DURING a week normally filled with joy and revelry, Madam Yenni Young found herself having to make the most heartrending decision of her life.
The 31-year-old told doctors last Wednesday to take her husband of one month, Mr Tong Kok Wai, off life support in hospital.
Mr Tong, 30, a Malaysian and permanent resident here, had suffered severe brain damage after being knocked down in a double hit-and-run accident in Bukit Panjang on Dec 15.
He had been unconscious all the while in an intensive care unit at the National University Hospital, feared brain-dead by doctors, and was taken off life support machines at 2pm on Christmas Day.
Madam Young, a Chinese Indonesian, said doctors had given them 48 hours last Wednesday to decide.
'We couldn't bear to at first,' said the hotel assistant manager. 'But it's for the best.'

or some Romanian's embassy staff, was involved in some 'hanky panky' with his SPG, she was steer his 'joy stick'..and lost control of the AUDI....
