Yik How was discharged yesterday! His platelets count went back up to 100+ so the doctor was satisfied and let him off! The doctors still do not know what was the cause behind the drop in platelets but according to Kah Wei, it's an idiopathic disease.
The word comes from Greek, idios meaning one's own and pathos, suffering. The term is used for diseases which arise spontaneously from an unknown cause. Something caused the platelets in Yik How to go low but whatever did what it did is unknown. Shuen says the doctors came up with idiopathic because, they felt like an idiot and pathetic for not knowing the cause of the disease.
Anyhow, regardless of history, let's just be thankful that Yik How is alright again and thank God for His mercy.
Please do pray for Joel. Uncle Rodney messaged saying he fractured his ring finger in school yesterday. Pray that he may be able to recover properly and be healed!
