16 May 2024. Orchard Link roadside garden. 10am. Coffee at Toast Box Shaw House with Ms M.

This yellow butterfly typifies the Type "A" personality - the Go-Getter person who works very hard and gets results as evident in his or her high earnings e.g. S$200,000 income per year for the engineering recruitment lady.

This Common Grass Yellow is rarely seen perched on the leaf for more than 3 seconds. It flutters from one flower to another as if it has no time to waste. Hence, it is rare to capture a photo of it sipping honey and permitting me time to squat to its eye level to take a sharp image.

"Type A" personalities are like this butterfly. No time to waste on eating, drinking and sleeping as there is so much to do and so little time to achieve.

A 24-hour day is insufficient. It is best to take time to take care of your health. This includes a Mediterranean type of diet, daily exercise of 5,000 steps of walking and 30 minutes of moderate vigorous activity and sufficient sleep with naps for the older person.

Failure to take care of your health will manifest from your late 40s in getting heart diseases and diabetes. Or looking aged early. 


GO-GETTER - very energetic, determined. Someone who is very energetic, determined to be successful and able to deal with new or difficult situations easily.

5872. HEALTHCARE TIPS: Exercise for a diabetic person.

 13 May 2024:
The Foot Book. Jonathan D Rose, DPM. Vincent J Martorana, DPM.

Prevention.
1. Primary care physician or family doctor.
2. Specialists e.g. endocrinologist, podiatric physician, eye specialist. Ideally, a nutritionist.


Regular visits to ensure strict control of blood sugar levels. take all prescribed medications, eat a healthy diet, refrain from smoking, regular exercise unless instructed not to by a physician. Exercise improves bone and muscle health, promotes circulation and helps stabilise blood sugar levels.   

See your podiatric physician at least once a year for an assessment. A callus or wart can sometimes conceal a more serious problem, such as an abscess.

VET CASE STUDY. TELEHEALTH CONSULTATION. A VOMITING CAT HAS DIFFICULTY IN PEEING.

13 May 2024. To Dr Sing Kong Yuen. WhatsApp 9668-6468, Singapore. 4am.


Hello sir, sorry to disturb in the wee hours of the night, but i would like to enquire about whether toa payoh vets has slots to walk in later in the afternoon. my cat currently has UTI and i might have to bring him in  later


Please phone 6254 3326 at 10am for appointment.


How do you know your cat has uti? Please send a video.


because hes had it 2 times before, its the same symptoms and he is in pain when i slightly apply pressure to his bladder area so i highly suspect its UTI
thanks for replying at this timing though really appreciate it


Can he pee normally?
Was x ray done?
No

cant see much from the video but he is trying to relief pressure from his hind area when he tries to sit or lie down
never done xray before
the previous 2 times it was just the tubing into the tract


What food do you feed?
Brand of food
his diet now mainly is the urinary tract food from royal canin and wet food time to time


Do you feed cat treats?
rarely
maybe once or twice a month
but im not sure whether its still UTI because he has been vomitting and theres dark green sticky stool


What is brand of other dry food you feed, other than Royal Canin?
when the royal canin was on delivery previously we temporarily replaced with snappy tom
but his main diet is still the royal canin one


Have you been feeding snappy Tom for the last 3 weeks?
yes


Why?
is it a bad brand?
cause we have another cat and she mainly eats that with no issues
so sometimes when the other cat is eating he will chase her away and he will eat instead


I will need to check his urine, do blood tests and X-rays if you are okay and explain to you after the tests. Please tell my clinic that you wish to make appointment with me, Dr Sing Kong Yuen.


alright could i get a rough estimation of the cost so i have time to gather the budget. (costs given orally).
 

Hsu, make appointment for me at 11am. Dysuria haematuria for 3rd time in around 1 year and vomiting in a cat. Urine tests, blood test and x rays needed. Tel 9003 2583.
 

sorry not 3rd time in one year
the previous time was more than one year ago
 

sorry. 3rd time now, but the 2nd time was one year ago.

yes.

Good morning. With a good camera and lots of practices, I managed to shoot a reasonably sharp image to illustrate the saying "Is there light at the end of the tunnel?".


An English phrase of light.
an indication that a long period of difficulty is nearing an end.
"it had been a hard struggle but I could see a glimmer of light at the end of the tunnel"

PHOTOGRAPHY TIPS OF COSPLAYERS IN XI'AN. Use shutter priority.

Cosplayers in Xi'An are tourists. Families and children dress up in costumes of past royalties, have make-up and hairstyling and photography. A memorable cultural experience for children. Cosplayers are seen daily in tourist areas of Xi'An and the locals earn a living from this aspect of life. In Singapore, cosplayers are rare birds!

5865. VET CASE STUDY. A 25-month-old dwarf hamster cannot walk normally.

WhatsApp to Toa Payoh Vets.



Hi, is this TPY vet? My hamster is not walking stably, but still eating, drinking, alert and doesn’t seem to be in pain. Is there anything that can be done for him if I bring him down? He’s 2Y1M old.
Thank you ?￰゚マᄐ


Hamster needs to be examined by the vet. Please phone 6254 3326 for appointment.

5864. VET CASE STUDY. A Pomeranian cannot stand up or walk normally. Why?

1.  From "inco-ordination"  complaint from VET 1, it sounded serious, like internal injuries and fractures. 

2. VET 2.
Physical examination
 

3.  Need to use additional testings
Lab tests
X-rays

4. Days passed by. Not eating. X-rays showed gas, empty stomach and intestines.
X-rays poor quality.

5. Maid said no fall or traumatic injuries. But not possible to take her word for it.  Serious pain.

6. Do another physical examination after pain-killer given for past 2 days. Videoed. Left hip area very painful.

7. Take proper X-rays.  Problem seen at left pelvic bone (arrows).

8. This was the cause of "incoordination" and inability to walk normally.





 

 

 



5863. PHOTOGRAPHY TIPS: Shoot traffic light trails.

 PHOTOGRAPHY TIPS:  Shoot traffic light trails.
www.digitalcameraworld.com

 

1. Use long exposure.
2. Safe location e.g. sanding next to a busy junction conrolled by traffic lights, a slip road or roundabout.
3. Slow shutter speed, tripod, cable release.
 

4. Shoot in Manual, can adjust shutter speed and aperture, check histogram for each exposure.
Try 10 seconds as starting point.
Narrow aperture to get starburst effects on street lights and increase the depth of field for sharpness.
 
 

5. Use MANUAL FOCUS because autofocus will struggle in low light and get distracted. Focus on something significant in the background: zoom in with Live View to check sharpness.  

6. SET YOUR ISO.  Keep ISO LOW to reduce noise. turn on LONG EXPOSURE NOISE REDUCTION in menu.
