Mama (my grandma) has been admitted to the hospital, again. Her condition has deteriorated and she is not getting better. Went back to Keningau to see her yesterday. She managed a few words and a smile for me. But she can barely move. So frail, so weak.
I held her hand for a long time while she rested. Her hand looks frail and small. But even so, I will always remember it as the hand that used to care for me. The hand that used to play 'aeroplanes' with the spoon when she fed me as a toddler ..and that wiped the tears off my face when I cried over a silly tiff with my siblings..The hand that held mine, comforted me and made me feel safe.
It hurts to see her suffer. It hurts to see her so helpless. It hurts that I can't do anything to help her.
