R.I.P AMACHI

In case you might have been wondering why I have not updated any posts lately, my apologies. I just recently lost the only grandma I ever knew in my life. I was praying so hard for her to stay alive because I wanted to visit her in Sri Lanka. I even told her on the phone weeks before to stay alive for me and she told me that when God asks me to come to Him, I must go. I was told that my grandmother was proud of me and that she really loved me because I never grew up with her but I loved her so much. As for my brother, he is taking this really hard because my grandma raised him. My grandmother, who we all called Amachi, passed away at the wonderful age of 85 on Good Friday September 19, 2008. R.I.P

She came to live with my family in Canada for one year and while she was hear she enjoyed the music of Backstreet Boys and Britney Spears. She was a wonderful woman who died peacfully in her bed. It's just tough to see my mother so sad because I can only imagine the feeling of losing the woman who carried you for 9 months and struggled to take care of 5 children on her own after her husband passed away of cancer. Peace be with you Amachi. I know you are happier now in heaven with God and your loved ones. I know you will always watch over us.
