Bad News

My paternal grandmother has gone into a diabetic coma following an overdose of durians last week. No it’s not funny. She has apparently been asleep since last Sunday and my aunt finally panicked and called an ambulance this morning. The doctor says she’s very strong inside, and should wake up anytime now.

Right now she just lies there waving her arms around with her eyes closed.

I’ve just gotten back from visiting the old nyonya matriach and got a shock. The flesh has withered from her bones. She’s like a skeleton lying down in her bed. It seems like she’s semi-conscious because she acknowledged my voice and presence by nodding her head when i asked her if she could hear me. I stroked her hair and held her hand while I told her about my week. And then just when I was about to leave, she opened her eyelids briefly before drifting off again.

My family thinks she might not make it this time. Wedding plans may be canceled.

Sorry to hear about your grandma. Take care.

dude. wrong choice of words.

wedding plans may be postponed, you mean?

be strong k? take care

i hope she will get better soon.
Take care!

Hang in there, dude. Hope she’ll get better soon!!

Oh dear. Will definitely pray for her to wake up and for the wedding to happen — surely she wants to be part of that! PS Hope you and your father have a King of a day together.

Hope things will turn around and all will be ok. Keep the faith.

take care dude. My prayers and thoughts go out to your family

Don’t worry too much. Diabetic comas are seldom lethal in themselves. Patients tend to recover just fine once the insulin gets in, in the hospital. Hope she’s better by the time you read this.

Sorry to hear bout your granny, Cowboy. Hope all goes well!

Sorry to hear bout ur grandma too, hope she gets well too!

Well, look on the bright side of things, and things will turn out well in the end, eventually. Cheer up dude and a speedy recover for your grandma!
