Letting go - its a whole chapter one has to learn in life and to do it gracefully is an art. I personally have learnt it the hard way but now I have my priorities so crystal clear that it doesn't hurt anymore. I was in middle of work and all of a sudden an old friend calls. One of those friends who has always been there although I couldn't do much for him in return. But then as I opened up with "hey! how have u been?" the voice broke in the other side. It pained. Why good people get hard times and what can we do to help them is something I keep wondering a lot. This friend of mine, sounded helpless after putting his mother in life support. Sometimes very tough situations happens.
Pain of losing parent is hard. I felt it when I signed up for ventilator for my dad. I saw it in my husband's eyes when his mom was diagnosed with cancer. Its like a part of our heart just breaks forever. Its been more than 5 years since I lost Dad... fortunately he got to meet Advik. We were there - me and Advik by his side trying to stop him from going out that day to stay and play with us but god had other plans. He left home saying will be back soon and after 4 days in ICU he couldn't make it. For me, the world came tumbling down to my feet. If not for my husband, I cant imagine living life the way am doing now. He was my dad's decision - he is taking up that role now.
