Dr M close to full recovery, able to carry out daily activities

 

Former prime minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad is close to full recovery after being discharged from the National Heart Institute (IJN) on Feb 5.

In a video clip uploaded to his Facebook page, he said he could now carry out various daily activities and hoped to fully recover.

“There were times when I was not hopeful of recovery, but Alhamdulillah, with the treatment I received at the IJN, I have recovered.

“Now I can walk, eat, sleep, sit. I am almost like normal, but not that strong to work and so on. But I hope I can (fully) recover,” he said in the post today.

Meanwhile, Mahathir thanked everyone who had prayed for his health until he managed to recover from an illness that he described as very bad.

In another Facebook post, he also shared pictures of him taking a walk around Tasik Putrajaya with his wife Siti Hasmah Mohd Ali.

Mahathir was previously admitted to the IJN to undergo an elective medical procedure.
