Day 35: No more superstitions...

Today I defied the wish of my mother to avoid funeral viewing or any other services. She explained to me the superstition behind it. Daunting as it sounded, I didn't let it waver my faith. Only God knows who is meant to stay and who is next to be taken.

What I did do though was to just stay in the foyer and not listen to any sad eulogy to avoid feeling weepy. I just looked after the kids making sure they don't make too much noise.

We should be happy because our friend, after 5 years and 5 months battling with the big C is now in a wonderful place only faith can reveal. You can keep smiling now J.V.!
