Hope Place Kuching Comes to Aid of Bedridden Grandmother
Community Compassion: Hope Place Kuching Extends a Helping Hand
KUCHING (July 5) – In a heartwarming act of community support, Hope Place Kuching recently came to the aid of a 60-year-old woman who has been bedridden due to an unidentified illness. The woman, Paijam Saee, received adult diapers and special milk supplements from the non-governmental organization (NGO).
The Struggles of Paijam Saee and Her Family
A Sudden Illness Changes Everything
Paijam Saee, who resides with her son and his family at Kampung Haji Baki, was a hardworking woman despite her age. Known for seldom falling ill, Paijam’s life took a drastic turn in March this year when she suddenly passed out at her workplace. She was immediately rushed to the hospital, where doctors discovered her sodium levels were dangerously low. Since then, Paijam has been bedridden, physically too weak to even sit up, and can only consume watery porridge or special milk supplements.
A Family in Need
Paijam’s son, Ilyasa, 36, works as a road maintenance laborer and earns a minimum wage, which is not sufficient to cover all of Paijam’s special needs. His wife, Sofiah, is the primary caregiver for Paijam, juggling household responsibilities while caring for their two school-going children. Despite the family’s financial struggles, Sofiah admires Paijam’s resilience and dedication. “She is a hardworking lady. She continues to work despite being 60 years old. Since her workplace is at Satok, she stays at a hostel and works even when she’s sick,” said Sofiah.
