It's not always a good start

Hai dearest Angels.....

Supposedly we start a New Year with (hopefully) a good start. But not this year. Some people i know must have a hard start.........Kiddo, do you remember Oma Ayu? (Mommy called her Ma Ayu) Your Daddy's aunty, uncle Reza's mom. Back in December 2011 she got so ill she must stayed at hospital for (maybe) a week. Later we found out she got Tumor, likely lead to Cancer, in her head, and it was pressed her brain, caused her a very very painfull headaches. Once i asked her how painfull it was she said "Unspeakable....", then she would try pulling her hair to stop the pain.

Doctor suggested to have operation to lift the Tumor to stop it pressing the brain any further. But, some family members or friends suggested to try alternative medication and other (sorry my language) b*l*s**t treatments. I was disappointed and mad, but that was your Oma Ayu's decision. She knew the consequences.

Short story, the alternatives medication didn't go well. She got worsed. And on January 1st (yup, first day in 2012, when we have a lovely time visiting Oma Sri at Bogor), your Oma got call telling that Oma Ayu must taken to the hospital right away! That evening she got hospitalized. But the good news is Oma Ayu agreed to take an operation. She was taking her baby step (read: medication) from that moment, and I see her spirit and enthusiasm to get well.

Yesterday Oma Ayu got out from hospital after 19 days. She now an outpatient. After this first thing to do is having an Oncology check-up. She is still have a long medication to take. I'm always pray for Allah SWT to give her strenght and spirit to get through this journey and to fight this Cancer she had.....Amin
