I cant attend...

Heard a sad news today... Ah Jin mother passed away due to cancer reccurance.

She is one of my "zhu peng guo you" in sec school and i cant be there for her.

WHY?
My grandfather had just passed away and its not 49 days yet. According to chinese custom (sigh)... My MUM say i cannot go.

:( so sad, i really wanted to be there for her too as she also attended my father wake.

she is the same as me, eldest in family.
I wish her strength and courage.
I know she will.
