Popped over to the National University Hospital this afternoon to visit Kak Kiah, who banged her head badly against a door earlier today as a result of a fall. She looked very much the worse for wear in her hospital bed, with stitches and one of those cumbersome neck collars. Simply eating was difficult for her, apart from the fact she has no real appetite at the moment. The doctors are obviously concerned about possible further falls and damage to her spine. So, for the moment, things are far from good.
In contrast I'm happy to report that, back in Melaka, whence Noi paid a fleeting visit last Thursday, young Afnan is thriving once again. It seems he's now capable of climbing into his own baby walker. When he stayed with us generally the only thing he climbed over was yours truly. I suspect, I hope, he's got years of bruised shins and banged heads lying in painful but glorious wait.
