The 1st part of this entry was written on Friday nite when it was reported that both of them went missing, I don't know why I was a bit hesitant in publishing it, I think deep in my heart I was hoping that both of them will be found, safe and sound. So I saved it as a draft, only to edit it again tonight with the sad news.
------------------------------------------------------------------
It was reported in most of the newpapers today but I took no notice of it until I read it in Harian Metro while waiting for my order.
Dua doktor pakar hilangAMPANG JAYA: Dua doktor pakar kanak-kanak hilang selepas keluar dari Hospital Ampang Puteri, di sini, dengan menaiki kenderaan seorang daripada mereka, pagi Rabu lalu.Kedua-dua mereka yang bertugas di hospital berkenaan dikenal pasti sebagai Haliza Mohd Shafie, 53, dan Amin Tai Abdullah@Tai Yun Ming, 57.
Ketua Polis Daerah Ampang Jaya, Asisten Komisioner Abdul Jalil Hassan, berkata pihaknya menerima laporan dibuat keluarga mangsa memaklumkan mereka masih tidak pulang sehingga semalam. “Kandungan laporan itu memaklumkan dua doktor berkenaan, Haliza bernombor kad pengenalan 560218-08-6392 manakala Tan bernombor kad pengenalan 521229-12-5201.
“Laporan polis itu dibuat suami Haliza, Md Ridzuwan Mansor yang menyedari kehilangan kedua-dua mereka sejak tarikh kejadian,” katanya di sini, semalam.
Menurut Jalil, hasil rakaman kamera litar tertutup (CCTV) pada jam 11.30 pagi mendapati kedua-dua mereka dilihat keluar dari hospital itu dengan berpakaian pejabat.“Mereka menaiki kereta jenis Nissan Latio berwarna hitam dengan nombor pendaftaran BKF 304 iaitu milik Haliza yang berada di tempat letak kereta kakitangan hospital. “Selepas itu, kedua-dua doktor berkenaan tidak pulang ke rumah mahupun datang bertugas dan kereta Amin turut masih berada di tempat letak kereta khas,” katanya.
Berikutan itu, beliau meminta orang ramai yang mempunyai sebarang maklumat berhubung kehilangan itu supaya menghubungi Inspektor Norazman Zakaria di talian 019-2147899 atau Ibu Pejabat Polis Daerah (IPD) Ampang Jaya di talian 03-42897222 untuk membantu siasatan.
It failed to register in my brain earlier coz other papers did not mention any names or which hospital.
Both of them are our family doctors. Dr Amin was the paediatric surgeon, the one who performed the surgery to correct Adan's condition (Trachea Oesofageal Fistula) when Adan was 3-days old and continued to monitor him in NICU for the next few weeks. He was the one I asked for when nurses failed to get Adan's vein to poke the IV.
While for Dr Haliza, she was Adan's paediatrician since Day 1. She was very fond of Adan since he was APSH 1st TOF case (born and treated).
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Now that both of them were no longer with us, all the memories kept on rolling in my head like a movie. I knew them both for 7 years esp. Haliza. When Adan was in his 1st year, we met her on weekly basis, and later with a good progress it became monthly, every 3 months, 6 months and now as and when necessary. Both Dr Haliza and Dr Amin were good friends.
It came as no surprise when the police confirmed that they suffered multiple injuries due to hiking accident somewhere in Bukit Tabuh. She was an outdoor type. We used to talk about her scuba diving trips and other activities. I read their friend's blog, it was mentioned that both had reached the everest base camp before and scheduled to climb Mt. Kinabalu, again. They might be warming up for the trip...fate's calling.
Due to our frequent visits, we knew the trick to avoid waiting too long in her clinic. Hubby will rempit to APSH to get the number 1st thing in the morning, usually no 1-4 hehe and we'll be there around 10 or 11am coz she only came in around 10.30 or 11.30 after her ward round. ahh..memories
You know what ? For 7 years.. I've been putting off the intention to capture her with my boy..there's always..nantilah..one day I will. Now..Adan will only remember her in his mind, as he fondly called...Dr Haliza Adan, like she belongs to him mmm...From now on, we won't be meeting her jovial-self and hearing her saying her usual greeting whenever we meet her...
'Haniff Rashdan, my special boy...'
Al-Fatihah dan takziah kepada keluarga Dr Haliza and Dr Amin. We are forever in debt to both of them.
