There was a live episode o E.R. juz now after maghrib. Two beds in front o gran, suddenly a whole grp o nurses n doctors came swarming round. Curtains closed (yet we cld c coz no curtain at d head) n start cpr. Machines hummed n beeped. Fervently n almost mechanically, they pumped her chest. They must have carried on for ard 30 mins. But it was her time to go. It was depressing. Even as an outsider, it was depressing to watch someone pass on right b4 ur eyes. It must have been harder for her family members. Then we got to know (coz mom asked d neighbouring beds) tat d lady didnt have any immediate family members. Isnt tat juz so sad?
I pray tat God give us strength to look after grandma n give grandma back her health. It's hard to c her bedridden, sad to c she dun recognize her own chn n depressing to c her so dazed n unable to speak.
p.s. can u wipe these tears fr my eyes? can i have a hug to give me strength in these trying days? thx for d replies... gd to know u r ard to lend me strength.
