Came back from a NightVisit to one of my grandauntie.
Her suffering and her battle against her lung cancer has finally come to an end.
As much I didnt want to see her go, I very much preferred not wanting her to see her in pain.
Especially in all those medical machinery attached to parts of her body.
Especially on a Chinese New Year.
She has to eat and breathe through a tube.
She became partially blind.
She even has memory loss. She couldnt remember names or recognise people anymore. Even for a few seconds.
When my mother called me 2 nights ago, she said she has now passed away.
I totally went 'shit' in response.
Looking back at last year's post, 2008. August 26th.
She's been fighting it for so long.
Its good that she made it past Chinese New Year this year. It was my last time seeing her for the Chinese New Year.
Its just so ... weird.
Every year since young, going to her house for lunch on the 2nd day of Chinese New Year. She was happy, talking cheerfully and all.
Till last year, suddenly seeing her so down. So fragile. So aged. Close to a vegetable stage.
What the f.
Its painful to see her like that, I swear.
Its hurting. Damn.
It hurts so much.
It then now brings me back to 2 dates few years ago.
Eugene's / Bean's loss of his grandfather.
Squadmate Andrew's loss of his only parent. During O'levels.
I admire these people. They've gone through a difficult moment.
Nonetheless, they were strong to face it.
I'm not ready to face it myself.
I dont know if I'm even strong enough.
Its just so scary.
Now. I'm just loss for much to say anymore.
I dont know if i'm making sense.
I just want to unload all of these from my head.
Well.
I should stop now.
So much has come and go.
I want to talk to someone.
Hah.
Right.
Its been a long day.
Good night.
Farewell, 'Ng Koo Po'.
From much loves, your family and friends.
