I’m not sick, just a bit unwell
(ISBN 983-43253-0-4).

2010

Yvonne Foong 在她十六岁时被诊断为患有神经纤维瘤,一种让患者生活在沉默空间,从这个我们许多人认为理所当然的世界孤立起来的疾病。
当她踏入病房的暗淡生活,所有的关系和友谊都正面临考验。如果您曾想过应付得了不治之症,并不断收到令人颓废的消息会是什么样的状况的话, Yvonne 的故事将会是一个充满坚强及带来希望的故事。她的努力见证了她在同一年被封为‘2005 年最杰出青年’ 及‘马来西亚梦想奖’的事迹。
《我不是生病, 只是不舒服》以充满情绪,直率而诚实的方式不仅阐明神经纤维瘤病的可怕后果,也带领你去了解所有不幸的马来西亚人所面临的挣扎。这是一个对任何想实现信念和希望的人的激励。

2009
The second and latest edition of my book. Contains minor editing and a catchy new cover with my photo as a toddler. My father snapped this photo of me prior to suffering a brain hemorrhage when I was three. This photo cannot be reproduced, just as my dad’s brain trauma cannot be reversed.

Price: RM20.00
