My grandpa in Malaysia just passed away :(
BOOOHOOOOO!!! T_T
My grandma called this morning at 7plus and my dad picked up the call....
I was still in bed,oblivious to what happened :(
Then a few mins later,I woke up cos I heard dad talking to my mum in a worried and sad voice....
I thought that maybe someone of our close relatives were in a accident or something....
But deep down,I had a really strange feeling that it was something to do with my grandpa,sigh :(
Then,I finally heard what I didn't want to....
My dad told my brother that my grandpa had passed away peacefully at home....
Suddenly,I felt my worst fear had came true.....
I wasn't exactly close to my grandpa,but he was one of the nicest grandpa :)
He was a man of few words but his actions says everything....
I am not pin-pointing any smokers in this post and I hope that even if they chanced upon this post,I hope they would understand....
I am not exactly a smoker 'fan',I detest some inconsiderate smokers who puffs away even when there are people behind or beside them...but of course,there are some exceptions out there too....
My grandpa had been a heavy smoker since young and he is now 70plus when he passed away,so it was hard to for him to kick that habit....
You wouldn't believe me but he was as strong as an ox and I swear he had muscles on his arm,there was really NO health problems he had except some minor ones....
He rarely gets sick,this really proves that his health can be compared to a young lad's one....
My aunt and uncle in Singapore who are both in the healthcare professions was really astonished when we visited him and my mum told them that my grandpa was as fit as a fiddle...
This was because they saw him heavily smoking and believed he must have had alot of health problems....
My grandma proudly said that he had no major health problems and rarely gets sick,she even asked him to show them his muscles,haha,how cute was she :)
So shyly,my grandpa showed both my aunt and uncle his muscles...
He had a toned and muscular body and does everything around the house,from housework,cooking,planting which was his favorite past time...
I gave him the nickname 'medical miracle',haha...
Since he had no health issues,I didn't mind him smoking surprisingly.....
Even when he smoked in the house right where I was,I just stayed there and continued with what I was doing....
You can even say that,without that familiar smoke from him,I would feel strange....
But sadly,he contracted TB which was expected as he was really a heavy smoker....
But to live up to this age for him,I consider it to be a miracle :)
I went back a week ago with my mum to visit him and grandma...
Seeing him back then really pains my heart,his usual toned muscular body was gone and was replaced by only bones :(
He couldn't really move around and couldn't talked much as he was often in pain....
He was so much stronger than my grandma back then but after he contracted TB,he was always cold and needed 3 thick layers of clothing even though it was so warm in Malaysia :(
His skin was so dry it practically looks like crocodiles/snakes' skin :(
SIGH :(
I miss him when he was so strong and healthy,talking to my mum happily with a strong voice whenever we visited him and grandma back in Malaysia :(
I miss him cooking up a storm in the kitchen whenever we were all back for a family reunion during CNY :(
I miss him asking my mum what we wanted to had for breakfast the next day so he could get up early to buy them for us in the market :(
I miss how he would always cycle around the kampong for his afternoon tea at a coffeeshop and always asked what we want to had for snacks :(
I even miss him when he shoo-ed me off from the kitchen when he was cooking,scared that I would knock something over and hurt myself in the end :(
I even miss him bickering with my grandma for some minor issues back then :(
I MISS HIM SO MUCH NOW :((((((
This coming CNY is so not gonna be the same anymore :(
