Driving directions from Yi Liang

1. Head down the Federal Highway in the direction of Klang/Shah Alam.

2. Go straight under the LDP bridge. After passing under the bridge, keep to your left lane.

3. Turn into Subang Jaya at the first turnoff, and keep to your left as you pass the Sime Darby Medical Centre on your left.

4. Go straight past the hospital on your left and Sri KL school across the road on your right. You will meet a roundabout at the end of the road. Do a U-turn at the roundabout and come back up the road. Take the first turn-off on your left, just before a bus stop. You will pass the Sri KL main gates and come to a T-Junction.

5. Take a left at the T-junction and look for a corner house with a lot of trees. That is the house.

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.
