My Mum Passed Away

My mum who was attacked by stroke since September 8th 2009 passed away on Saturday, January 16th 2010.

She was 82 years old.

I do not believe in second world or life after death, but for the last few days I felt deep grieve when I am sitting in family hall and watching things that are related to her; the sofa cover, the leather incline chair that she has been using, the blanket she did for us ... many things.

Many say live goes on, sure that is, just that the feeling someone I have been staying with for last 16 years is now gone and the sadness facing this fact is unbearable.

One of my friends told me it took him 2 years to accept the fact that his dad is gone and for him to be normalized, well 2 years is a bit long for me.

I hope I can walk out from this grieve soon.

I talked to my sister who took care of my mum most of the time, about my thoughts to write down the experience and findings we have learned through the 4 months plus and put it on a log as sharings to others in the world who might need it. She thought it is a good idea and I shall take it up soon.

Hi
I am proud of having a friend like you who despite in deep grieve care enough to have the thought of sharing the experience with whoever might need it.

Most importantly, your mum will be very proud of you, a son who she brought up & with a caring heart.
