We're back in Phnom Penh. The flight was smooth and fast. We left Manila at 2:30pm and arrived PP at 8pm. Glad that the stop over in Bangkok was short. Otherwise, we'd arrive in PP late.
EJ had a great time in Surigao. He didn't really know what was happening there. In a child's mind everything is play and fun. Or maybe he did. I am not sure. At one point, he saw me crying. He looked sad and said "mommy, don't cry."
We were planning to celebrate my parent's 40th wedding anniversary this December in a big way. We were all excited about it. Even my mother was looking forward to it. I guess it was the reason she was holding on despite the pain.
We will still go home this December. We have decided to go on with the celebration even without her. I am sure she would have loved that.
It's back to normal here. Back to writing rv financing, and other stuff.
It doesn't mean nothing happened. It means there is life after death. Life must go on.

I can relate to that description of "trying to hold on". My late grandmother was like that, for her birthday. She died few days before that. We still pushed through the (grand) celebration. I know we made her happy that way.
I'm so sorry to hear this. You are in my thoughts and prayers. Be strong.
@ wits - yeah, my mother was really looking forward to the event, that she would tell everybody about it.
Kayni - thank you.
