HAPPY MOTHERS' DAY!
and also to all Mother-To-Be!!
every mother's day we'll go out for a meal. but this year celebration is slightly different. in fact i think it's the first time.
this year when we asked her where she want to eat out, she just shook her head and say "dont want la".
well, you see... grandfather suffered stroke a couple months back. he cant talk, cant control his bowel movements, have to be tube feed and he's paralyse on the right side. since his hospitalization till discharge, mother have been diligently going over to take care of him every night without fail.
and it didn't help that grandmother mental health seems to be on the roller coaster ride. sometimes she cant recognize anyone and just "hahahahhahahaahaha" at that person. nowadays, aunt have to hid the house key. once she even said my dad is a indian stranger!
last night, mother cooked a fiery concoction of hainanese chicken curry, accompanied with plain rice, french loaf and prata! and to share the love around, i baked a heart shaped durain cake. of course with the help of mummy catherine!
it's also a kudos to my aunt who have been living and taking care of them since many many many years ago, especially more when grandparents health start to deteriorate.
it a cycle eh.. when we were born, our parents take care of us. and now that they are old, we take care of them...
life is like a ferris wheel eh?
