What is Silver Hair Club anniversary mean to me

Here is an article I wrote about the SilverHairsClub as a journalist:

The SilverHairsClub: A Social Platform for Singaporeans Over 45

Singapore is known for its fast-paced and competitive society, where people often work long hours and have little time for leisure and socializing. However, there is a group of Singaporeans who are not willing to let their age or busy schedules stop them from having fun and making friends. They are the members of the SilverHairsClub, a social club for Singaporeans and PRs over 45 years old.

The SilverHairsClub was established in October 2005 by a fairy godmother who wanted to create a platform for people in her age group to meet new and more friends, share experiences and interests, and participate in various activities and events. The club is free to join and has a strict policy of no politics, religion, sex, race, direct selling & MLM. The club has more than 25 employees who help to run the club’s operations and ensure its smooth functioning.

The club has a website and a Facebook group where members can find information, updates, and announcements about the club and its activities. The club organizes monthly gatherings at different venues where members can socialize, network, and have fun. The gatherings usually have a theme or a topic of interest. For example, the September monthly gathering will be held at Big Appetite, a restaurant at Suntec City that offers a wide choice of food and seating space.

The club also organizes trips and tours to various destinations, both local and overseas. Some of the recent trips include Melaka, Kukup, JB, Penang, Ipoh, and Bangkok. The trips are designed to cater to different preferences and budgets of the members. For instance, the 3D2N Melaka, Kukup & JB shopping tour costs S$268 per person for twin sharing and includes Nonya lunch, BBQ dinner, porridge supper, sky lanterns, fireworks, fish spa, games, mahjong, karaoke, coconut milk shake, snacks, and shopping.

The club has a forum where members can post their introduction, feedback, suggestions, or queries. The forum also has categories for different topics such as travel, hobbies, health, finance, etc. The forum is a place where members can interact with each other and exchange ideas and opinions. The forum also serves as a channel for members to voice their concerns or complaints if they encounter any issues or problems with the club or its activities.

The club is always open to new members who share its vision and values. The club welcomes anyone who is over 45 years old and is a Singaporean or PR to join the club and enjoy its benefits. The club aims to provide a friendly and supportive environment for its members to enrich their lives and have fun.

If you are interested in joining the SilverHairsClub or learning more about it, you can visit their website or Facebook group. Alternatively, you can contact Terence Seah, the fairy godmother’s assistant, for more information.

An investigation

Hi SHC members,

An investigation is currently underway. This involves threats and violence, and police report.

If the final conclusion is valid and true, the member involved will be dismissed and exited from the club.

All club members will be informed, and will be asked to exit from all activites and groups, organised by the investigated person.

This is a serious issue, and SHC cannot tolerate any such occurence and threats.

Fairy God mother has been been alerted. She sound grouchy.

If you have feedback or complaint, plse type FEEDBACK or complaint. You can be sure it will remain P&C.

Event Cordinator for EC events

In the early days of SHC, we had EC events. As we move on with the club, we still require all SHC events to be EO events only.

However this requirement has become not practical for many events.

Today, SHC Admin, Dolly Lim, also a pioneer since 2005, proposed allowing for EC events . I shall review this and revert with a position in a weeks time.

1. SHC EO events can only be participated by Ordinary members.

2. EC events are organised by members, and partially participated by friends of members.

3. , SHC members, ECs, may publish their photos or videos in SHC Forum or Facebook.

Only mames, groups and photos of Ordinary members can be published in the forum.

4. We will not support anti SHC activities..

5. In doubt, consult the SHC admin Dolly Lim or Sally. Foo or myself.

For SHC Facement, approval can be given by Facebook admin Jean Lim. Facebook is more free for EC events

Surviving SpinalAVM in Singapore!

Growing up in sunny Singapore in the Katong School by the Sea, I’m a free-spirited Patrician born in the post independence era. Life’s been pretty good to me despite the usual twists & turns for most part in the first 54 years of my existence.

After returning from Cambodia, my last teaching stint in SCIA as a pioneering Gr 1-9 faculty, I started experiencing difficulty in my bladder & bowel; & walking became a laborious task even as I strive to work in HopeHouse with the De Lasalle Brothers of St Patrick’s Community where I was nurtured.

It was a scary, dark phase and it did occur to me to make my alma mater my resting ground. Yet the love for my family & friends kept me going. In early Feb 2020, I lost all confidence in walking safely and sought out my eldest to bring me for a lumbar x-ray ordered by my endocrinologist.

I am fortunate he was in office early and I got to see him. Thus began my metamorphosis into a SpinalAVM Warrior @55, joining a 1% in the world with this very rare genetic and crippling condition.

A battery of major medical tests culminated in a T4-7 opened surgery to dissect 3 AVMs out. Took 20 months of physiotherapy amidst channeling on the Healthcare Conveyor belt of SGH (5weeks), OCH (5weeks) & a Chinatown Care Home (2.5 years) before I was discharged in untidy manner home with my walker, wheelies and my scooter!

It was a major psychological, physical & financial battle (on-going), to reintegrate back into the Land of the Living, after a 3 year absence from family, Church and society in Kg Glam where we’ve resided for 33 years!

Sheer grit, silent contemplations & patient love became my mainstay even as I continue to be stronger & better with the help of pain meds, mindfulness methods, acupuncture, continued rehab twice weekly and even weekly chiropractic treatment session, managing family, mobility, bladder & bowel as well as chronic fibromyalgia issues.

The alternative option would have been an easy return to a nursing home, have assisted living and fade away. Such is not for me! I have much to do, to surmount the living environment for wheelies, to regain respect & dignity even as a PwD and live life meaningfully with dreams of travel, a SpinalAVM Foundation to assist fellow warriors & their families to alleviate life’s pains a little and live to a 100! I’m on my way!
