25 March 2016, 11:55 PM - The Birth of My First Grandchild

My daughter's husband, Fazree, called up my wife at 10.30 PM that Nur Amalina had entered the operation theater. The gynecologist had decided to perform a caesarian since the infant's heart-beat was growing weak.

My wife and I arrived at the HKL Maternity Ward by 12.30 AM. We were not allowed to enter the ward, so, we waited at the Visitors Waiting Room at Ground Floor. Fazree came down afterwards to inform us that all was well and showed us a few pictures of the new born baby. Yes, our grandson was born and I became a grand-father. Only two visitors were allowed, therefore, my wife followed Fazree into the Ward at Level 3. I remained at the Waiting Room.

Some thirty minutes later, Fazree and my wife came down. Since it was almost 2.00 AM, my wife and I decided to go back home. Fazree would stay at the Ward.

Fazree and Amalina had chosen a name for our grand-son. The name is Muhammad Zafeer Ayden.
