So after that I can't do anything. I say to the doctor, "I don't want the child, because I got a son he is Autistic. " I was also scared I [would] get another Autistic child, or that something would happen because of my age. The doctor say,"I can't do anything." So after that I just pray to God. Also I am so poor because at that age my mother got high blood pressure, and I also got high blood pressure. At 7 months he not grow anymore, and the baby turn this way and that way, so the doctor say, "Induce." And then the baby inside, my youngest son, he is very naughty swimming here and there, when at that time the Doctor want to induce at 10 o'clock, the doctor says he can't because "Breach", my son go here and there and the Doctor say, "can't". And I say. "Try". He said "Can't try". So the doctor say. "Cesarean".

After that I say "OK, better you tie for me, I don't want any more." And then after that, we can't do anything. My husband look after the 3 kids at home, because I don't know about any helper. The nurse or doctor said, "your husband
he come look at you," after the cesarean, but I say,"no, he can't because we got three children at home.

If he come nobody look after the three kids!" I say, "never mind that". She say, "you want to sign for the caesarian?" I say, "sign". And then after that everything is OK. I get half an anaesthetic, so I can see how the delivery of the baby is OK. After that in the morning time my husband come in and visit me: "how is your inducement?" I say, "hey, the baby already there!"

Because we don't know everything that happens here, we come here 10 years [ago], we had no carer, and everything we just don't know! I met two others of them who look after their children with disability. I can tell you about my friend. I met her because her daughter also goes to the same centre that my son goes to. So it is a very hard time.

But we are also very lucky that we are here and then my son he also improved a lot. And he has got a job now, and then he join the choir in the church. It was also very good. If he didn't come here I think it would also be not as good. In Malaysia I think he would be... I can't imagine.
