Ted Cengeng

Mama : Don't cry-lah sayang, you make me feel like crying too..

Me : Dah memang cengeng, mesti la nangis...

How could I not cry, seeing Abah being wheeled inside the operating theatre for his bypass operation last Thursday. He spent two nights in the ICU after the procedure, and was finally discharged this afternoon. He got this year's Father's Day card on the hospital bed - I managed to find a card with the things we expect to see him doing again when he's better, things he could look forward to.

Mama stayed at his side all the time. She's the only one who knew the exact spot to pat on Abah's back whenever he got that cough; and the exact way to pile the pillows when he's sitting up.

I was actually so afraid that I may not get to give him that particular Father's Day card, or any other card for that matter.

Alhamdulillah.
