Date of entry: 1/6/1948
(The entry was made in Chinese. This is a translation)
At 1 o'clock in the afternoon, Abdullah told me that the Ipoh hospital had telephoned to inform that Hou is completely cured and could be discharged immediately. I was so happy. I did not even want to take my lunch. I went back to take some clothing for Hou and left immediately for Ipoh.
Wife and daughter Peng had already gone to Ipoh this morning. Not knowing that Hou can be discharged today she had not brought his clothing along.
I arrived in Ipoh at 2 o'clock. Wife, big cousin sister, daughter Peng and 4th cousin brother were already in Rex waiting for me. We went immediately to the hospital. Hou had stayed in the hospital for 13 days in total. He has lost a lot of weight and looks pale. My poor son, he is so young, cannot even walk yet but had to suffer from so much hardship for 13 days.
