No more war but no peace either for veteran soldier MalaysiaNow 1 hour ago
Every week without fail, A Arullapan brings his wife to a physiotherapy centre for treatment.
At 74, this is no mean feat, but she suffered a stroke six years ago and depends on her weekly sessions in order to maintain the small steps in progress she has made.
In order to do so, though, Arullapan must leave their son, Pius, alone at home. He is often torn inside as Pius, 51, is disabled and requires constant care.
Things were not always like this for Arullapan. Once upon a time, he and his wife Annamary Sokkan lived a happy and relatively normal life.
