Mother’s Death

I guess the saying “Time Flies so Fast” is really true, sometimes we just dont realise that , even the tiniest details might even have the biggest meanings or a person we truly love could be there then the next second they’re gone it could also be used as an indicator that “Time Passes By” since most of us are so caught up in a certain activity perhaps work and more......

Well that is all what I can say for now...... But I suggest when your around with that special someone in your life make sure you always say the word “goodbye” before leaving them cause it might hit a point where you cannot say your one last and final “goodbye” and that’s what happened to me......

Hi there , let me introuduce myself my name is “Eleanor Reece” call me “Ellie” instead. So what if I told you there was a time in my life where I felt extremely hopeless and unfortunate and a spark of fire suddenly came into my life that became my “light” whom guided me to become the woman I’am today. Oh how I remember so clearly the day we met , he was my first love indeed......

Let me tell you a story...... all of this started at winter break about 10 years ago when I was 15

December , 1 , 1980

I don’t know where to start this , even I’m confused if I were to be happy or sad. I remember as I was about to go out of the classroom I was filled with joy knowing I get to celebrate christmas again and a long winter break with my family and snowflakes were just everywhere and it definetly was a sight to be seen until I received bad news and that smile turned to a frown......

“Ellie I’m so sorry , your mother passed away earlier this morning” said by ‘Mrs.Lou’ (School Teacher)

“That can’t be true , my mother is a strong woman” said by ‘Me’

*When I heard those words as if my heart stopped beating for a minute and was in a terrible shock and I can feel the tears flowing in my cheeks*

“I know it’s hard for you sweetie , I remember last year I lost my mother too” said by ‘Mrs.Lou’ (Shool Teacher)

“No! , this is different , did you loose your mother without even saying your last and final word while they are still living?” said by ‘Me’

“Well I did get to say one word to my mother and that was “I love you” and it hurted even more cause I got to see my own mother die right in my eyes in the hospital and I was hoping she would say back “I love you too” but she didn’t as I saw her eyes close slowly I knew that was the end of her “lifestory”...... But instead she said “We’ll meet soon” which she meant that I’ll see her again through spirits *Tears fell from Mrs.Lou’s eyes* said by ‘Mrs.Lou’ (School Teacher)

I’m sorry , I didn’t mean it said by ‘Me’

It’s okay , I know its hard to loose the woman who gave birth to you said by ‘Mrs.Lou’ (School Teacher)

Sorry to interrupt , but can you please tell me where my mother is?......said by ‘Me’

She’s in the hospital , Can you please give my condolences to her? said by ‘Mrs Lou’ (School Teacher)

I’ll make sure that she receives your condolences “Mrs.Lou” and can you please tell me which hospital is she in? said by ‘Me’

Oh she’s at “Memorial Hospital” and its just 2 blocks away...... said by ‘Mrs.Lou’ (School Teacher)

Thank you very much “Mrs.Lou” said by ‘Me’

*As I was about to ride my bike “Mrs.Lou”gave me some advice at first I didn’t really care but as I get older I know exactly what she means and I’m ever so greatful for her existence*

*And sometimes I always wonder words are pretty much the most powerful way to change a person but when I was young I thought it was “Hypnotism” which was wrong especially if you use it in the wrong way*

*And all I can say is that “Mrs.Lou’s” words definetly changed me and helped me saw another perspective in life*

Oh and before you leave , I just want you to know that “Always keep your head up high cause this is only the start of your long journey” said by ‘Mrs.Lou’ (School Teacher)

Okay , I better get going know...... said by ‘Me’
