Lost

Weekend used to be the time to visit mommi, hoping it was the day she would remember me, recognise me.

Her Alzheimer's won every time, so I had to settle with watching her interaction with wifey, whom she could recognise, and got some solace from that.

It was a surprise to me when she showed interest in Cocoa when wifey showed her the photos, that was a bright moment.

No more. She has gone to a better place now.

There are things in her passing that I was helpless of, but I can choose my own grieving process.

Now that the cremation and sending off are done, as well as the relatives and siblings have left, I can start my grieving process in earnest.

I am surprised by the disapproval from wifey on my choice.
