SJB MP Harin Fernando who is currently under treatment for heart complications is to undergo decisive heart surgery tomorrow.

"I will be facing an eight-hour long, decisive surgery on Oct. 1. In May this year, I went through a similarly decisive  test in life," Fernando said in his Facebook post.

"During this short span of time, I understood by experience that not only every day is a challenge, but life itself is a challenge. Needless to say that I learnt a lot of lessons for life by living through this. I have faced risky trials and tests in my life, with regard to several matters. I have never backed down from facing challenges and risks. But, facing a test that is completely life-related is challenging and risky, above all the trials and tests I’ve faced so far. I am ready for that too. It is strange to face the same challenge twice in life," he added.

"Thank you from the bottom of my heart to all of you, who inquired about me, prayed for me and keep on praying for me from the time I was hospitalized, as per their beliefs and even those who trust in the nature. The massive support from the people makes me even more stronger. I am fondly reminded that everyone of you add a very broad meaning to my life. I was strengthened by the heartfelt blessings from every single one of my family, my doctors, my friends and colleagues.I think it was God or a divine force of nature, which timely warned me at two most crucial moments, even when I was not feeling any physical discomfort. I still cannot believe that it so happened. My conscience orders me that I have to dedicate my life for further betterment of the lives of my people. It goes onto order that I have to commit myself for the people, who strengthened me and those who supported me. I have always stood for the truth and what is right, as per my conscience," he also said.
