This special post is actually a long overdue post, since i don’t know where to start, so here it goes….

This post will highlighted something special on my daughter, Sekar. She is such a  special baby…she was born with Symbrachydactyly .

According to this link, Babies with symbrachydactyly (sim-BRA-chi-DAK-til-ee) are born with short fingers, which may be webbed, or they are missing fingers. Usually this happens on only 1 hand, and the other hand looks typical.

Some of the finger bones (phalanges, fah-LAN-jeez) may be smaller than is typical, and the fingers may be stiff. In more serious cases, the fingers are missing bones. If the fingers have no bones at all, your baby may have little stumps of skin and soft tissue (nubbins) where the fingers would be.

Most babies with symbrachydactyly have a complete thumb, but sometimes the thumb is short or missing. The long bones that connect the fingers to the wrist (metacarpals) may be short, too. Some babies have a short forearm as well. The muscles, tendons and ligaments in the hand are also affected.

Symbrachydactyly in children

When a baby’s hands begin to form in the womb, they are shaped like mittens or paddles. Then the fingers divide. In babies with symbrachydactyly, the fingers (and sometimes the hand and arm) don’t fully form during this time. This may happen because the area doesn’t get enough blood flow or because of some other problem with the tissue. It’s not caused by anything the mother did or did not do while she was pregnant.

Most children with this condition can use their hands well enough to do all the usual things children do. Even if their smaller hand doesn’t work well on its own, they can use it to assist their other hand.

Symbrachydactyly isn’t common. It happens in about 1 in 32,000 babies. It’s not passed down in families (inherited). If you have a child with symbrachydactyly, you are not at any greater risk of having another child with the condition.

And this is Sekar’s left hand finger

While on Sekar’s it wasn’t detected during pregnancy so it came as a shock for us when she was born.  But it all swept away when we see her peaceful and angelic face, we are so blessed beyond measures to have her,  she is Perfect!

Alhamdulilah selain itu Sekar tumbuh sehat (bahkan sangat sehat), jago banget nyusu-nya and hopefully she will always stay healthy and happy! AMIN..because as a parent these what matters the most 🙂

For now, we just want to watch her grow and enjoying her developmental milestones. While searching  the latest medical technology on Symbrachydactyly is still on to do list 🙂 hopefully one day we are able to reconstructed our lovely daughter’s finger.

AMIN!!

Btw, this is 4 months old  Sekar

woww…feels like a decade since my last post! HAHHAH LEBAY YOU MBAK!

ya iyalah gimana rasanya gak se-dekade coba…terakhir posting status single, eh pas balik balik nulis status udah emak beranak satu hihihihi. mari kita ucapkan ALHAMDULILAHH.

she’s such a doll!! 

61 Dates You Can Take Your Beautiful Self On This Year

1. Search for all the coffee shops in your city or town. At least every two weeks, make a point to visit each of them for a breakfast treat.

7. Go to your favorite restaurant, but instead of getting the same thing you always do, make it a point to order something new each time.

12. Buy cheap tickets to your favorite or local sports teams’ games and go with a bunch of friends or family members.

13. Spend the afternoon at the library, drinking coffee, journaling, and getting lost in a good book.

14. If it’s warm where you live, have a beach day—just you, your headphones, plenty of sunscreen, and of course, snacks. Too cold for all that? Convert your living room to the beach with some tropical music and drinks, and lay, yes down, swimsuit and all. A girl can pretend, right?! (Feel too weird to do that solo? Get your girlfriends and booze! Believe me, it’s silly but fun.)

37. Build a snowman or bury yourself in the sand. (Seriously, when was the last time you did either of those things??)

38. Grab some friends and go dancing like fools at the local bar.

41. Attend a local yoga, Zumba, or some type of workout class you haven’t had the motivation to go to yet.

43. Ask a street musician to play your favorite song and dance with a stranger (or a dog, dogs are cute.)

44. Do something you’re absolutely terrified of completely on your own. (Ex: Touching stingrays, skydiving, going through a haunted house). If you survive, you can share the awesome story! (You totally will.)

45. Get drunk by yourself. (Why not?)

46. Make dinner to-go and find a pretty spot outside to eat.

thank you 2016, you give me a new HELLO!

and it’s all begun with the HELLO

and hello changed everything…..

So i won’t talk the turbulence that happened in 2016, i just want to reminiscing some of great talent in music-movie industry that we’ve lost in 2016.

January 2016

David Bowie

February 2016 

Maurice White (member of Earth Wind and Fire) 

Their ultimate legendary song, definitely is….

April 2016 

Prince 

*It may not his original song, but his interpretation of the song, is one of the best ever!*

December 2016 

Alan Thicke

Ok, he wasn’t a singer, but his son is. But who doesn’t know his character as “Jason Seaver” on Growing Pains. So to cherish his life to reminisc one of the best television series in the 90s, Growing Pains, let’s play this song.

George Michael 

*this song will always be my favorite from Georgie, aside of Club Tropicana by Wham!*

Carrie Fisher 

Irreplaceable actress who played Princess Leia Organa of Alderaan or should we say General Leia Organa. She returns to galaxy far, far away

Oh and we also Lost the Great Muhammad Ali this year

This picture sum up the notable people that we’ve lost 2016

Gatau sih ini lebay aja atau gimana. Tapi ketika sitcom ‘friends’ abis masa tayangnya di tahun 2004, itu menandai selesainya sebuah era. Era anak anak tahun 90-an yang gede barengan sama serial Friends. Tapi ketika How I met Your Mother selesai masa tayangnya, yang juga tayang selama 9 tahun, selesai…gak dianggap sebagai endingnya sebuah era. Mungkin gak se-signifikan friends dan mungkin fans nya kepecah kebagi dua setelah ending HIMYM. Ada yang suka sama endingnya ada yang protes abis-abisan sama endingnya. hahhaha

Nah itu kan serial made in Hollywood semua. Kalau di Asia ada juga serial HALYU alias Korea production punya. Salah satu produksi Halyu yang luar biasa fenomenalnya adalah RUNNING MAN!!

Tau kan???? TAUUUK KAN?????? hahhaha

Menurut gue ini adalah salah satu serial games paling setresss yang pernah dibuat. Setres buat yang nonton sama buat yang mainin apalagiii…yang mainin gamesnya yah mereka lagi-mereka lagi, lucunya, mereka gak trauma sama sekali dan gak pernah berniat mundur juga dari acara ini. Nah baru tahun iniii nih ada masalah, dari si Kang Garry cabut, menyusul Jong Kook sama Jih Yo (satu satuna pemain cewek di acara ini) yang cabut. dan akhirnya diputuskan februari 2017 jadi akhir dari perjalanan Running Man dari tahun 2010.

Running Man abis, juga menandai selesainya era Halyu part 1, plus mungkin barengan sama 2NE1 bubar juga kali yah…jadilah ini dianggep abisnya era 6 tahun kebersmaan dengan Running Man. Generasi haha hihi yang suka bertingkah konyol tapi penuh hiburan. Ok, pasti walau bloon tapi kocak ini, banyak kan yang terinspirasi dari Running Man??? ngakuuuuu!

Gue sih ngaku, banyak terinspirasi kalau bikin games kaya Running Man. hahhaha emang beneran seru games-nya dan team work nya emang jalan. gak kaku ala kakak kakak yang punya outbond lah hahhaha

Episode yang bakalan paling gue kenang itu adalah episode 100, ini epic banget sih…jamannya Olimpiade London dan mereka bergaya ala ala dewa Yunani…frak!! sama episode-episode awal sih….mereka masih kaku masih gobyosss lah

Sedih sih mereka udah mau selesai, mana gue juga sempet nonton mereka pas main di Jakarta. hahhahah. main bola paling gak jelas di seluruh dunia, mungkin keanehan mereka main bola cuma bisa dikalahin sama Nixau! nnanya lagi nih nixau siape??? hadeuhhh

Yah Running Man juga satu -satunya yang gue kejar waktu ke Korea, gue diajak ke Korea tanpa gue tau mau ngapain di Korea, dikasih map Halyu sama adek gue dan ngeliat semuanya ditandain sama spot spot Running Man pernah main disana. Jadilah gue datengin tuh spot spot Running Man, foto aja disana…gak jelas kan!! tapi yah gitu…itu tempat pernah dipake Running Man aja udah, se-simple itu hahhahah

Kurang lebih gitu deh tipikal anak anak yang suka nonton Running Man..hahhaha

Bakalan sedih sih Running Man gak ada lagi, karena kebodohan 7 orang ini gak ada yang bisa nandingin. Sama lah kaya gak bakalan ada yang bisa nandingin legend nya lawakan WARKOP DKI.

man…i’m gonna miss this show and i’m gonna miss laughing my ass off on the floor watching this clowny variety show. Oh and i’m gonna miss all of them

Kwang so, Haha, Jih Yo, Kang Garry, Jong Kook, Jae Suk, Ji Suk Jin

ini buat bacaan lanjutan aja, kali kali ada yang kangen juga sama mereka

I never loved that city this much. Prior to what happened to me now, i’d rather hate that city because always left bad experiences while i was there. 

But this year, when we found each other, suddenly i always want to come back to your city and found you found me. I think i found my city love ❤️❤️❤️

Macettttttttttt! 

Kalau macet udah identik sama Jakarta, sahihhhh!  Sampai berapa generasi gubernur DKI Jakarta yang salah satu fokus utamanya mengurangi macet di Jakarta. 

Berbagai macam peraturan, uji coba cara ini itu, bangun prasarana ini itu, perbaikin kendaraan dan sarana transportasi umum, semua gunanyaaaa untuk mengurangi macet di Jakarta.

Gubernur yang sekarang sih, masih berusaha mengurangi macet, belum signifikan. Tapiiii semua prasarana untuk 5-10 tahun ke depan dalam rangka mengurangi macet sih udah dibangun! Ini yang bikin kita, warga Jakarta sayang Ahok. Karena kerjanya nyata. Tinggal tungguin aja berapa tahun lagi MRT, LRT jadi. Transjakarta juga makin banyak terintegrasi nantinya.

Ok, sambil nunggu berapa tahun di depan itu kejadian, macet macetan gilaaaak masih harus dinikmatin dulu yah ses, brur semuaaaa! 

Apalagi kalau kondisinya habis hujan di sore hari, jumat dan baru gajian! Selamaaaaaatttttt bermacet-macet ria Jakartaaaaaaaa!

Demo! Dari demo masak sampe demo politik! 

Dari sekedar demo kecantikan, demo panci, sampe demo kelas berat dan siaga 1: demo nurunin pemimpin, demo hukum pemimpin, demo koruptor? Sekali sih tahun 98! 

Sekarang, siapa yang mau demo balik yg ngaku pemimpin kegamaan tapi semena mena punya aturan dan kelakuan kaya dia yg punya Negara? Itu…Let God do it. 

Driver taksi curhat mengenai hidupnya, and we don’t know how to react just saying ‘hoo’ and nod your head and smile 🙂

Yakan, kadang sukaaa bingung mau kasih solusi disangkain sotoy, ya didengerin aja. Toh mereka juga cuma pengen didenger, sama kan kaya kita yg lagi punya masalah, cari temen buat cerita sekedar buat tumpahin ‘kekusutan sementara’
