KOTA KINABALU, SABAH: Sabah’s own Sumandak (Which means Lady in Kadazandusun Ethnic Language) from Tamparuli, Tuaran, Jessica Magdelina shows off her modelling skills as she confidently takes the spotlight in front of the camera.
Jessica who suffers from end stage renal failure got her wish fulfilled by Talent Shop Sabah and Children Wish Society of Malaysia when she got to dress up, makeup and model for the cameras, which kept clicking non-stop.
“Thanks to our wish granting partner – Talent Shop Sabah, Nothing’s Gonna Stop Jessica Now To Make It Big Time With Her Infectious Smile And Cute Demeanour,” Subang Jaya based CWS Malaysia president TH Teoh said.
The 13-year-old Jessica had wished to one day become a model. Raised by a single father, she is the youngest in the family. Given her difficult social circumstances, her chances of receiving a renal transplant (the curative treatment for kidney failure) are slim.
“We are glad that we had the opportunity to grant Jessica her wish. The society continues to grant wishes to ailing children across the country, especially in Sabah and Sarawak.”
“She had a good time at the photo shoot with our volunteers Anita and Datuk Susan Chang and nurse, Sister Arlene who also joined in for some photos with her,” Teoh said.
