Well, looks like my mummy has lost another relative this year. One of her closer cousins has passed on due to illness.

I am pretty worried for my mum as one by one her older relatives left her. She has lost another soulmate whom she could seek advice from especially when this person has been taking care of her, most concern about her well being since young.

Guess that is part and parcel of old age. We have to face the reality that our friends and relatives have to leave us at some point of time in our life journeys. Like what i said to her last night, she has less sufferings as compared to her other counterparts. From the time she was diagnosed till her end, it was not a very long period of time. We should be glad that the disease does not torment her for long period of time. She was alright till one day before her death.

i am on night shift these two nights. Most probably will arrange to send her off her final journey on my off days which means i have to rearrange my schedule for that week. Oops... we shall see how.
