Remembering mum as a gentle and caring nurse

Remembering mum as a gentle and caring nurse

This is a touching piece by Prof. Khairulmaini Osman Salleh ( a former classmate of mine) about his mother, Aini Bte Ahmad, who was an assistant nurse (special grade). 

A cherished moment with my late mother. 
I remembered asking her about sowing beans. She explained that when beans are planted, several processes occur. First, the seeds absorb water and swell, beginning the process known as germination. As the seed coat breaks open, a small root, called a radicle, emerges, starting to grow downward into the soil to anchor the plant and absorb nutrients and water.
Simultaneously, a shoot emerges upward towards the light, eventually breaking through the soil surface. As the plant develops, it forms leaves that enable photosynthesis, allowing the plant to produce energy for further growth. This cycle continues as the plant matures, ultimately producing more beans, completing the growth cycle.

Mothers, they know things!

Note: Btw my late mum started off as a mid-wife aka bidan. She travelled all over Negri Sembilan to deliver babies, during those times i remember life was really hard irrespective who we were.

Ms Chen, i am sorry for your troubles, i just felt that my mum as a nurse she was always there for people irrespective of who they are, i  only want to remember her as the gentle and caring nurse that she was.

Ms. Chen: Prof. Khairul, I am touched by the way you remember your mum!
