Ling Lee 39 years old | SMA type 2
Hi everyone,
I am Ling Lee, 39 years old and I have SMA, Type 2. My condition has not make me less of a contributing member of our society.
As the Executive Assistant to the Chairman at Dual Blessing Bhd, a Motivation Speaker, TEDx Speaker, and NLP Master Practitioner, I’ve dedicated my life to inspiring and empowering others. My journey has been blessed with incredible recognition, such as being named one of the Ten Outstanding Young Malaysians in 2016, receiving the Women Glamour Award in 2022, the Best Intelligent Figures award in 2021, and the Outstanding Leadership Excellence Award in 2021.
Living with Spinal Muscular Atrophy, I have faced and continue to face many challenges. Despite these, I remain passionate about contributing to society, sharing my story, and motivating others to overcome their own obstacles.
My heartfelt hope is to achieve physical improvement through treatment, reducing the burden on my body. I hope to handle daily tasks on my own, such as eating, using a computer, and adjusting my sitting posture independently to alleviate pain. I also hope that treatment will improve my swallowing issues and help me speak more effortlessly, especially when giving talks.
I believe that with determination, support, treatment, anything is possible. Please share my journey so that treatment is accessible to as many as possible in Malaysia.
