hope springs

I touched your hand,
I kissed your forehead,
I said "Nenek, ni adik ni, nek ok tak?"
Ma said, "Mak, esok Jwa nk periksa. doakan dia eh Mak,"
and you,
lifted your eyebrows.
"Mak sakit ye Mak?"
you nodded.
a few minutes after, no more nods or eyebrow lifts.
yet, Alhamdulillah.



it might not mean anything to some people, but to me, it meant everything. you responded. you hear us. suddenly, there's hope again. thank you Ya Allah.

nashrah, i know exactly how you feel. and i know how much an eyebrow lift means. i went through the same thing a few months back when my grandma got struck by a stroke, my aunt diagnosed with cancer and my uncle passed away.

the best you can do is pray for her, be by her side and encourage her. alhamdulillah, both my aunt and my grandma is recovering even though the doctors said there were no hope.

hang in there. i'm praying for your grandma too. with a granddaughter like you, she'll definitely get better soon :)
