to making sure I came out of this medical crisis intact and whole. Bless you all.
