My grandmother was diagnose with liver cancer, and it was already in the advance stage. The doctors can't do anything to her because they worried that her body can't take it and it may even worsen the situation. All we can do is to make her as comfortable as possible, and prepared for the worse.
Ever since she was admitted to the hospital, we visited her everyday. Relatives and friends also came down to see her. I started to feel very heartbroken last Monday, because she cannot react to us anymore. Her nerve system, livers, kidney, and other parts of the body start to slow down. I even saw her tears rolling down her face. I knew that she was feeling very sad. We tried to massage her because this was the only way that we can communicate with her. We want to let her know that there are still many people who still care and concern about her.
Until yesterday, she left us. The doctor said that she left peacefully. She did not suffered much. And today, her body was cremated. This was what she wants, and we followed her instruction. She does not wants to have the wake because it was a waste of money and time, because we still need to work and study next week.
Everybody felt sad when she left us. But I think that this is a relieve for her, and I felt happy too. This is a process that everybody need to go through, the only matter is whether it happens to us early or later. We will definitely felt that something is missing in our life, but we can still remember her in our heart forever.
