Our Dear Friend,

Let me introduce you to my family. I am Lee Pei Ling, my husband George Ng, and the joy of our life, our precious son, 7 years old Matthew. Both myself and my husband are HWA’s beneficiaries.

Due to a virus attack when I was 13 months old, I suffered from weakness in both my hands and legs – a medical condition known as Quadriparesis. My condition further deteriorated when I was 18 years old after which I have to depend on wheelchair for mobility. George suffers from paralysis on the right side of his body due to a stroke he suffered when he was 17 years old.

Our son Matthew was born in 2014. When the nurse first placed baby Matthew near me, just after his birth, tears of joy just swelled in my eyes. I could not stop crying. To me it was a miracle to have my baby as I never dreamt that I would ever be a mother with my disabilities. Even now I feel deeply emotional whenever I hold my son. He is in Primary 1 this year.

Both me and husband are, thankfully, gainfully employed as an administrative assistant and a graphic designer respectively. Myself and my husband despite our disabilities are contented with our life. We have many people to thank for in our journey. My supportive family, and HWA for providing us with subsidised transport and rehabilitation services. We also enjoyed the many social and recreational activities organised by HWA.

We are grateful most pertinently to ‘YOU’ our dear donor. Our recovery journey, as well as that of many HWA’s beneficiaries, is made possible because of big-hearted Donors like you.

On behalf of all HWA beneficiaries, including myself & my family, Thimajit Singh, Juraimi and Siew Han, ‘Seasons Greetings’ to you and your loved ones. It’s people like you who make this world a better place to live in and we wish you only the Best for the New Year and hope it brings you Good Health and Happiness, which you truly deserve.

Warmly yours

Pei Ling, George, Matthew
On behalf of HWA beneficiaries & Staff
