| Dear friend, Danny Tan will be undergoing his last chemotherapy at Singapore General Hospital from March 24~26, approximately a month after the previous one, in the same hospital. His specialists have scheduled his bone marrow transplant after the chemotherapy, which will be around end of March/ beginning of April. According to Danny's girl friend, Joey, each of the chemotherapies done in Singapore costs S$50,000 (approximately US$25,000), and the transplant will cost S$300,000 (approximately US$150,000). So far his medical bills in Edmond Medical Center, Oklahoma, United States, have not been cleared. Tan family has been searching monetary support from several charitable organizations in Malaysia and managed to raise around RM300,000 (approximately US$75,000), yet all the money raised were soon transacted to Singapore for medical bills. To date, the Malaysian Students Association at the University of Central Oklahoma (UCO) has raised almost US$10,000 during the last three months. This includes checks from Malaysian students/Malaysian Students Association from all over the United States, auction during Fall Graduation Dinner, donation boxes at the Central Cafetaria and International Office, Malaysian Student Department Chicago, and Malaysian Embassy at Washington D.C. More money will be added to Danny's medical fund from Oklahoma University's Malaysian Nite, UCO's Indian Students Association's Movie Night, and UCO MSA's Save a Life Charity Night auctions. Due to our incapability to obtain receipt books, we apologize that receipts will not be mailed to donors, but the complete name list of contributors will be posted by March 31, 2003 on the web site http://helpdannytan.tripod.com. Thank you for your support. Yours, Yin Hwee Chua President Malaysian Students Association University of Central Oklahoma (405)974-4155 |
