A glimpse into a mother’s struggles and triumphs in raising her autistic son touched the hearts of audiences at the play Ocean of Star, performed at Gleneagles Hospital Penang in George Town, Penang.

Co-organised and sponsored by the hospital, the play was presented by Penang Shine Like Stars Association (PLSA) – a centre for children with special needs.
