New car ..2015
It was very inconvenient without a car then. So, we looked around for a used car which was not easy to buy with reasonable price...At the end we decided to buy a new one on 2nd March and it took only 2 days to have all documents n car ready for us,the two old folks.Thanks to the friendly,helpful and caring young salesperson, who tried to get us the best deal.As he knew we retired persons could only afford to buy small car.
At last we could drive the new small car to do marketing ,shopping and attending to urgent matters .

IZUZU Big Horn (2013 May -2015 May)
We bought over this vehicle IZUZU Big Horn 6886 from my brother in May 2013.
It was my other half's idea to buy this big vehicle of 3.1 cc...In his opinion, his son who had graduated from auto mobile college could gain more experience and knowledge on diesel engine vehicles.
Well, we could have done the car ownership transfer during that period,but due to my sister in law's request ,we delayed the transfer. So, after sometime, she gave up the idea of taking back the car registered number and by that time we delayed the transfer of car ownership due to certain reasons.
In 2015 January someone bought over it after a test-drive. He paid (not personally to us ) but never mentioned about when to do the transfer of name etc...So,this dragged on for few months until this month..from 18th to 22nd May we took the trouble to contact the driver (new owner's worker) that we need to bring he vehicle to Puspakom for a check (part of the procedure)..Next action was to bring the original owner(ie my brother) to the relevant department for thumb print and signature .(new and revised rule) to certify ownership of the vehicle. We did that on 25th May and the transfer of car ownership was finally done on 26th May! Both of us really feel so relieved that this problem was solved finally.

On the day18th May ...
I arrived at my brother's house in the morning of 18th May 2014. The funeral service of my late mother would be held in the afternoon...So, when l entered my late mother's bedroom and there l saw a butterfly on the wall,above the bed....Nobody in the house seem to notice until l showed them this moderate sized butterfly on the wall..(see pic)
When we were busy getting ready for the prayer service...in the sitting room next to my late mother's bedroom,the butterfly flew out of the room and flew around us for a while...
After everything was over, it was already in the evening.The butterfly was also nowhere to be seen...
picture below shows the funeral service..(updated with pictures..2/6/15)

A Day to remember ....
The morning of 16th May 2014......the day my 2nd brother and l should not forget !
On 15th May ...
After my late mother was sent to the ICU, all family members were not allowed to see her until few hours later...at night around 8 pm my husband and I were asked to go in...to listen to doctor's briefing on her case. I was able to touch her arm and whisper (in my heart) to her...千言万语 ！with mixed feelings ...fear of losing her,sadness..I knew l could not open my mouth to talk...I would rather leave the chance to my brother whom she loved n trusted ...I did call my brother if he wanted to come over but he said the next day then...Well, he went to see her n talked to her then...guess he never expected that was the last she could hear his voice !! He was not even at her side...An hour later,doctor called him to announce her death at 9.20 am. She had passed her last birthday the night in the ICU at the age of 89 !
I don't think I can forget all these episodes...I adore her being a courageous strong minded woman...
Though she had her temper and was harsh on us children sometimes..it was her character..Now we are grown ups and being a mother ,we should understand why she reacted that way in the past...Stress is the cause...
Anyway, it is a year since she departed...She will be fondly and dearly missed by us her children,esp the sons and me ,the closest daughter...Mother, R.I.P

In Loving Memory of a loved one
16th May 2015 Saturday (M'sia Time)
Time passes so swiftly and l realize it has been One year since my late mom passed away on this day last year (2014). She left us so suddenly in less than 2 days...to be exact one and a half day....And she was in better health than in the previous years...To my understanding she always expressed frustrations...
Every year,we spent time with her during her birthdays...but last year we missed that chance because she was in ICU then..Only a lady doctor n nurse to say Happy Birthday to her !! what an irony.
So, she passed away the next day...16th May 2014 ....at the age of 89 !
We miss you,mother greatly and fondly....R.I.P ....we will always remember your lovely and sweet smiles..

2015 May 15th...(M'sia time)
Today is a special day to remember...
Last year (2014) today,my late dear mother was in the hospital ward and was transferred to ICU late evening that day.
Why I am mentioning this is because she was spending her last birthday in the ICU, semi-conscious !! Oh,forgot to mention,she was 89 yrs old then ....(the picture above was taken in 2013 !)
Only the lady doctor n the nurse to wish her "Happy Birthday" Not her beloved son and family including me,the closest daughter...I hate to remember this because it hurts !
Today l can only send flowers to her in Heaven ! (2015 May 15th)

Remembering my late beloved mother...14th-16th May 2014
14th May 2015 Thursday
14th May 2014 !
That was the last day that l was accompanying and be the care taker of my late mother at her house.(day time)..(note: l helped my 2nd brother to share the duty of taking care of her..be it at their house or at the ward..the many times she had been admitted to hospital.)
The task of talking to her,bathing her,seeing her take her own meals,taking naps,holding her hands,giving her a bit of massage , etc etc was getting easier..l felt quite relieved then..And l told myself l would spend more time with her from then on...
In the night at 10.30 pm, l was told she was sent to emergency ward because she had difficulty in breathing...She was in a hysterical state then,restless, sweating...I regretted l went to check on her too late...1.00 am...I managed to calm her by talking n giving her moral support...Yes,soon she fell into sound sleep...So, my brother and sister in law( thanks to both of them) were taking care of her till the the morning of 15th May...she was admitted to 3rd Ward...I took over the duty to accompany her till evening when she started to show restlessness again...Dr Phang,a young lady doctor ,new to us,never understand my mother's cases..and giving her no chance to try calm down..(It was too bad and unlucky really to be this Doc's patient). This Doc insisted my mother should go into ICU !! My mother was still shouting why she was being pressed down for the jabs etc ! She was panic we knew,wanted us to stop them...Oh God...it was the most painful moment for us the son n daughter to make the decision and to hear her shouting behind the curtains! very inhuman ! We had no power to do anything though l knew this was not the proper process in forcing a patient who was still conscious ,only restless, to be admitted to ICU !
My heart is still painful when l recall this episode on this day..15th May 2014
I managed to see her at 7 pm - 8 pm the same night...semi conscious..I only talked to her in my heart,touched her arm...Because l didn't want to disturb her semi conscious mind...
Coincidentally, 15th May 2014 was my late mother's Birthday ! We were too busy and panic on her sudden illness that all of us forgot about this special day ! But the good n observant lady Dr in ICU always talking to her WISHED her Happy Birthday instead...
16th May 2014 Saturday morning
My brother who loved my late mother the most managed to talk to her the next morning..My brother knew she could feel his touch on her hand n arm but could not move. She sure could hear him talking to her.....1 hour after he left , the very gentle Doc called my brother to announce her passing away at 9.20 am ! What a shock to hear the news !
Mother ! we all love u so much ! R.I.P

Event that went on on that very hot day at a chinese cemetery...
Time: 11.30 am to 1.30 pm
