JASIN: A woman battling stage four colon cancer endured severe pain to cast her vote in Melaka, determined not to miss what could be her final opportunity.
Noraini Md Lajis, 49, was taken by ambulance from her home in Taman Kelubi Damai to the polling centre at SK Seri Lanang in Kampung Kelubi at noon.
Her husband, Samat Majid, 63, arranged the transport through the Malaysian Red Crescent Society's Bukit Serindit branch to help her fulfil her wish.
For Samat, a retired Radio Televisyen Malaysia (RTM) journalist, the journey was about honouring the wishes of his wife of 22 years, knowing that opportunities to do so were becoming increasingly precious.
