Jenny Wong

Years gone by, it is now 2017. Uncle Michael was on a flight and could not lift his arm to place the luggage into the overhead compartments. Early diagnosis from doctor, indicated he had carpel tunnel, common for someone who is a software engineer, computer scientists who uses mouse and keyboard all day.

Very soon, he was officially diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis, and was advised that the nerves that have started dying on his right arm will likely spread to thee other arm and legs. By 2021, he had his first episode of COVID and that weakened him. Little Jenny grown up did not visit until 2025, 3 years went with lockdown. July 2025 was the last time she saw him, and he was bed bound. Jenny and her partner who happened to be both in I.T. assisting Uncle Michael with voice control technology on smart phones, the only way he could control anything, with his voice. They tested all brands of phones, and Siri on Apple phones was best for his voice and would lower the rate of inaccurate calls to contacts on his phone haha. (I am currently sitting at dinner out, tearing up) Came Christmas 2025, Jenny started a family video call, Uncle Michael can be seen very weak with a skin infection. The infection would spread and ultimately end his life and suffering in Jan 2026.  Thank your for reading and I wish I could see him one more time and tell him how much he is appreciated and how brave he was going through this with very little support from the government in Hong Kong. Auntie Eliza and Uncle Michael were inseparable, she was his solid full time carer and gave up on her career. More to come....
