Ms Siti came to Singapore in 2010 from Indonesia and has worked at Ms Zheng's household for five and a half years.When Ms Zheng's illness hit, Ms Siti worked tirelessly to help her through her rehabilitation, which would often take up to seven or eight hours a day.Ms Zheng said that when she feels the pain during her arm exercises, Ms Siti would encourage her, saying: "Ma'am, one day, you will be better. You have to be strong to face it, I'll help you."Three months after her operation, Ms Zheng woke up and was pleasantly surprised to find that she could rotate her neck. Soon after, she regained movement in her left hand, her facial muscles returned to normal and the stiffness in her back disappeared.Ms Zheng was so overjoyed that she wanted to give Ms Siti a cash reward. But Ms Siti rejected it, saying that it was her responsibilty to take care of her and that she was not doing it for the money.
