Semi Solid Diet

Ley Kun, my classmate from Class of 1978 and I normally visit Miss Norris on Fridays. Here’s what she had to say after last Friday’s visit.

Hi Mad,
Hey – do you know that the Grand Dame is eating semi-solids now? She’s quite ‘tam-jiak’. Asking for western meals! She’s absolutely delighted to be eating again. We sure can learn a lot from her. What an inspiration!

An inspiration indeed! Since her stroke in November 2011, Miss Norris has been unable to swallow easily. The hospital has been feeding her via a tube. What good news that she is able to eat some semi-solid foods at long last. Those of us who used to regularly meet Miss Norris over lunch or tea would know that she does LOVE her food!(will attempt to get a photo of Miss Norris for the next blog – provided she says yes!)
