Uncle Edward site:

1. The authority was putting on non-slippery cement for the corridors of the HDB flats in Chin Swee Road area starting this week.

2. Cantonese uncle was currently at SGH. His neighbour told us that uncle felt very weak this Thursday afternoon so he helped uncle call ambulance to send him to hospital.

3. Auntie Seah needed us to help clean her house next week.

4. The new Auntie Cai (Blk 13, 04-24) was not in today. Next week's people please remember to interview her.

Uncle Ali's side:

1. For service on 12 July, remember to put 4 packs of food (with double knot each) inside Auntie Leow's trolley. They are for 2nd floor Cat Uncle, 12th floor Uncle Sam, Auntie herself and 15th floor Auntie Woo. (Next week IC to include this in next week's update agn)

2. Uncle Sam felt pain and numb in both of his heels, so next week people please check with him his condition to see whether we need to bring him to polyclinic.

Update on Uncle Sam's cataract surgery:

Uncle successfully completed surgery on his right eye this Monday afternoon. Ka Woon and Kenneth brought uncle to hospital for follow up on Tuesday. Everything was fine. For the second follow up this Friday, Jia Hwee and Kenneth brought Uncle to hospital to have his plastic cover and bandage removed. Currently uncle only needs to apply eyedrop once every four hours to prevent inflammation. So next week people please remember to remind uncle to continue with the application and also advise him to avoid oily and salty food due to his high blood pressure and to aid his recovery. Thanks Ka Woon and Kenneth for the help =)
