The young mother who lost her three children in a tragic hornet attack here early last month intends to bravely soldier on.

For a start, 29-year-old Tan Wan Chew wants to have more children.

"I will be strong to carry on with my life. I wish to have more children.

"I am having sleepless nights thinking about my children. I wonder if I could have done more to save them," she said, adding that she had dreamed about her children telling her to be strong.

Recalling the day of the incident in between sobs, Tan said a swarm of hornets attacked them minutes after they had arrived at a spot near a pond in Sungai Moyan.

She said she had shouted and asked her children - Chen Sze Ting, eight, Tze Ying, six and Chun Jie, three - and her brother Lan Chia, 11, to run.

While her brother survived the attack, Tan fell into a coma while being treated at the Sarawak General Hospital and had to fight for her life in its intensive care unit for about three weeks.

After being hospitalised for 52 days, she was finally discharged on Tuesday.

Tan and her husband Chen Tian Poh are now staying with his parents at their house in Capital Garden.

They will not go back to their own home at the Sungai Moyan flats in Batu Kawa.

"Although the wounds from the hornet stings are healing gradually, I am still suffering from the terrible itch of the skin," she told reporters after returning to Sungai Moyan flats briefly to thank her neighbour Frankie Then.

Then was the first person to come to their aid and had rushed Tan, her children and brother to the hospital after the attack.

Tan said she was also thankful to all well-wishers, many of whom were unknown to her family, who had donated money and encouraged her during this difficult time.
