R.I.P MUM.


My mum had been battling colon cancer for close to 2.5 years. She was a fighter with strong will. When she was first diagnosed for last stage of cancer in 2010, Doctors predicted that she had less than a year to live. She fought hard and took control of her own timetable. She was able to witness the birth of two beautiful great-granddaughters during this painful yet joyful period. She also made it through two of her grandsons’ weddings in 2010 and 2012. Unfortunately, the constant pain that she was suffering had worn down her body. She finally waved her goodbye to us the day after her grandson’s wedding.

My mother passed on on 4th June 2012 at 8.48pm and was laided to rest on thursday 7th june, 2012.
I will alway cherish the memory of my mother who had make great sacrifice for her children and often depriving herself of the luxury of a good life. My father passed on when I was only three and she single handed raised my elder brother  younger sister and I.
Even manage to buy a house through her savings and loan from friends some 30 or 40 years ago at Rm18,000 which was quite a huge sum in those days. Always care for her children and she never fail to make me tea or  prepared my favourte soup for me whenever I visited her. I shall missed her love. Goodbye and rest in peace ma.

I would like to expressed my thanks to friends ,my pastor and elder who came to the wake to lend support and console me.I was surprise to see some friends whom i least expect to turn up but they did.  The one whom I was hoping would turned up did not. I felt hurt and betrayed. At least I am able to find the true color of a person from this episode.
