Rest in Peace, Datin Seri Endon...

Datin Seri Endon passed away this morning at 7.55am.

Sad that our PM has to lose his beloved wife after a long hard battle with cancer.

Sad that many couples take each other for granted and wished the other was dead.

If only we can prevent people we love from dying. And love the people we are hating.

My condolences and prayers to the PM and family. May God's comfort be upon them in their time of bereavement.

*My condolences and prayers as well. It is wrenching to watch a loved one slowly dying. I have never had to watch one with whom I am IN love die, and for that I am thankful. I do know several people who've gone through this, and I don't even know if I'd be strong enough to last.

My father died slowly when I was 10. People have this stupid idea that one must go in and view the body after death to really say goodbye.
I resent them all for making me look. If not for that I could have at least had my last memory of him being patting his granddaughter's (not my daughter- my sister's) head.

*I'm also not sure if I'd be able to stand strong if someone I'm in love with is suffering and dying. Can't imagine how the PM must be feeling now :-(

Mark, I'm so sorry to hear that your last fond memory of your dad was one where life has departed from him. The least the others could do is to respect the wishes of the loved ones left behind - whether they choose to pay their last respects that way or not.

*Live would be so hard for Pak Lah for losing his beloved soul mate.

As for me, I myself can't even imagine if I lose someone that I love, especially my family. You're right. We do take things for granted when we still have someone that we love. Like me, I always quarrel with my siblings, say things badly to them. But deep down inside, I do love them. And I can't afford to lose them.

*Yep, it's so easy to take our loved ones for granted. And we love them to pieces, even if they can be pests sometimes (referring to lil' bros) :-P
