My Life: NKF Health Screening and Talk

On the 23th of November 2011, Pangkor Hall Committee had organised a NKF Health Screening and Talk. The Health Screening was held at SA, 1st Floor while the talk was held at F1A24. The crew from National Kidney Foundation(NKF) came to my uni to conduct this event. The event was very successful as it attracted more than 100 participants. This event was fully sponsored by Pangkor Hall Committee, and it was free for all on-campus residents and staff. Meanwhile, donation for NKF was held, to collect fund for their event, you can choose to donate or not. The screening included blood pressure test, BMI, random blood glucose and cholesterol test, urine test and free counseling. All of it can be done within 20 minutes. Here are some picture from the event :

In the evening, there was a Health Talk entitled Organ Donation: A Gift of Life, held at F1A24. The talk contents were Organ Donation in Malaysia, Type of Organ Donor, Tissue Donation and etc. The speaker was Mdm Annie Cheong from NKF. She is a very enthusiasm worker, she keep sharing the importance of health and organ donation to all of us. One of the golden sentence was "Your parents will proud of you, if you had died, even though they can't see you but at least they will know that your organ still alive, alive on others body." From her, I saw the enthusiasm and attitude of a worker toward her job that she shows how she love her job. I hope that I can be that enthusiasm toward my job after graduation and even in the old age stage. However, back to the organ donation issue, I just haven't prepared to do that decision, to become a donor, maybe years later.
