Happiness is...

IJN doctors said they are happy with Dr M's progress. In fact, the Tun has also been able to walk unaided since Sunday.
Screenshots was informed that Dr M will continue with post-surgery rehabilitation, including chest and muscle strengthening exercises. So, to give him adequate rest in between physiotherapy sessions, let's respect that visitations continue to be limited to immediate family members.
Happiness is... Dr M is out of ICU!

I am also happy to see the positive progress of TDM. I pray for his speedy recovery and to have TDM back on his feet.
I also agree that visitations should be limited. Remember that TDM had a second operation due to infection after the first surgery.
On a separate matter, reading The Star this morning on Hui Yi, I am disgusted with the MCA leaders trying to get cheap publicity and political mileage in having their photo taken with Hui Yi. Should it not be that visitations for Hui Yi be restricted as well, just in case any infection may be detrimental to Hui Yi due to exposure to many visitors? To see that the health minister and being a medical doctor be among the guest is pathetic

There are two people in this world that are masters in the art of survival and refuse to "disappear". That will be LKY and TDM. maybe it is their rivalry that keeps their voices active.
JEFF OOI says: You again failed to see the obvious. Samy Vellu. (On record, both LKY and TDM are retiring and retired from power-based politics, respectively.)

LOL. You're right, Jeff.
The omnipresence of Uncle Sammy who can blame God for disasters.
I do hope Tun M can right all the wrongs he has done previous. He has put too much power into that one position that a fool can't manage.
Or maybe the fool is a wolf in sheep's skin.

A wish of luck and prayers to Dr. M for getting better and well after that 2nd bypass which gripped the nation.
Even the newspapers WITHOUT fail manage to get a snippet of how Dr. M is doing daily and of course via Marina's blog postings.
