Despite her 88 years, Madam Ting Lan Kin lived an active lifestyle, taking the bus from her Woodlands Circle home to the market daily and going to Toa Payoh thrice a week to meet her friends.
That routine may well change after the retired widow met with a horrific accident on Friday at a bus stop on Woodlands Centre Road.
As she was alighting from SMRT service 913, the bus suddenly moved off and she fell. The rear wheel of the bus then rolled over her left foot, crushing it.
Doctors later had to amputate part of her foot, including the toes.
Madam Ting and her family are now worried sick that she may never walk again.
