My Aunt

My oldest aunt and my mother's closest sister had passed away this Sunday :( 

She was the sweetest lady and she was sick for a long time, thanks to diabetes her whole body started to go off about two years ago, her kidney, her eyes..etc. 

Two months ago she had a stork in her brain , it was tough but she was speaking , not normally but she was not in a coma and everyone was hoping that she will get better soon. T

hen a week ago she got sicker and they had to transfer her to Jeddah, a few hours before she passed away she awoken , talked to her daughters and even ask for coffee...but you know death, it comes when you are not prepared. 

May Allah rest her soul, she suffers a lot. 

الله يرحمها و يغفرلها

What really kills me is that her favorite son, the youngest one is studying in America and since it's impossible for him to be here on time, the whole family decided not to tell him. 

The worst thing is that no one even told him that she get sicker and had a stroke a month ago, every time he calls they told him she is asleep !!! . 

And now he is coming back at the end of this month and it's really scary and sad, at least how i think of it, coming back not knowing that his beloved mother is gone and not only gone but been gone for a whole month is devastating !!. 

I told them to try to tell him but they keep insisting that he has exams and that they wouldn't want him to fail in his exams !!!

but aren't these only things that we can do over and over again if we wish but not having the chance to say goodbyes to our dead mothers and fathers is just a once in a life opportunity !! 

I hate judging people but this is the worst -in my opinion- that anyone can do to anyone else, taking their chance to say goodbye to their loved ones away :(

update: alhamduliAllah they finally reasoned and decided to tell him.
