Kevin :I will still continue to keep Bee Hooi's contact number in my mobile phone, her email as well as her contact in my instant messenger even though I will never see her online again...
Bee Hooi is like a sister to most of us, not just a specialist. I will miss her very much.... :-( I was on call with her once in ICU. We were treating a patient who was dying and I didn't know what to do. She stayed with me the whole night until the patient passed away...
Goay :

Our dear Tacia (big sister)
Those who chatted with Bee Hooi before on MSN instant messenger or Windows Live Messenger will know that Bee Hooi uses tacia as her display name. I remembered few years back while chatting online with her, I asked why she used the name tacia. And the reply I got was something that I never expected. She said she is the eldest sister in her family, hence tacia. How come I never thought of that earlier on? Tacia = Big Sister in chinese. Well, Bee Hooi is not only the eldest sister in her family, she is also a dear sister to me, and to many of us. A sister who is always there to share our problems, giving advices, cheer us up etc.

She was a distant cousin that i never had a proper chance to get to know. But i went to school with her sister. She was definately their Tacia and will remain so forever in their memories. It breaks my heart that she had to leave but i believe higher order has bigger plans for her. I was told by a relative that she has so much planned after her return from Paris. She was planning for some tremendous charity work after her return. Hopefully her legacy will be continued by her family. In death she even save lives beautifully. The family decision to donate her organs was a good call and i applauded them for it. It was hard for me to see the family in such a pain and i really don't know what to say to her sister but to just offer my condolences in silent. I know for a fact that they will keep on growing and heal the pain and the memories of their beloved daughter, sister and mother will remain forever
