A Night Wrought With Drama.

Trojans vs. Dalat Eagles 0-9
Fireants vs. Spartans 3-2

Within just 2 minutes of the Trojans-Eagles game kicking off, our Captain (Yeoh Jun Wooi) slipped and fell so hard on his head that it put him into a seizure and everything came to a grinding stop. For the next 20 minutes while awaiting anxiously for an ambulance to show up, everyone at the arena were silently sending up a prayer for him. Two ambulances finally show up at the Dalat school campus simultaneously from different hospitals.

Riding in the ambulance with him to the hospital was another story. With sirens blaring from the moment we left the campus to the time we got in to the hospital it took us 20-30minutes to go just a mere 10km. UNBELIEVABLE!!! The traffic in Penang is unrelenting and stubborn.....the cars just wouldn't budge. If the situation was more critical the patient would have died on the way there.

Anyway, to cut a long story short, we got to the hospital and got all the necessary checks done and the neuro surgeon says that Jun Wooi's doing fine. They're keeping him overnight for observation but will probably release him tomorrow to go home.

Thanks for your prayers.
