Another Absent Friend

The world has become quieter

The loss of a unique voice and laughter

The lives she had touched and saved

The cries of the many babies she had delivered

Deeply missed by all her loved ones.

(climbing the Great Wall of China, 2001)

Dr Tan Qui Hong was a consultant Obstetrician & Gynecologist who had a flourishing practice at Jalan Tebrau, Johor Bahru, Malaysia and has admission rights to Puteri Specialist Hospital. Yet, in spite of her success, she remains humble and lived a simple lifestyle. She did not put on airs. She has a pleasant smile and always enjoyed the simple pleasures of life. In her practice, I believed she has touched many lives. I am privileged that she counted me as her friend and I shall miss her.
