Visited my fren's mum this afternoon after hearing news that she has taken a turn for the worse last night.
battling colon cancer for 3 years, she has almost reached the end of the road as my fren and his sister stay vigilant by her side.
But what caught me off-guard was how different auntie looked.
she looked nothing like the lady I once knew when I visited my fren in the past (since sec sch)
She now looks like any other patients, bedridden, sunken and shriveled - a lost page in my memory.
Bringing tea for my friend and her sister, I eventually bade farewell to auntie,
Lost to the world in that morphine-induced bliss.
