One trouble comes after another.

Being diagnosed with breast cancer at the age of 68 might already sound heartbreaking, but for Ms. Ng, this was only the beginning of her challenges. Now, at 79, Ms. Ng faces yet another painful struggle—a severe wound on her lower back with exposed, damaged tissue that grows larger each day. Mr. Goh, Ms Ng’s son, as her primary caretaker, shares the painful suffering of his mother.

Tragic Turn: Elderly Mother Faces New Health Scare After Fall

It was already painful for Mr. Goh to witness his elderly mother undergo a mastectomy to survive her breast cancer. Worse, on June 9 this year, his mom accidentally fell in the bathroom. They were relieved when they found nothing serious until a blackened spot was spotted on her lower back as she started losing her appetite. She was then rushed to the hospital for further treatment.

Ms. Ng was suspected to have a crack in her lumbar bone. However, due to her age and the expensive cost of surgery, she was advised not to proceed. Mr. Goh, already struggling financially, made the heartbreaking decision to care for his mother at home. Despite his best efforts, her wound continued to worsen.

Inadequate Resources and Persistent Pain

With limited resources, the most he could do was arrange for daily wound cleaning services to prevent the infection from spreading and to clean the damaged tissue. Each day, he watches helplessly as his beloved mother endures unimaginable pain, knowing he can’t afford the care she desperately needs.

Mr. Goh’s monthly income is barely enough to cover their daily needs. To make matters worse, his financial status is in a deficit of over RM3000, making it impossible to afford his mother’s necessary medical treatment. With a stutter in his voice, he shares that his only wish is to witness his mother enjoy her old age with good health, putting aside his intention to get married to fully commit to his mother’s care
