The assortment of old medical chits and cards that you see in this picture range from 1954 to the 60s. My late mother had, like many home-makers of her time, dutifully kept all medical documents - you know, "Who knows when I am told to produce this chit or that card" kind of concern. Afterall she's the only one who took charge of everybody's medical records in the family. The items pictured here are from: KK, School Health Service, City Health Office, Municipal Health Office and TanTockSeng Hospital TB Control Unit. The various conditions range from: Poliomyelitis vaccination, Anti-Dipthearia immunization, BCG Test and Vaccination, and Anti Whooping Cough immunization. I think I'll continue to keep them - you know, who knows when I'm told to produce this chit or that card. Haha, no lahh, I'll continue to keep them because of the memories attached to them. Afterall, my family's names are written on them
