Just heard from sis earlier that my auntie, whom was in the last stage of cancer, passed away around midnite this morning.
I feel sad coz I cun even go to her wake or send her off coz my wedding is just about 2 months away.
I feel very sad coz her husband just passed away last year, and her elder daughter quite a few years back. She got her Singapore citizenship and finally had her own flat a few years ago but she got no time to enjoy it.
She was a close relative of our family, especially to my mum. She was diagnosed with tongue cancer this year when she visited the doctor b4 she planned to go on a holiday. Of coz she din get to go afterall coz an operation followed as its quite serious by then and then she had to undergo chemo threatment. Heard from dad that her tongue problem (got a hole at the side) had been around for 3-4 years but she ignored it, thinking it was just some ulcers. By the time it was discovered, it was probably too late but we had thought she would be fine after the operation. Unfortunately, her cancer cells had already spread to the last stage.
Some time ago she was admitted to the hospital coz she felt giddy at home. Since the operation and chemo treatment, she wasn't able to consume food and became very thin and frail. Just days ago, heard my mum saying she cun even close her mouth or talk. I think they were expecting the worse but we din know it would be that soon. Probably its better for her as she would not live to suffer anymore.
My sis mentioned her pet hamster died just 2 days ago and my auntie had liked it quite alot. Perhaps its a bad omen...
Rest in peace auntie...
