Yeo Whee Jim won a coveted government scholarship, entered the civil service and lived the Singapore dream. In 2013, he lost his wife to breast cancer, leaving him a single father. An ALS diagnosis arrived in 2023 giving him two to five years left. He has since published a photo book and set up a trust fund at Community Foundation Singapore for underprivileged young caregivers.
