Update: Old Lady Deserted By Doctor Son

For those who are interested (since another forumite mentioned it), i did write an email to the reporter for MDM Tan's details. Thought of inviting this old lady to have reunion dinner with us so she feel better.Here is my email and the reply..Wish her good luck and hope her son wakes up his idea soon

Well, my experience and my peers had advised me not to put too much emotions into the cases, as it will also pull you down emotionally & psychologically, together with the case subjects.Originally posted by snobbish:Some yr back TV got show this old man in Chinatown who has 2 mentally retard daughters..Well we went down his shop and gave him food and some money and clothes bags 4 the ladies.

It's absolute good for you to be caring and such.. But learn to detach yourself at some point. It's for your own mental & emotional health..
Again.. Well done!!.. -

oh, u r so nice.. can i join in ur future charity if ter is any?Originally posted by snobbish:Nobody has details of him..I instead would wish to scold the daughter in law instead
i think its the daughter in law who needs some good thrashing coz i think she is the one who condemn her husband thus him leaving his mum in lurch.
this kind of daugther in law must be one hell of typical sporean.
sad to see ple behaving this way. -
