Whole Body Check Up And Glimpses Of Recent Visit To Faisal Mosque

 

Hey precious friends ❤️

Hope and pray having blessed days by the grace of God!

Me and two of my sons (eldest and youngest) are enjoying our last few days here in capital city Islamabad. As day of my eldest son’s coming closer my heart feels heavier though I am trying my best to no dwell on this feeling longer. Eldest son is doing his best to keep us accompanied as well! Before hubby left for our khairpur home eldest son took both of us (hubby and me) to Shifa international hospital for our whole body check up . He was concerned about our health and wanted to make sure that everything is going well within our bodies. His such attempt seemed made us little anxious before honestly because concept of full body check up is something people hardly think about here. I n

Know it may sound bit ignorant but such ideas will take sometime to establish in fundamental thought pattern of our society. As far as I know even wealthy people go through such tests only when things get quite serious. But once we both were convinced that it is important further became easy. Our son would drop us at hospital everyday for three days where with an agent provided by hospital management would lead us to various departments for tests. Procedures would take more than four hours everyday. At third day we were taken to a dietitian who on the basis of few present results advised us further regarding our diet. The dietitian doctor was a Turkish woman of my age almost. She was married to a Pakistani man who I assumed was doctor as well. She had really friendly nature which made it easy to speak in English with her (rarest experience for me here) .She gave me her card when we left. I felt quite happy about meeting with her. We will collect our due test results on Monday morning hopefully. Overall Our reports came clean until now which makes us our son specially quite happy and grateful! One thing that made me feel good is that while visiting al different doctors I noticed their appreciation for my habit to exercise and meditate. The last doctor who consulted us on the basis of present results admired this habit and said it has hold back many serious issues which could have arisen and overtaken my body otherwise. I really felt blessed and peaceful from within after what she had acknowledged! Such things are alien to my surroundings and people otherwise :( it is not easy to adopt habits that aren’t familiar to people around actually so it was special feeling honestly!

Sharing few glimpse of hospital pathways as abundance of delightful flowers would make me stop there❤️

And some photos from our today’s visit to Faisal Mosque.Hope you will enjoy. Me and both of my sons had really nice time there even though Faisal Mosque was fully packed with visitors. We had delicious lunch at Bundu Khan Restaurant Centaurus Mall. Later eldest son took us for long drive as well. So we just returned from the excursion and wanted to share my joy with you all 🥰


                      Missed hubby and younger son meanwhile badly! Taken in hospital Shifa international 


Really huge hospital 

                                            Pathways are laced with dazzling flowers 






             We arrived at daytime (2 :45) .but visitors flooded after 3pm and it was too crowded to walk freely soon.still we took walks,sat here and there for while,took some photos,(mostly by son’s phone) sharing which I had captured only.

                                           I had to wait for people to get side before clicking 


My eldest son was so happy to have sunny weather so far as in London he finds such days rarely 


        These are most precious moments for me as mother and I am greatly aware of this!!!! Still hope he will be able to visit us every year !


    I loved this one enough to set as walls on my new phone Lock Screen, at second screen I set a family picture taken recently. Since hubby has new iPhone now.he has given me his almost new Samsung phone 😊 

Heartfelt thanks for being with me dear friends. Your support is my strength!
See you soon. Health Peace and Happiness to you all and to all you love ❤️

Priceless Times Together ❤️

Hey precious friends 

Hope and pray all is good with you and yours!

We are still staying in Airbnb in Islamabad with our eldest son. Hubby has joined us on Friday 10th of January. Our younger son has took Ten  days off from his university so he had to leave for Karachi on Sunday 12th of the Journey so I could have my complete family hardly for two days for which I am thankful to God for treasured moments! Younger son went through an new exciting experience because eldest son booked seat in flight from  islamabad to Karachi for him 😍


Eldest son wanted his younger brother to reach inexhaustible  ,younger shared this photo from airport 

      We visited Lake View Park today.eldest son dropped us there on his rented car though he returned due to urgent piece of work.

                          We took few pictures with him before he left to treasure the moment 

     It was beautiful and bright winter day ,despite the daytime park had visitors abundantly ,breezy delightful day made everyone feel happy!

Q

Quick shots were taken as calls were coming for our son, sun light was making hard to open eyes properly 

    All the images were taken by hubby’s new apple iPhone.hubby seemed quite happy with the results 😍


    We truly enjoyed this winter visit in park ,lot more than summer visit when heat steals most of the excitement and we feel thirsty and exhausted early 

     Below some cozy and tranquil glimpse of the park , add the sweet and soothing voice of one musical instrument played by some very nice artist which enhanced the comfort and beauty of the surroundings!
I sent some money through my youngest son for artist as token of appreciation. My son recorded him playing for five minutes which I could not share here sadly.





Below are few highlights of our family visit to former hilltop restaurant Monal . 

We did not know that such an exceptionally famous restaurant has been demolished for some reason.Despite we felt shocked at first,soon we were busy in fun chat and talking photos 😊


                    I love these pictures most as three of my children are present here together 🥰


Our eldest son surprised us with his amazing driving skills,he drove us up to the hills quite high and we had such a great time during this magical and beautiful long drive. Lots of joyous moments were captured meanwhile ❤️
     
              After having spent few hours up on hills our children chose a fine hotel for dinner 

     Although we selected rooftop sitting area.the heaters were placed close to each table which kept us warm while we waited for the meal . Food was really good thankfully and harmless as well as we noticed no side effects at all later by the Grace of God! We spent some really memorable hours together that day ❤️

                                               Lake view park. Boats shots  taken by me 



That is all for now friends.
Health Peace and Happiness to all of you and to all you love!!!

Hello Sweet Hearts!

First of all big thanks for your kind comments on my previous post. Your words enlighten my heart always!

I am thankful for your support and encouragement from the bottom of my heart.

My son actually forgot to give me another lovely gift sent by Gabi’s mom Sue.It is a gorgeous tea towel and a hand written beautiful card❤️

Sharing the photos below.Sue is incredibly sweet person!🥹

My eldest son told that when Sue learned I was diagnosed with osteoporosis she went into quite deep studies and found out that may be I can find some latest treatment in one or few leading hospitals here in Islamabad.My son said he will take me to them soon when hubby arrives hopefully. After learning about my disease Sue actually had asked me to share my doctor’s prescription with her via email. I didn’t know she was willing to dig about the matter seriously. She is Gem 🥰.Heartfelt thank you my incredibly sweet friend Sue! You are truly Special!

Life is indeed full of surprises sometimes.Only some days ago I hardly had any idea that I will be receiving such lovely surprises and gifts from Gabi or Sue. It melts my heart with gratitude and joy that God has brought us many miracles throughout my life.Family of my eldest son’s girlfriend seems one of them to me 🥹Such warm and loving people ❤️ I wonder if mere a word thanks is enough for their generosity!!!

         
When I unwrapped this stunning tea towel warmth of Sue’s gift touched my heart deeply!
 
 It seems more than just tea towel and appears as a spectacular painting at first sight! When I showed it to hubby on video call he liked it a lot and said he will have it framed for me 😍



 
This vintage card is crafted so artistically and makes one feel calm and cozy 😌

That is all for now dear friends.

Joys !

Hey Lovely souls!

Hope all is good with you all by the grace of God!

Our eldest son arrived today morning where we are staying at Airbnb.
It was very special moment for us as we met him after two long years.Missed hubby badly who couldn’t come along due office.He will join us soon though inshallah!

Although my son wanted to spend time with us I sent him to rest right after breakfast .He had meeting with an old school friend who is flying to Abu Dhabi tonight so they got few hours to meet after quite a long time. My son is gone to meet his friend and I thought I should give a quick post meanwhile and share my joy with my friends:)

My eldest son brought me a brand new iPad and and iPhone 16 to his father. Hubby will take leave from office and join us in a week hopefully and I am sure he will be excited with this surprise. I was really happily surprised to see this iPad gift as it will reconnect me with my blogger family once again:)


I now don’t have to wait for specific time to do blog visits!
Special thanks to my younger son who made me familiar with device so quickly and resolved some issues which made this post happen. 

But guess what A bigger and most delightful and uplifting surprise was something else ? To find out answer please look at the sunflower image carefully. Yes it is a beautiful handkerchief made by Gabi 😍🥰🥹. My son told Gabi did not know embroidery but she learned that during holidays and created this lovely flower family for me :))) Isn’t it amazing and so pretty??? Her gift made me emotional and with teary eyes I said my son I believe your gift slips to second position after this one!!! I am so happy and grateful that Such a sweet girl like Gabi is my son’s girlfriend. She has such a generous heart and thoughtful soul! 

Love you dear Gabi ❤️for this precious gift.Hubby said he will have it framed for me:)❤️
Okay dear friends my son has returned.see if you in a while sooon. Blessings to you all ❤️
