She is gone.....
They know each other only for months... They were in the same ward, having their bed side by side...There... is where their friendship began.
When HA was much better she was transferred to the ward and having her bed beside LS. They don't have much to do then, they talked, they shared their food bought to them by family. Then months later HA condition got deteriorated. She was transferred back to 4th story ward where she can get more intensive care. LS, ninety over years old lady, not able to see well even at close view, not able to hear well, everyday she would have to look out for people to help to send her up to see HA. Everyday she has to wait for people to fetch her on time down for her lunch....she might know who will, but she prayed that everyday, somehow there will be somebody. HA condition was not very stable, sometime she can't recognise LS, sometime she is demanding, sometime she talked nonsense....but LS heart won't be at ease if she don't visit HA....
She is gone today, HA passed away peacefully this morning....seeing people go...HA at her 50s...LS at her 90s...how can she not shed any tears???
"It's never too old to make new friends,
its never too late to do what you want to do"
I went to see LS the next day, not the normal morning that I need to push her wheelchair up to visit HA....she was on her wheelchair outside the ward.....I went over to greet her...she smile at me and said...."I can start my usual sunbathing again, not been doing that for long time....thank you....thank you all for providing so much help to me...."

HA must have went off peacefully, carrying with her a special friendship. Hope that LS wouldn't take it too hard and continue to make friends.
