mommy's almost coming home! well thats what i heard from my aunt last nite(sept29th...) and wow.. so much to take in under fifteen minutes..
i was talking to my aunt in hong kong through webcam.. my aunt has cancer for the second time, final stage, limited time on earth, chemo.. seeing her just broke my heart... i missed her so much.. and she looked so weak and so sick.. she says she's feeling better, but not even comparable from the last time i've seen her in person... so i asked the dumb question.. "how are you feeling?" she struggled answering me.. and she just showed me her hands... aged.. and nails turned blueblack.. it just broke my heart seeing her like this... she was always the one who had it altogether.. and always happy..
then she asked me.. "have you been praying for me?" --i answered yes.. and she just doubted.. and asked again.. i insured her that i have [cause i have] so then she asked.. "then why isnt it working?" --i just didnt have the guts to say.. not to her.. not on webcam.. what i think i should of said.. i ended up mumbling and not answering at all.. i wasnt ready for that question.. she repeatedly asked again.. and still i didnt know how i can say it.. or anything for that matter.. i wasnt prepared..
then the conversation pretty much ended.. no one was talking.. no one knew what else to say.. then i asked where mom was.. she didnt answer me.. but she asked me.. "does your mom go to church back in canada?" i wasnt expecting that question.. and neither was i able to predict what she was going to say.. i said.. yea.. sometimes.. and thats when she said.. well, she changed a lot.. she woke up early and went to church today.. so she's not here.. i was really surprised.. and worried too.. she doesnt normally go.. so i was just surprised.. and if she was going.. something really big must be bothering her a lot.. i miss her so much. <3
God give me the wisdom to tell her the right things.. <3
