A VASCULAR ACCESS OPERATION WAS PERFORMED ON MR. CHUI ON FEBRUARY 12 TO ENABLE HIM TO RECEIVE DIALYSIS AT HOME. HE HAS SINCE BEEN PLACED IN THE HOSPITAL FOR A SIX-WEEK OBSERVATION PERIOD BEFORE HE CAN RECEIVE HOME DIALYSIS.
+MR. CHUI WILL BE ALLOWED TO USE THE MACHINE AS LONG AS THE NEED EXISTS, THE SPOKESMAN SAID.
MEANWHILE, MR. CHUI'S WIFE IS SPENDING FOUR WEEKS WITH THE RENAL UNIT AT THE PRINCESS MARGARET HOSPITAL TO OBSERVE AND LEARN HOW TO OPERATE THE MACHINE SO THAT SHE CAN TREAT HER HUSBAND AT THEIR HUNG HOM HOME.
FIREMAN CHUI JOINED THE SERVICES IN 1965 AND HAS THREE CHILDREN AGED BETWEEN FOUR AND TEN.
+MY HUSBAND AND I WILL BE ETERNALLY GRATEFUL TO THE FIRE SERVICES FOR WHAT THEY HAVE DONE,+ SAID MRS. CHUI,
+ THE PURCHASE OF THE MACHINE HAS GIVEN A NEW RAY OF HOPE TO MY FAMILY AND WE WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER HOW MY HUSBAND'S COLLEAGUES HAVE BEEN SO GENEROUS, SYMPATHETIC AND PATIENT WITH US IN THE LAST COUPLE OF MONTHS, SHE ADDED.
