| So long...Aunt Nida! |
| Saturday, October 06, 2007 |
It's 5:55am. I just woke up and the first thing that greeted me this morning is a very bad news.
My Aunt Nida just passed away yesterday. I am not really sure what cause her death but from what I can remember, she has been undergoing the process of dialysis for quite some time already. Though I really had many memories of her to ponder, the thought of her always giving me chocolates when Popcy and I would visit their place will forever linger in my mind. My Uncle Frank was the first one to passed away about 5 years ago. At last, Aunt Nida is now reunited with Uncle Frank in God's Kingdom.
I know this hurts Papa a lot. I can see from his eyes that he cried all night. But what really made me had goosebumps is when he said "Sana ako na lang ang nauna." I told him, "Wag naman ganyan 'Pa." "Ang bata pa ang Auntie Nida mo, 60 lang. Ako 77 na."
I asked him when are we going to Aunt Nida's wake but he refused. Baka hindi nya daw makayanan at bumigay sya. He said that in a very trembling voice. But after so much convincing, (IMPOSING, I mean) we will go there on Tuesday for Aunt's memorial services. In retrospect, Papa and Ate were supposed to visit Aunt Nida last Friday. But for some reason, hindi sila natuloy. The next thing we know, Aunt died last night, Saturday. What a turn of events. Tignan mo nga naman ang pagkakataon... Me? I am still in the state of shock. In my 25 years of existence, ngaun ko lang na-experience ung ganitong may namatayan. My other brother, and grandpaprents died when I was still a toddler so I didn't really had to bear the emotional battle. But now that I am a grown-up, I am not sure if I can strongly handle situations like this.
Unto God, the Lord belong the issues of death. ---Psalm 68:20
P.S.
I was supposed to post wedding updates and fun stories today. But in respect to Aunt Nida's death, I will have a mourning-wordless Sunday.
