Today is one hell of a day.
I need someone to talk to sooo badly .
You know, the worst thing that could ever happen is to
accompany a friend for a cancer checkup,
And found out that he has those symtoms .
XIANG !
You better eat those meds and get well soon.
Although that day we did joked about eating your curry kuey.
2ndly,
I just came back from ,
YET-ANOTHER-SONG-KA .
I can't remember this is the number Xth funeral I went to this year.
Definitely more than 10 .
If you break it down ,
it's like ..
Every month , there's people dying .
The thought of this scared the shit out of me !
Just now the funeral I attended is,
my mum's cousin's ( let's call him HB) .
He had Hepatitis B .
A viral liver disease that may be acute or chronic,
and can be life-threatening.
Symptoms include fever, malaise, fatigue, jaundice,
abdominal tenderness, and elevated liver enzymes.
Some individuals are chronic asymptomatic carriers;
chronic hepatitis B may result in liver cirrhosis and/or cancer.
Buay tah han doctor terms . -_-;
When HB's family found out about it,
they went to look for cures .
They went to all hospitals that existed in Singapore,
but to no avail .
Cos' it's already the last stage.
One day they received a call from one of the hospitals,
saying there might be cure for it .
But they would have to travel to China.
So they flew there .
However, when the Supposed-To-Be-Pro-Doctor sees the situation,
he IMMEDIATELY says there's no cure already .
The most : 2 more weeks .
The family wanted to stay in China , to search for cures.
But HB was devastated ,
and he wanted to come back home .
Probably know there's no much time left .
It's better to die in your home rather than an alien place .
*I was chatting with Xiang while typing this post .
He told me not to use the word alien ,
cos' very Singaporean like that.
He gave words like unfamiliar , unacquainted .
Machiam walking thesaurus .
BUT I DON'T CARE !
ALIEN is my word , my style .
LOL*
Ok back to topic ,
He died 2 days later .
When my mum received the call she sobbed .
Cos' 2 weeks still got time to prepare for the worst ma .
Didn't know it'll be so fast .
HB's mum , now 92 years old ..
Cried till . ..
It's really terrible to see a white-haired sending a black-haired off .
I wasn't really attached to HB ,
so I actually had no feel .
But when I see HB's mum crying ,
my tears dropped immediately.
And I really mean immediately .
When you see those drama ,
maybe the female or male leads are crying,
you'd probably think
" what the hell , cry till so fake so ugly . "
But when you see a little kid crying when he lost his way ,
or an elderly crying when her son beats / scold her ,
you will feel sorry for the person ..
What a heart wrenching scene ,
and your tear just dropped .
Willingly or Unwillingly ,
it drops .
Right ?
Exactly , the same scene .
And this wasn't the 1st time I see her crying .
A few other times .
Once at hospital,
her younger sis , my mum's mum , my grandma .
She was so weak that the doctor said she only have less than a month left .
She made it through though , now staying with my 7th uncle . :)
Anyway during that period ,
our ward was flooded with so many people .
If I say more than 50 ,
will you believe me ?
My mum has 12 siblings .
If let's say one sibling have an average of 2 kids ,
one family have 4 people .
13 families : 52 .
And I'm only saying average .
Got some have 3 - 5 childrens .
Plus the grandchildren .
LOL .
Don't know how to count .
When we were about to go home on that day ,
she held on to my grandma's hand and say :
我不想离开, 我想陪她 .
Wa .. I jitao cry immediately .
Ok la not cry , but my tears dropped .
Really heartache .
Another time was sending my 2nd uncle off .
Means my grandma's 2nd child .
HB's mum was there too .
She sent alot of black-haired people off .
Must be tough on her .
92 years old already , shouldn't be worrying about all these stuff.
Ok I link till too far .
So anyway just now at the funeral ,
my mum was talking to HB's siblings .
Let's call her SIS .
SIS : I went to his room to bring him breakfast ,
he seemed like he wanted to say something to me ..
But he has no energy at all .
His tongue twisted , trying to speak ..
his eyebrows furrowed .
And then he left .
His eyed didn't closed completely .
I have to close it for him .
Mum ( with tears ) : that must be hard for you ,
to witness the death .
SIS : I told him to not worry bout mum ,
Cos' I'll take care of her .
I asked him to just enjoy his life there ,
to walk his very own path ,
to not worry bout things up here .
Mum : why very own path ?
SIS : Cos' his wife has been controlling him as if he's a dog .
No friends , no outings ,
she didn't even allow him to pass money to mother . ( HB's mum )
Mum : What a horrible daughter-in-law ..
And they started gossiping .
I walked away cos' the main point ,
like I always say , the 重点 ,
I already know .
Think they continued gossiping about the daughter-in-law .
So anyway I went to find my dad.
He eating 瓜子 !
LOL !
I accompany him eat 瓜子 ,
but he must pluck for me ..
I think we ate for an hour plus,
while waiting mum to enjoy her gossiping .
Buay tah han .
On way home,
she told us her gossips.
I'm too tired to type ,
will talk bout it tomorrow :)
