She was married to John Wang Leong Chan 1966 to 2001 and is now a widow living in a senior community. She gave birth to eight children, has 37 grandchildren, and too many great-grandchildren to keep track of! Her firstborn was diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia in 1969. She lost her mother, sister and three uncles to suicide, and survived two personal attempts to end her life in 1963 and 1981. Two of her grandchildren have committed suicide. She courageously shares her life lessons to stop the stigma and prevent suicides.weniger sehen
