Catch up on each week's service, so you know what's going on for the elderly :D |
Sunday, 22 September 2013 @ 17:12Report for service on 21st September (by Amelia)
Participants: Eehwee, Jiahwee, Liaojia, Zhao Hang, AmeliaAbsentees: Suren, Yangsheng Collected dessert from Biz canteen fruits stall on Friday (the auntie cooked white fungus with longan! :)). Split into two groups on Saturday morning to collect food from Science Canteen (Yong Tau Foo stall) and Arts canteen (Chicken rice & snacks stall). Aunty Roseita came down to the pavillion to meet us. Told her about the details of MAF celebration on the 25th and asked if we could use the power supply from her house on that day. She said she'll have to ask her son. Gave out food to New uncle, Ah Ma Chan Choy Siong and Ah Ma Choy Lai Oi who were waiting at the void deck. Informed them about MAF celebration. Ah Ma Choy Lai Oi had difficulty understanding us as she is deaf. Many of the elderly were out today as the Seniors Activity Centre at Block 8 was giving out free goodie bags of food to the elderly. Aunty Nelly's side Other than the elderly we met at the void deck, only Uncle William, Uncle Edward and Mother & Son were in. All the other elderly went to Block 8. Aunty Nelly has been hospitalised due to blood clots in her legs. Her nephew, Winston, informed us about it on Friday. She is better now. Uncle Ali's side Block 2 Auntie Chan Fan: She was not in when we arrived. Her neighbour/friend from the 8th floor was there waiting for us to help her collect her food. She told us that she will help Auntie Chan Fan to buy her groceries occasionally. Auntie Lee Ah Hoong: Her opposite neighbour informed us that she has been hospitalised since Thursday for food poisoning. :( Block 3 Cat Uncle and Uncle Paul were in so we passed them the food and informed them about MAF. Uncle Hoo and Uncle Sam were not at home so we hung the food (with the MAF flier) outside their door. Aunty Leow was not at home so we left the food in her trolley. Met Aunty Leow when she was coming back from Block 8 and she told us to leave Uncle Sam's food with hers next time in the trolley as his food will be stolen if it is hung on the gate. Uncle Ali: We waited for Uncle Ali to return from Block 8. He told us that he will be going for a fishing trip next week (probably Thursday or Friday) and will only be back the following week. Things to note: 1. Return Aunty Nelly her clothes. 2. Remember to leave Uncle Sam's food with Aunty Leow's in future. 3. Uncle Ali may not be home next week. 4. The RC at Block 8 4th floor will be lending us tables for our MAF celebration. We will need to collect at around 6pm on the actual day. |

Participants: Liao Jia, Ruth Ong, Tang Siyi, Wang Gejing, Zhao Hang
Today, we have to collect food from four canteens-Biz, Arts, Eng, Science. And the food from Eng Canteen had been prepared when we arrived there. Thus we were a bit late.
Block 2
Aunty Roseita (03-60): She lost her purse-together with IC and $100. We told her to file a police report. She also requested for secondhand clothes and new ointment to relieve itchiness (She says taht the last bottle we got for her wasn't effective.) Aunty Nelly (08-48): She behaved normally. She was her usual chatty self and picked on the food we gave. Block 13 Uncle william (07-30): He was not in today hence we gave his share to auntie Lee Ah Hoong. --Thanks for Roth's contribution Block 2 Auntie Lee Ah Hoong (07-181): She was not at home when we went to her house. We called her, but no response. And the food was hung outside the door. Block 3
Uncle Paul (04-123): He was not at home when we went to his house. And the food was put in his house, though. (We reassembled the food! :))
Uncle Hoo Kun Kwai (08-105): He waited outside the elevator in his floor because we were too late. Uncle Ali (14-133): He was not at home.
Things to note:
1. Bring Aunty Roseita new ointment to relieve her itchness. Try to find some secondhand clothes, and bring to her during next service.
2. Interview the uncle from block 13.
3. Return loads of clothes and bed sheets to Aunty Nelly.

Void Deck:
- We passed a young couple Aunty Roseita’s food as well as the 2nd
hand bag she asked for (-:

floor) again. Maybe we will buy it for her before service this coming Saturday!

her house if we are free.

Blk 3
- Uncle Ali is going to Indonesia for 3 days

detergent/mop.
3. Check on Aunty Nelly's condition
4. Clean Aunty Lee’s house
