<!-- START OF : div id="storytext"--><!-- more than 4 paragraphs -->Five-year-old Yehia thought he had lost his left eye after he ran smack into a display hook at a hypermart last Friday.
With blood streaming down, he cried to his mum: 'Mummy, please give me back my eye.'
Fortunately for the boy, his eye did not appear to have been damaged, although he required 11 stitches to his eyelid.
His mother, who wished to be known only as Madam A.K., 39, said: 'I was horrified when I saw so much blood running down.'
The family is from Egypt and has been living in Singapore for the past two years.
She said the family was shopping at Giant IMM in Jurong East, and Yehia had run towards her after going to the toilet.
That was when the 1m-tall boy ran into the display hook in the pet food section.
His brother Seif, 11, and a maid were trailing behind him. Seif said a customer helped remove the small hook from Yehia's eyelid.
Madam A.K. said: 'I kept telling the staff I wanted an ambulance called. But they told me, 'No, it's okay, just take him to a clinic'. '
She then hailed a taxi to the National University Hospital.
When The Sunday Times visited the family at the hospital yesterday, Yehia was awake.
There appeared to be no damage to the eye, said his mother. The boy will be discharged today.
A spokesman for Giant said last night that staff who were present had immediately gone to the boy's aid. A duty manager, on being alerted, went there too.
Said the spokesman: 'When she arrived and saw the injured boy, she repeatedly tried to speak to the mother to suggest calling for an ambulance.
'But she did not respond as she was busy talking on the mobile phone. The mother rushed off with the boy as soon as she finished the call. 'This accident was most unfortunate. We will be following up with the family to render further assistance.'

In Egypt is too hot to run around cause it is like an desert, but in Singapore is different. We have big Giant hypermart and it is all air-condition.

So he ran like he never ran before,"Run forrest run!" So he kept on running, but accident happens.

"Life is like a box of chocolate, you never know what you are gonna get!"

I can understand why a child would like to run, but what is the mother there for? Too busy talking on the phone to care for the child she brought along and blame everyone else except herself when the child injures himself in a supermarket? The supermarket is not a playground and their first responsibility is not be a replacement mother for the child.

The mother should instead be ashamed of herself for lacking in her responsibility towards her child and for causing this incident to happen in the supermarket. They have already gone out of their way to care for her child while the mother is on the phone.
