Hello from Singapore
by Dr. Hsien-Hsien Lei
Posted July 26, 2008 in DNA in General
Yes, I’m still alive but barely. I’ve given birth to a baby girl and moved from London, UK to Singapore all in six weeks. Been keeping one eye on DNA during this time but can’t say my brain was processing much. Hope to be back in the game next month. Meanwhile, keep calm and carry on!

Wow! That’s impressive, I don’t think I’d be able to handle it well! Get some rest!
It’s impressive to me, too, Hsein! Yes, please do enjoy some rest, what youcan get! Blessings, Olivia
I felt overwhelmed just moving 20 miles. If I were in your shoes I’d probably be a wreck. Have a nice rest and enjoy your time with Megan!
Amazing! Thanks for checking in. I literally just got the ” keep calm and carry on” poster in the mail yesterday. Its over our kitchen table - in our new place where we just moved to with a 4 and 3 year old. Its our family motto these days…

That’s great news! Hope Mom and baby are doing well. When you get a chance, pop by and let me know how you like my new template.
Hope you’re still having fun in Singapore and keeping up with those bairns of yours.
By the way, you promised to be back on the Eye this month…time’s running out
Meanwhile, did you hear Boris Johnson waxing lyrical about our genes on BBC’s Who Do You Think You Are? I gave him a mention on Sciencebase just for the record, quite profound…considering…
Congrats!
Can’t wait till you are back in the game!
Congratulations! Enjoy the time with the little one
