On 26 Feb 2013, my stepfather passed on.
It was a very very sudden news when my mum tried calling me @ 5+am. She was shivering... she was crying very very badly over e phone. At first, I tot she called me so early is to remind me to eat breakfast before I slp. BUT e mowent she opened her mouth: she said "Mei Mei, daddy passed away".. at that point of time I was stuck with no words & immediately rushed home as I was on graveyard shift..
By e time I reached home, there were few police officers & a family doctor asking mummy questions. But there lying on the bed was my Daddy, his whole body was very cold with spots on his arms n face. His finger nails turned purple. Why & how did that happen? What happened to him? What caused his death??
Though I kept encouraging mummy, telling her everyone has to go through this stage. Some ppl alight e bus earlier n some later.. But some nights, I will tear quietly in my bedroom... I can't bear to see him leave just like that. 当他在世的时候, 他最疼的孩子就是我。 though We have some arguments once awhile But he has been with us since I was age 10 Yrs old.. 他就像我亲生爸爸一样. Whenever I go through any trials, he will encourage me & always giving me e assurance that his house door is always welcoming me back to stay. He knows that I love eating crabs, daddy once said this "crabs are expensive But with Mei mei ard, How can We do w/o crabs" or he will boil ABC soup for (he understand n knows me well, all my fav food)... daddy, daddy, why make Me tear again. :(
His passing on was a great blow to many of us ESPECIALLY mummy... she has always been very very dependent on him for so many yrs, 一时间她失去了依靠。 那种痛是很多人没办法想象的。
It has been a week from e day he left us, mummy has slowly accepted e fact that he is not ard anymore..
Now most importantly, We r checking with public trustee for his estate due to his bankruptcy status.. mummy & I have spent so much time running ard to meet MP, to find legal aid for help to get letter of administration which cost abt $3k... in e end, public trustee is e one looking after his estate. Went one big round But seems like nothing accomplished. I m slowly feeling very tired.. making us look like an idiot.. feeling so loss , not knowing what to do with such cases..
Daddy has hidden so much things from mummy, found many edvidence from him lying.. But 人都走了,no point bothering abt it. Is it really so hard to b Frank to ur partner/spouse?
I m praying day n night, night n day that his hdb n cpf funds can b settled quickly n my mum can take over it w/o creditors coming into picture to take away his $$$.
God I pray pray pray... pls b good to is, to my mummy...
