when their time comes...

I was really saddened by a text message of a close friend. Her mom just died due to leukemia.

All of a sudden, i had flashbacks of the time when my ever loving maternal grand mom died 9 years ago. She was also diagnosed of this cancer of the blood. Only a month before when we learned about her condition. she was 60 but still very jolly and strong. we never thought it will be our last christmas with her. she stayed with us. we rushed her to the hospital when she's in pain. we called all our friends to donate blood for her. we saw how doctors tried to revived her body. everything happened so fast. the last thing we knew we were crying over her cold body with tears in her eyes.

It was very painful for us [until now i still remember the feeling]. and she knows how much we love her. maybe that's why she decided to show up in our dreams with all smile. letting us know that she's ok. she is happier now. resting in peace. no more pains.

"People do not die for us immediately, but remain bathed in a sort of aura of life which bears no relation to true immortality but through which they continue to occupy our thoughts in the same way as when they were alive. It is as though they were traveling abroad." ~Marcel Proust


To Denver, my condolences to you and your family. May you have the courage and strength to accept the reality. i know its painful. dito lang kame. hugs! hugs! hugs!
