Grandma is sick

My paternal grandparents had passed away since i was very young. Grandpa was gone when i was only 2, therefore i got no memories about him. My mama (granny) was only 70, and she was gone too when i was in secondary 2. She was a wonderful granny, and of course the best mother in law my mum can ever have. My maternal grandpa passed away shortly after my father's death. My poor mum, lost all her MEN within a few years. Now only left with my maternal grandmother who is now aged 93. Powerful right?

She was in good health all these while, she doesn't have any health complication like high blood pressure or heart disease etc. She loves to read newspaper everyday, simple meal could satisfied her. Last few months, her legs got swollen. It was so painful that she cried everyday. My mum was very upset about it. But at least she still have the appetite to eat. After a month plus, her leg recovered miracle. But her diarrhoea and vomiting came suddenly. Medication could not stop, and we suspect that her intestines are not functioning well anymore. She had not been eating for a week plus le... and now she had no energy at all. Just lying on her bed :( 

Zhenyu as a grandson in law teared when he saw her yesterday. It was very heart aching. Although we understand that she is so old and its natural for the olds to get sick. But somehow we just felt very sad. Brought the lil Ps to visit their great grandma too. When i told Princeton that Lao Ma is very sick, Princeton could say Lao Ma Leg very pain, must sayang Lao Ma. A toddler like him can be willing to visit lao ma, but there are people down there don't even bothered. I must SMS and remind people to come and visit their grandma or mother??? And excuse me, not because I'm free, not because i don't need to work, that's why i can always go and visit. Don't tell me you work 24/7? And if u r working so hard, earning so much money, have u ever give grandma a cent??? Oh OK, maybe yes, only during CNY $20??

I'm not trying to say i put in alot of effort in taking care of grandma. But at least let's do a minimum to pay her a visit whenever we can. NOT UNTIL funeral then appeared to do one hundred and one thing, FOR WHAT!!!!? Treasure now when she is still around, buy her some food and go and see her. Not when she had passed away then stay overnight at the funeral OR go and buy so many stuffs and burn for her! TOO LATE GENIUS!  

There are many pathetic fools down there, i dunno what are they thinking. What i can conclude is, Poor people frown for $$, Rich people also frown for $$. I still pray for my grandma, hopefully she can feel better and recover. This is a picture of my beautiful grandma when she was in her 30s.
