What's Up with Chew Chor Meng?

[Yr1985]

don't mention it..at least you have checked it and having treatment (medication) for it..

 

hope Chew Chor Meng's condition not so serious..I heard from some years back that his wife is a volunteer for those social services..so kind hearted people should not have such bad luck

 

health is wealth indeed

 

Yeah, the wife also used to handle my house finance, totally approachable and nice lady even when the husband's at his peak. Talk about kind hearted people, life's never

fair, just keep in good health for self and family.

Happened to glance at the Sinming Newspaper just now and saw CCM face plastered on the front page...can't really read chinese...anyone konws what happened to him?

 

According to the latest news, he got Kennedy disease

It's a genetic thing, no life endangerment, but could result in paralysis. He is a good man and it's really very sad to know he's going to suffer a lot because of the disease. I'll join many others to pray for him.

People are having less children. Economics at work that is doing nature a favor.

Chew sharing news of his spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy with the congregation. He is expected to face 'physical impairment' in the next seven to 15 years, but the disease does not affect life expectancy.

yah boy..

today's papers reported that he did charity in poor countries as well..not sure if publicised previously but I guess, if really kind-hearted person, last time do charity all keep low-key..

 

anyway, now already report he cant walk up stairs or go on stage..get people buy lunch etc..guess it might be faster than 5 yrs before he needs wheelchair..40 yrs old niah..pitiful

Hope he takes it well. Sometimes life is such, very unexpected, regardless of whether you are a kind soul, did charitable deeds or whatsoever, bad luck will still befall you when the time comes. Although I believe in karma, but sometimes, it just doesn't happen this way.

he just have to control the symptoms and reduce the ageing process ....
