Can you come along?

Posted on February 18, 2010 by Yvonne Foong

Are you free to lend me a hand on the morning of March 1st, 2010? There is an award ceremony I need to attend.

Date: Monday. March 1st 2010
Time: 11:30am
Venue:
Royal Selangor Golf Club
Banquet Hall
Jalan Tun Razak
Kuala Lumpur

Usually, mom would drive with me being her eyes and brain. I have a map here but Mom does not read maps. Since surgeons removed a tumor from my left lateral ventricle in December, my eyesight is still recovering from that surgery and can’t see too well. Without help, we might end up driving around the place with no avail. Then I’d feel nauseous and throw up.

Are you able to come along with us from our Subang Jaya home to the venue and back?

About Yvonne Foong

As a child, Yvonne Foong dreamed of growing up to help others. To achieve her ambition, she began studying to become a psychologist. But things changed when tumours were discovered in her body at the age of sixteen. She was diagnosed with neurofibromatosis type 2 -- a genetic illness with no cure. Fighting for survival, Yvonne turned to fundraising and embarked on a medical odyssey to the United States. Her experiences since then have transformed her into a motivational speaker; inspiring hope, faith and strength. Yvonne is currently working to establish A Celebration of Life, a charity foundation that provides NF patients in Malaysia with financial and logistical support.
