My aunt, who is suffering from Stage IV lung cancer, has been transferred to the new Batu Gajah Palliative Care Centre after being discharged from the Ipoh General Hospital. While it would mean a 30-minute drive for us to visit her, at least we know that she is in safe hands and has medical attention 24 hours a day.
According to folks there, this is a new building and currently, there are only five patients staying there, including my aunt. Every patient has a room to him or herself and it's air-conditioned. At least, these people, living out the last stage of life, are living in comfort.
Her doctors have said that she only has "months" to live, so we are all trying to do our best to meet her demands and do make her as comfortable as possible. I sometimes wonder if she knows if she has only such a short time left in this world....
