M’sian Nurse Working In S’pore Reunites With Family After 2 Years, Gets Emotional On Plane

Malaysian Nurse Returns Home & Reunites With Family After 2 Years

Since the Covid-19 pandemic started nearly 2 years ago, healthcare frontliners over the world have been struggling to battle the virus.

Unfortunately, by doing so, the majority were unable to see their families as they did not want to put them at risk. It was even more difficult for frontliners unable to return to their home country.

When the VTL between Malaysia and Singapore opened, many were finally able to go home. But some chose to return earlier even though it meant being quarantined.

Recently, a Malaysian nurse working in Singapore, Tracy Jantom, finally got a chance to return home.

Since Ms Jantom arrived from overseas, she still had to be quarantined. Thus, she could only see her family, who was waiting at the airport, from a distance.

Towards the end of the video, she told her viewers she was safe and sound in quarantine.

She also wanted to thank everyone who had been cheering her on while she was alone the past 2 years. Additionally, she expressed her gratefulness for those who got vaccinated, allowing her to fly home.

Appreciate our healthcare frontliners

Ms Jantom returned to Singapore earlier this month after spending November with her family.

It is definitely not easy to live away from your loved ones for so long, especially when work is so draining.

We’re glad Ms Jantom finally managed to reunite with her family after 2 years.

Ms Jantom’s story displays how emotionally, mentally and physically tiring it is to be a healthcare frontliner in this pandemic.

Let this be a reminder for everyone to be more appreciative of those who are sacrificing themselves to help us.
