LAUGH HOHOHAHAHA: Laughter at HOSPIS Malaysia

LAUGH HOHOHAHAHA: Laughter at HOSPIS Malaysia

Laughter at HOSPIS Malaysia

From the very beginning, after certified as  a Teacher, I had wanted to bring laughter to cancer patients. The opportunity came, when I was contacted by the manager of  Hospis to conduct a session with the patients.  It was a very, very satisfying session, seeing how laughter lifted the spirits of all the participants.  Even at lunch, there was much laughter, and light-heartedness.  I am so grateful for this opportunity to share laughter.

Laughing With the Elderly residents from the Little Sisters of the Poor Church

A friend told me he was visiting the elderly residents in conjunction with the Chinese New Year celebrations in March. I thought it would be a good idea to bring Laughter to them and volunteered to join the event.  It was a good session, with the Sisters joining in and enjoying the exercise.  Seeing the wonderful effect on them, I now laugh with the residents once a fortnight. HoHoHaHaHa.
