Singapore - A 64-year-old woman died two days after her 101- year-old mother in the same Singapore hospital, news reports said Monday.

The mother, Yeo Ah Lan, had been confined in the facility for two months with a skin condition.

Daughter Yeo Kui Ing, 64, had lingered in the hospital since Wednesday after an accident with a motorcycle left her with head injuries, The Straits Times said.

She had been on her way to the hospital to visit her mother.

Yeo never gained consciousness and died Saturday, two days after the older patient.

"We believe she waited until the funeral proceedings for her mother were completed before she left us," Yeo's son, Jeffrey Lee, was quoted as saying. "In the span of three days, we lost two people." (dpa)
