50 days

50days

When i was told that this book was finally out, i searched at a few places but none of the big stores had it surprisingly. Distributors still celebrating the festive holidays i guess!

The author, Dato Marina Mahathir was also helping me to locate stores that had it and finally on friday evening i found it at Pustaka Bangsar in Lucky Gardens of all the places!

This book details the 50 days when our beloved Tun Mahathir was in IJN last year for his 2nd heart bypass operation in the eyes of his daughter Marina. Heartwarming and touching. I recommend it to anyone who appreciates family bonding or those who have gone through a similar experience. We often take for granted what the family goes through during such an ordeal. In the case of Tun, it was not just another medical procedure and this book shows how miraculously he survived the operation at age 83 and recovered after that.

Congratulations Kak Marina… your dad should be very proud of you!

  1. Hi Shaik, thanks for this nice plug on my book. And congratulations on finally joining the bloggerhood! You’ll find it addictive!

  2. thank you for the kind words.

  3. Isn’t Marina a Datin Paduka of Selangor? It’s the only state that retains the “femininity” of the women it honours with a datukship. Other states do not distinguish between its male and female recipients I think. Please correct me if I’m wrong.

    I’ll definitely get a copy of Marina’s book!
