“It was only after my parents left, and I breastfed her for the first time that she suddenly used her right stump to push my breast away. It was so strong! I was shocked because I had no idea her right stump would be so strong. I looked at the baby in my arms and broke down crying. I just cried and cried and cried,” she said.

Her infant daughter’s unexpected strength, however, gave Norfasarie the resolve she needed. “From that day onward, I decided I would not cry, especially not in front of Moza. I would bring her up as a normal child,” she said.

And that’s what Norfasarie and her husband, Singaporean footballer Baihakki Khaizan did. “There were a lot of things she couldn’t do, such as crawling. Even when she was learning to walk, whenever she fell, she didn’t have two hands to break her fall and would have a bump on her head. Despite all these, we just treated her like our firstborn,” Norfasarie shared.

“She wanted to learn swimming, ballet, piano, violin and guitar, so we let her try them all. Today, she swims and plays the piano very well using her left hand to play the melody and right stump to play the chords. She is a very confident girl,” said Norfasarie.

Moza grew so much in strength and resilience that this year, at only 11 years old, her mother decided to teach her the ropes of running a business, and jointly launch Myla Moza, a small accessories brand, with her.
