Tun Dr Mahathir Remains In Stable Condition

KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 29 (Bernama) -- Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad remains in stable condition and continues to receive treatment at the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) of the National Heart Institute (IJN) here following a wound debridement surgery a week ago.
The former prime minister's special officer, Sufi Yusoff, told Bernama Dr Mahathir's condition was stable, just as he had been yesterday.
Dr Mahathir's daughter, Datin Paduka Marina, had written in her blogsite that her father had had pudding, ice-cream, yoghurt and hot Milo for dinner last night.
She said the meal was high in calories but the doctor encourages it to enable Dr Mahathir build up his strength.
Dr Mahathir, 81, underwent the wound debridement surgery last Saturday, conducted by the same team of surgeons who had performed his second coronary bypass surgery on Sept 4.
The former prime minister had undergone his first coronary bypass operation at the Kuala Lumpur Hospital in 1989.
