I would like to seek everyone opinions & comments about inconsiderate smoker neighbour:
On 8 dec 2007, we received our second baby girl. She has pair of big eyes, she
look cute and adorable. Our family was full of delight to welcome her arrived to
this world.
Unfortunately, our nightmare was begin one week before her full month. She was
diagnose with severe heart problem by doctor when we notice she could not able
to suck milk and cry loud. Her face change color and look very bad.
She was undergo first operation on her first full month. 9 month and 5 days, we
undergo the tougher times that we never met. In and out of Kkh hospital daily.
Total having 3 times of hearts surgery.
This really let us think back that what cause our baby has heart problem? Both
of us, do not have past history of heart problem before nor our elder
genaration. What is the cause?
After we check the information which obtain from internet that may be
enviromental factors such as pollution play a huge role in this disease/defect.
We live at High floor of HDB Flat. There will no be any serious air pollution.
After our analysis the issue, we notice that our downstair neighbour is a
serious smoker. He almost smoke every night in his room which we can easily
smell it from our house. However, we do not really bother that the second hand
cigarette smell will hurt a lot to pregnancy woman.
During my wife's pregnancy period, she alway can smell cigarette smell every
night from our room. When I want to make complaint about it, she just don't want
to make things worse as he is our neighbour. She is kind and understanding.
After I think over and over again. I feel very angry. 3 years pass, our baby
girl finally overcome all the tough times and she on nursery now. However, she
still on following up appointment with Hospital.
I have rise up the issue to neighbour before but he just ignore my words.
In my case, if I want to issue a sue to downstair neighbour, how many percent of
success to win the case? It mabe a rare case
My wife do not want to make some much trouble, should I let the matters rest? . In this case, how can I make a complaint to this smoker neighbour? I believe that everyone also do not want to put their own health in risk and accept take in second hand cigarette smell.
Thank you.

This story happen to you or who?
Anyway I think its difficult to prove that the baby have heart disease because of the smoker neghbiour..
It may be difficult to prove but as a common sign that take in second hand cigarette smell will very bad to a pregnancy woman.
Want good to your unborn baby, better not smoke or take in second hand cigarette during pregnancy. right??
