Life at a second chance... treasure it while u can!

"Emak PD" - as I've alwiz referred her to.. is my mom in law. 1st time I met her was way back in 1998, when I was introduced to the fmly. 1st impression?? mmm... she's very "relax la beb!" punya type. tak suka "kan chong2" for no reasons tp klu ktorg lmbt "check in" ke dapur... mmm... sendri mau ingat lah! ha ha ha!! her most popular 'kitchen clause' - "ari ni nak masak apo???'

Yg plg aku respect kat mak pd is that dia 'flow' jer ngn aper yg ktorg plan nk buat or msk or g jenjalan or whatever! Mcm this mother's day celeb yg ktorg buat as a suprise for her in 2008. Dia relax jer.. suruh tiup lilin, dia tiup yo.. "ikut dek ekau yo lah!".. bak kata org negri 9. She's so much diff from my own mom dri segi nie....


well... life has its up & down! It's a fact of life which we could never be able to resist or even predict. Mak pd had a minor stroke last year in June. 22nd klu aku tak silap. Since then, life takes a diff turn. her health deteriorates as time passes by!

Sepanjang these 8 months.. aku realise something yg aku tak perasan selama nie! How deep is the love of these 2 gentlemen below to emak. I saw how my love took care of his mom & carried her dengan tulang 4 kerat dia to the toilet, etc. There were tears in his eyes but at the same time he's encouraging her to pave her way thru' this!
My younger brother in law took his time off to take care of mak. Everytime ktorg blk kg- he'll up date us on mak's progress with the physio teraphy, appetite,etc. However, we noticed that for the past few months.. things doesn't look any better.. She had lost her appetite.. thus, causing her to have less energy.. Less energy means less focus on everything around her...


But remember, there's alwiz light at the end of a tunnel!! Last weekend ktorg blk kg. Emak looked totally different! Berselera sgt dia makan, siap tmbh2 lg & she took the food yg dia nak sendri! She even grumbled to me bla aku tak bungkus2 lg makanan nak bawak blk kl! biler dia ngomel cam tu... terus aku ngn adik ipar aku look at each other & kata.. " this is emak kiter yg dulu!!!' Alhamdulillah! welcome back mak... we've been missing you for so long!!!
Yup... we saw a life that was given a second chance & we'll definitely treasure it!!
