We (Maurice and I), visited Sian Si Sedi in the hospital today. According to Maurice, the doctor is giving her only six months more...and this happens to be her second month. But she's deteriorating so fast. Even now, she can't eat, and she can't even talk. I wish we had visited her earlier. :(

She tried to talk, but she couldn't. She signaled us to sing a couple of her favorite songs we used to practice singing with her during High School. And while we sang, she smiled...just like she always used to smile to encourage us during practices and performances.

And though no words were spoken, her firm grip on my hand said it all. I love you too Se, and I'll sing ALL your favorite songs, even the karaan ones if it means getting you well again. :(

Sorry for the short post, I have to study. Arrgghh

Please pray for my Sian Si

UPDATE
Last October 9,2007 at 7:24pm; I received a text:
"SHIRLEY Sian just passed away this noon, 1 plus"

The six months the doctor promised for my Sian Si was apparently an overestimate.
My Sian Si passed away even before she could hear the cd we made for her... She passes away a week after we promised we'd visit her again soon but never got the chance to go back...
I hope she was able to hear the things we said to her during her funeral, so hopefully she'll know just HOW MUCH she meant to us.
My only consolation is...the week before she died..I got to kiss my sian si goodbye...

Goodbye seh, I will never forget you...
