“Malaysia where love grows”, the theme for 57th Merdeka celebration ... this describes exactly what Meals on Wheels is trying to achieve, i.e. to encourage GIVING, SHARING, CARING AND LOVING especially with the less fortunate.
In our MOW Food Bank delivery yesterday, we distributed Malaysian flags to our recipients who happily waved the flags displaying their patriotism and grateful for the help they are receiving from a caring society.
One of the recipient, Mr Maran and his family have been in our MOW Food Bank program for the past 2 years. His family recently went through a traumatic time as his 14 year old son, Sasi who has cerebral palsy (and blind), was admitted to the ICU in KLGH, with serious lung infection, high fever and difficulty in breathing. With proper care from the good doctors, and a very loving family, plus all the prayers and blessings, he was finally discharged 3 days ago. He was in the hospital for almost a month. His mother, Vijaya, said he is "50% okay". Doctor from KLGH now visits Sasi at home once a week.
