NKF Visit To Marina Barrage

National Kidney Foundation (Singapore) organised a trip to Marina Barrage for all its patients and their family members. This events was held on Sunday 28 March 2009. This trip was organised to strengthen the relationship between the patients, family members and the organisation staff. It was a lovely trip as it was shinny day and everyone was enjoying themselves.



The trip was given its fullest supports with the attendance of nearly 600 peoples including its patients, family members, the staffs and its volunteers.

The event was started with a 15 minutes of light exercises. and a small briefing.

Exactly at 9.30, the long walk around the barrage started. Its takes about half an hour to reach the end of the barrage.

Hmmm, I was unfortunate, was not even to start the walk, as I felt giddy. Straightaway, my wife informed the medical team of my condition. I was given a chair to sit on and my blood pressure and my sugar glucose level was taken. The reading was (b/p) 94/62 with pulse rate of 87 and my (bsl) was 18.4. This indicates I was having a low blood pressure. I was advisesd to rest and not to participate in the walk. I was given sweet drinks as its can rise up my blood pressure. Though sad not to participate, my kids still enjoys themselves.
