Prayer played an instrumental role in the recovery of young Frederick Yeo from cancer, according to his parents, former Singapore Foreign Minister George Yeo and his wife Jennifer Yeo.
In George Yeo’s recently released book, Series Two, George Yeo: Musings, he recounted how Fred was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia around 2004, when he was three-and-a-half years old.
At the time, Fred’s grandmother, Mary, the mother of Jennifer Yeo, noticed that Fred was hobbling from a sharp pain in his right ankle.
