Peace on earth

The grandmother died. Yesterday.

Exactly one year and one day after my mum's bypass surgery.

I won't pretend to be sorry. I'm just relieved.

I understand it might be hard for my dad. After all, no matter what I thought of the woman, at the end of the day, she was still his mother.

But now my parents can finally start living their lives. Finally.

Peace shall now hopefully prevail back in their house. And hopefully, the next time I see them, they won't look as aged as the last few times. 

Until next time,

Cheers!!!

  2. It's weird but I want to say congratulations. Never thought I will say that on anyone's death. Well may be Osama but not someone's grandmother.

  5. :) I know...it's weird, isn't it? But like I said...I can't pretend to be upset because I am not. And yeah, I don't think I ever wanted anyone dead ever...except her.

  6. Scribby, honestly...I'm not feeling bad. I didn't even shed a tear whereas back in 2006, when my mum called me to tell me her father died, I was sobbing and felt sad for days. This time I am truly relieved. :)

  14. Not sure she knows what regret it Jake...but she's looking up all right. In fact, it took a lot of self-control on my part when on FB a cousin commented that she is looking down on all of us to comment on that with  'don't you mean looking up'...but if I do, my parents are going to cop some flak! :P
