Hong Kong Trip — May 16-31, 2024
Stay at Alva Hotel by Royal, near Shatin City One

CHAOS: A rush & emergency trip to Hong Kong — my dad was very sick and he stayed at the Prince Wales Hospital according to my dad’s female friend called me and said, “the doctor said that he had a stroke and he is in a serious critical situation.” So I started to search air tickets to HK right after getting off the phone with her. Thanks God that I got air tickets to HK the next day. I was confused and worried about my dad’s urgent situation. I was afraid of not being able to see my dad the very last time.

GOT TO HONG KONG on May 16 @9:00 a.m. My wife and I saw 六舅父，六舅母 at the airport. I feel a little released when I saw them. They always help us and love us. We left the airport terminal and walked to the bus terminal. We tried to find out the bus route A41that we could take to go to the hotel (Alva). This bus route has a stop at the entrance of the hotel (there is also a 7-Eleven there as well, so convenient). After we checked in and settled down, we started walking to the PWH (approx. 15-20 minutes in a distance). However, it took us a very long time walking, I got lost and felt confused (because of jet lagging after the long flight, I could not be able to sleep on the plane). Finally, we got there after almost an hour or so.

THE DARKEST HOURS are approaching… when I saw my dad’s situation. He was lying on the bed with tubes coming out from his nose. Fortunately, he saw me and recognized us. On May 20, my dad passed away at night when I came to the hospital to visit him. May My Lord takes my dad and brings him to unite with my mom, my uncle and my grand parents and other relatives in heaven.

Thank you God for giving me this artistic talent. May Your Name be glorified in these pages.
