My mom... she worked hard for us, we were very well off, she put me in international school, we stayed in a serviced apartment, went on fancy holiday trips, but she probably went through a lot of stress at work that in 2001 she was diagnosed with cancer and underwent treatment for it. We lost everything. Our home, our friends, our life. We stayed in people's homes because we couldnt afford rent. My mom recovered but she wasnt fit to work, we had no money at 1 point that we ate 1 ringgit nasi lemak for months. There was a day we only had half a piece of bread and cold maggi. I didnt go to school for 2 years (form 2 and 3) and finally told myself this shouldnt be my life. I got my acting gig when I was 15, worked day and night and I'd go to school in the mornings. Those were the most tiring years of my life, but we built our life back to where we were. But people said very mean things about us, and talked about why I didnt have a dad, said very hurtful things that really affected my mom & she fell ill again and went through depression. I thought she was going to die from the heartache. I wished that my dad was still around & promised to work so hard & become famous that ONE DAY daddy would come back and find me. So I became a workaholic. At the tender age of 16 I wanted to have my own children, coz I was so lonely. I wanted my children to experience a father's love. I promised to be independent & able to take care of myself mentally physically & financially. So today I am who I am because of all that's happened. I am able to support my mom and brother, and myself today. I have a loving husband & beautiful children, something only Allah knows I wanted so badly, I have that "fame" and still hold that hope that one day he will meet me and I can hug my Daddy again. I have my team of people running the businesses that I have today and my career as an entertainer. I love my supporters and I love my career. Thank you Allah for the blessings you gave, & for all the things You have taken away because I strongly believe that is what's best for me. I thank everyone who has played a part in helping me reach my dreams, especially mom & dad 💖
