A 15-minute chat, albeit one-sided as she can no longer speak. The chat was interspersed with the dribbling of her voice. Without food and water intake, surely, this is the final stage of her journey. I was at a loss. I had no idea what to say or do. The Christmas gifts at the hospital bedside, surely she wouldn't have use for them any longer.

I left with a sense of loss, tonight was probably the last time I'd see her again. || posted by Kuan Hui
