He Has Left Us

He is gone! He is really gone! What happened? I really do not know but I am very sad. My tears rolled down my cheeks. I just can’t control myself.


Did you remember the old man I mentioned in my previous post? I have just received a bad news that he is dead. When he fell down that day, we knew that something was not right with him. He could not walk and he could not even talk clearly. That very night, the ambulance came to take him to the hospital.


I really have no idea when exactly he died but it has been some time ago. We got this piece of information from his neighbor and all of us felt sad as the old man was really a kind man. May he rest in peace.

What Happened Yesterday?

Thank you for all your concerns and well wishes. I am back today. Yesterday was over. Let all negative feelings disappear and not affect me.


There were actually two incidents. I will share one with you and the other is just too personal and I would appreciate if I keep that to myself.


About noon, my tenant ran into the house and called out to me: "Please call the ambulance. Somebody fell and his head is bleeding!"


Hubby rushed out to take a look while I got hold of the phone and started calling 999. After making the call, I went out to have a look. Oh, it was an old man who fell and that old man is a very kind old man who lives nearby and voluntarily cleans the neighborhood compound everyday without asking a single cent!


It must have been the heat that he fell unconscious. We took a goods trolley to push him into our house and gave him water while waiting for the ambulance. He became conscious after awhile but his legs were too weak that he could not even move.


We then ask him where he lives and what his telephone number is so that we can inform his family. He didn't know how to reply but gave us a number "1286" as his house number. We knew very well that the house numbers are all 2 digits but hubby still went to look for his house. I don’t know what hubby did but he eventually managed to locate his house and inform his family members.


His son came and the ambulance came too but his son asked the ambulance to go and he said that he would send his father to the hospital.


Last night, we received his call asking us where his father fell as he couldn’t find his father’s identity card and he couldn’t bring his father to the hospital. I was thinking: WHY IS THE OLD MAN STILL NOT IN THE HOSPITAL? He fell at noon and it’s already night and he’s still without treatment??? What is the son thinking?


I was really confused and worried for the safety of this old man. What did the old man do to deserve this? I don’t want my children to treat me like this in future. So, I am going to put in a lot of effort to be my children’s best friend.
