Series of misperhaps in my family

March 2011 wasn't a good month to cherish after all. Other than my sis's birthday, the rest are all disasters and series of accidents. A week before the school holiday, my bro Jason met with motor accident and injured his left wrist. He went for an operation to insert a wire in and fixed his bones. He needs to go for series of physiotherapy and will need to wait for 2-3 months to fully recover.
11 March 2011, the whole world is shocked to hear about Japan's tsunami + earthquake. Not only that, their nuclear plant exploded too, which resulted in a total lost to the country. My heart dropped when I saw those photos in the newspapers. I reminded myself to appreciate even more with what I have now.
19 March 2011, mum fell while hiking the mountain. We didn't know until she called us on Sunday morning just before entering the operation theater. This is something which I fear the most each time when I heard them hiking those mountains. Reason being that mummy is a diabetic patient. No one would ever want to get themselves hurt. She hurt her left ankle, and I sensed this must be a bad one!
She must not step on the floor for the coming 6 weeks. In 10 days' time she will have to go to take off the stitches. But from now, it would mean a complete change to our family. I understand why mummy didn't want to inform us earlier. Yes, she didn't want us to worry for her as we have our own family to look after. Then again in my mind, I couldn't think of anything else but to be there with her through these few weeks.
I discussed with Theng and thought if we can take turn to go back to take care of her. Now that Jason is injured too, that leave only papa himself. It will be extremely difficult, I couldn't imagine what will happen later.
I knew mummy didn't tell us all the details. I knew she is very sad now. I knew she must have blamed herself for making us worried of her. I knew she treated herself a burden to us. But I just want to tell her that she musn't think of all those but instead sharing with us. No matter how hard, we shall go through this time together.
Kuan Yin Ma, please please please please , a thousand, million, billion, zillion please to bless my one and only mummy. Let her recover, give her strength to go through these 6 weeks. And I shall be truly extremely grateful! Let Jason recover too, and bless him with his SPM examination this year!
