last wednesday, i had a lecture about gastritis...
one of the common cause of inflammation of the stomach is an infection by a gram negative microaerophilic bacterium called H. Pylori...
one of the test done to diagnose the presence of this bacterium in our stomach is called 'rapid urease test'
Dr Ali Farag (who was the lecturer lecturing us that day) explained further...urease test used to be difficult to be done before because the equipment used can fill a huge room...but now, the kit is just the size of our palm...
ting*
i was brought back across time where watching television was one of my daily activity...
(how fun is our mind...it can time travel!) <<== sumone told me this ;)
i was reminded of a movie called "Honey, I've Shrunk The Kids!"
directed by joe johnston...
it got me thinkin, H. Pylori was only discovered about 2-3 decades ago...how fast has our technology progressed and developed eyh?
we didn't only shrunk the urease kit test...LOL
we got mini cameras in pills to diagnose stuff way deep in the small intestine
we got we got nanotech now that build stuffs using the microscope...
or simply...juz see how our phones n netbooks or ipads are getting as smaller n thinner as they can be
(now even the technology wants to be on diet...LOL)
it's like the writer of this movie has foreseen the future - that movie was released in 1989
ironically that was the year i was born!...no wonder it's stuck in my head~
but, no matter how much we've progressed and achieved in making our daily life easier...if that doesn't help us progressing in our human value...this world is still not a better place..:(
mayb we've shrunk our hearts too?
*alhamdulillah Egypt is better than usual, and will insyaAllah get out of this mess better than before
*May we all be guided by Allah to make the best of our time here :)
