Loss of a Loved One
Even though I had prepared myself for the worst, hearing about the passing of a family member is still incredibly sad. This morning, my maternal grandmother passed away due to illness. I didn't get to see her even once while she was sick, and I don't have the courage to go to her wake now that she's gone. I remember when my dog died when I was little, but this is the first time I'm facing the death of a family member. No matter how scared I am to face her passing, as a grandson, I should at least see her off on her final journey. She loved me so much and gave me everything I ever wanted, yet I don't even have the courage to send her off. I feel so useless. I'm also afraid that if her soul sees me crying too hard, she might not be able to leave. The only relief is that she's finally free from the suffering of her illness. If there's an afterlife, please let me be her grandmother to repay her love for me in this life.

The regret of not being able to see them off will burn in my heart. My grandmother was the same, I couldn't even see her one last time. When I saw her body, I couldn't bear to let go of her cold hands. I cried for almost half a year afterward, and even now, 15 years later, I can't help but shed tears when I think of her!

AuthorI actually had a chance to go to the hospital to see my grandma one last time, but my mom stopped me from going. It seems the pain really lasts a long time. But the deceased are gone, and those who are alive still have to live strong.
