3:15pm - My Godmother, Lin Wong, passed from her earthly existence today.
My Khai Ma, as we say in Chinese, was overcome by the same situation that took my mother. She had developed breast cancer and endured chemo and a masectomy. Soon after the doctors discovered that the cancer was highly aggressive and took over her lungs.
The entire family is in an overwhelming state of grief and pain. More than eight hours worth of tears and heartache.
When we were in the intensive care room paying our respects after she had passed, I closed my eyes and in front of me I saw my mother arm in arm with my Khai Ma. They were both smiling and waving and nodding to me that everything will be okay. I felt so much reassurance then, knowing my mom has company, my Khai Ma is safe, and they are both watching over all of us.
Rest In Peace Lin Wong
We love you so much.
