Gawai Dayak Eve in Kuching
31st May 2009 (Kuching).
Today we are still in Kuching. 1Family is supposed to go back to Kampong Empaling today but one of our member still not feeling well, so we had decided to postpone our trip to Empaling and stay put in Kuching until 1st June 2009. Our youngest family member has been complaining about stomach ache since Thursday,29th May 2009. Since then until today we had send him to the 3 general practitioners and a specialist. First two general practitoners suspected that he had an appendicitis and reminded us to observe his condition closely, and if his condition worsen , to send him to the hospital immediately.
Waiting for his turn to be called.

On 30th May 2009, his situation did not change so we decided to send him to Kching Specialist Hospital , one of the specialist hospital available in Kuching. He was checked thoroughly, using X-ray and ultra-sound. The doctor diagnosed that he is suffering from stomach-flu and could take few days to recover. And today he is still complaining of stomach ache. We will have to wait for him to recover atleast until his situation improve a bit before we could celebrate our gawai in Empaling.

Gawai Eve, 1200AM. I was already asleep when Marvin woke me up for the Ai Pengayu drinking (directly translated as Long Life wine ). Every family members joined the ocassion except Nicole and Olivero who had already gone to bed. Unlike in the longhouse , our gawai eve this year is one of the simplest gawai eve that we had ever celebrated so far. Very simple without any oooha.. just a sip of tuak and followed by wishing each others the Selamat Ari Gawai or Happay Gawai Dayak wishes. Immediately after drinking the tuak we all went to bed and waiting for Olivero condition to improve.
Leonnard seen sipping his Ai Pengayu..Look at the eyes. He really likes rice wine !
Happy Gawai Dayak ......
