....... | Wednesday, February 20, 2008
On Monday, while at work,i received a call......
my sister called me up. she was crying. As i was answering her call, i was looking at my pc....messages pop up. Messages from my brother...... they were both informing me the same thing....
My Aunt - My Ah Ma - has passed away.......
It did not hit me then....i was just shocked.....i informed my collegueas i had to go.....my aunt just passed away......... i was just....shocked & blur......
My Aunt - who was practically like my mom, took care of us ( me n my siblings) when we were young. I grew up with my cousins - her kids.
She is the best mother anyone could ever asked for. An even more superb aunt anyone could possible get. I remember how as a lil girl, i will follow her to the market in the morning. Sitting behind her on that old grandfather bicycle. And how she would always buy us lil rabbit candies. our favourites
It saddens me........my aunt is no longer here.
She died of liver failure.... She was diagnosed with Liver Cancer just a few months ago....right after i return from the ship...it really wasnt that long ago......
She came to visit us on the 2nd day of CNY - it was very obvious she was very tired and yet she had wanted to come to visit us, just like how she would every year. That night, we went over to her house....i listened to her and my mom chit chatting....she sounded so alert and healthy. She looked like she is on the road to recovery.... i can not imagine that this wonderful lady is now gone.......
A part of me died. Its hard for me and my family too.....we were all very close. She was very close with my mom. The both of them would always just sit together and chit chat non stop..hehehe sisters! ^_^
It saddens me alot....she has not even see me get married....or see my brother or sister have kids...... It saddens me that she is just not here anymore........she is gone.......forever...
As i look at her in her coffin this morning, i kept seeing her wake up....her eyes would open....and she'll most probably ask me...have i eaten ?? how am i ?? i look so nice today......etc
i guess i will never ever hear that again...... i guess i will never be able to run into her house and call out loud " Ah Ma, we are here! " not being able to give her a hug or a kiss..... and rub her hands........
My Ah Ma is not here anymore.
We buried her today.
My Aunt - a lady who has dedicated her entire life to her family and her children and her grandchildren. An exceptionally extraordinary lady..... A wonderful Aunt - a Great Mother - a Loving Grandma I will always remember and treasure all the memories of her that i have and that we've shared...
Always treasure the people around you. Especially your parents......your brothers and sisters....... you never know what will happen tomorrow........ Always be a good son/daughter to your parents Always be there for your brothers & sisters Nothing is ever more important that that of your Family
Do not wait until they are gone to realised just how much they matter to you and how much you love them......
