Today is the 60th birthday of Kerk Kim Hock, the former secretary-general of the DAP and the former MP for Kota Melaka.
Many DAP leaders have gone to Mahkota Hospital in Melaka to celebrate his birthday.
Kerk is a cancer survivor. He has suffered from colon cancer about 10 years ago and he was healed after that. His cancer problem relapsed last year and he has undergone chemotherapy for about a year.
3 weeks ago, Kerk has had intestinal surgery. Subsequently he suffers from nausea and diarrhea until today. He has to be hospitalized to be on drips to prevent further dehydration.
Kerk looks good today although he still suffers the lost of appetite. We sincerely wish him to have a blessed birthday and speedy recovery.
I believe he will recover soon as he still has unaccomplished mission in this temporal world. May God be with him.
