Wish Fulfillment Recipient: Ms. Lai (aged 77)
Wish Fulfillment Date: 17 May 2023
Treatment of Madam Lai’s end-stage stomach cancer reminded her to live life to the fullness. The 77-year-old and her 91-year-old husband both lived in an elderly care home in Kwun Tong. She wanted to visit her birthplace Macau again to taste the local food and take pictures with her children and grandchildren.
The social worker at the care home referred the case to the Brothers And Sisters In Christ Foundation. Volunteers, including a nurse immediately took action to make her dream come true.
With support from the Hong Kong Club Foundation, the children and grandchildren accompanied their wheel-chair bound parents taking pictures in scenic spots in Macau recently. Madam Lai was so pleased to taste again the local food while enjoying the warmth of old memory.
