My own granny...

She passed away peacefully last Sept 27. Although my mom wasn't adamant at all that I fly back to Manila for the funeral, I thought she was the Lola who looked after me when I was young and whenever mom was at work so it's just right to "visit" her one last time.

Nanay Nena took care of me just how my mom looked after her own grandchildren, Luis and Leon.

I remember my Nanay Nena will take me to church, to the "palengke" when I was in kindie. When she had her first stroke, I was already 15 years old. In reverse, I was the one who would take her to the hospital for her therapy and I remember arranging her medicines in a rack of bottles of different coloured lids, labelling them appropriately.

I didn't cry much when she was laid to rest cause I know she is in a much better place now.

To my granny, see you when I see you :)

Condolence.

Magkasunod pala si Amah at si Nanay Nena. Kaya pala biglaan din ang uwi mo sa Manila.
