這兩天天氣非常悶熱，在街上如像走進焗爐似的，氣溫多達36度，因為颱風今日就快到了 。收到威院電話，告知安排下星期一動手術，須要本星期五入院與痳醉師見面及傾討有關手術的所知，作手術前準備。雖然這是一項大手術，反而沒有多大的驚恐，比起上年知道要做電療及化療的心境還是比較平靜。與他人談及此事都是用一個平常心對待及表達，因為我深信經過這手術後，我便可與這個病道別了。

下午掛著三號風球至4時多知悉於6時前會轉掛8號，所以大家都準備收拾趕快回家。5時前辦公室也人去樓空了。

The weather of these two days were very hot and windless, the degree rised to 36 degrees.  Because there was a typhoon coming.  Received call from PWH that they arrange me for the operation next Monday and I should go to hospital coming Friday to meet the anaesthesist and be informed the procedure of the operation, so as for any preparation before that.  Although this is a big operation, I was not scared.  I felt more calm than comparing with last year when radiotheraphy and chemotheraphy. When I talked with other about this, I was very pleased to tell them I would be brave to face it.  As far as I believe deeply that after the operation next week, the illness will  never come with me.

The typhoon no.3 is hanging until later afternoon. After we noted that No.8 will hang up before 6:00 pm, my colleagues pack up the work and ready to leave. Before 5:00 pm, all of us left the office.
