Her children are still in school and 4 of them suffer from chronic illnesses such as epilepsy, thalassemia, bronchitis and leukemia. Trips to the polyclinic and hospital are a monthly affair and the doctor has said her youngest child will only have 2 more years to live. Even so, they were coping with the difficulties when she and her husband were earning about $1,500 a month. Things became worse when Mdm S herself became ill earlier this year and was given a 1-year MC. Her husband is the only one currently working (in a building maintenance job) and they are struggling to make ends meet.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Items for Sale<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>All sale proceeds will go to Mdm S. Minimum prices are listed for the merchandise (we encourage you to purchase at a higher price) while artworks will be sold to the highest bidders.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><u>Artworks<\/u><\/p>\n<p>The Lion\u2019s Dream<\/p>\n<p>Stack 1 (60 Singapore In the World Cup footballs forming an arrow)<\/p>\n<p>Stack 2 (98 For the Love of the Game folders forming a pyramid&nbsp; )<\/p>\n<p>Stack 3 (106 Income cases forming a block)<\/p>\n<p>Stack 4 (216 S.
