The final 2 Days with Sabrina Yeap | 19 July The Wake


It was deadly shock when i found out Sabrina's death is not a joke! Acute leukemia took Sabrina away from us.

Probably there's alot of people who doesn't know what Sabrina do in her life. I get to know Sabrina when i signed up for Dr. Dog programme. I've met her twice only.

My first time was at Doggywood. The time when i spoke to John Landon about the only problem Snowie couldn't join the Dr Dog as Snowie would bark at other dogs. I was lucky to meet him that day. Sabrina and all the other volunteers were there. John took Snowie's leash and said he'd do an immediate assessment for her. She passed the exam. and i remember Sabrina was calling the volunteers to take a picture of Snowie.

My second time was at Snowie's first Dr Dog visit to Hua Ming Autism Center. Sabrina is always busy video and snapping camera of us. She would say "u have to approach them" when i sit at the corner waiting for the kids to approach.

I met her twice. but i know alot of her. i know what she do and what a kind and hard working person she is. That's the reason i feel so sad when all of us lost her. She's an angel. God sent. And just so soon...she left..


Sabrina's wake was on the next day after she left. Her funeral was sponsored by Nirvana memorial center. I went to her wake together with my cousin sister on thursday, 19th July. It's very kind of Nirvana to allow dogs to visit her wake. I brought Snowie along. I'm glad i brought Snowie and Yoyo because they both will cheer me up much.

Her wake was packed with so many people. mostly rescuers - those that i recognize. I didn't shed a tears that day. i was busy handling Snowie. She appear to be abit nervous. Yoyo was the one who has that redden eyes after she see the story of her life on the display board.


We spend some time around. Chit chat around. and left at 11pm. Before we walk out to the parking lot, we walk around the Nirvana memorial center. The place is crazy! it's so luxurious and it actually look better than a hotel. it does make us feel more comfy tho...


It's my first time to a wake. how embarrassing.. Yoyo and i didn't know what is the white pouch for. She place it in the bag when a volunteer hand it to her. We then found out that it's to put the money "pak kam". We can't help think back how ugly it is to pass the money from wallet to hand.. sigh.. this shows us.. what happen had already happen.. we can't possibly ask the money back from the volunteer then place in the white pouch then give back to her. just like what happen to Sab. We can't possibly have her back. what we can do is learn whats worth, and walk with her. Till one day we'll meet again...  


We'll miss you,
