Charmaine is in a better place now. She is that happy, cheerful and feisty girl who loved her Mother and brother so fearlessly. Over there, she running around, she is laughing at the wonder sights and she is smiling as she thinks of all the wonderful memories you as her mother has given her. She has fought the great fight, walked through the fires of pain and suffering and now it is her time to rest... not in defeat but triumph and victory...
We learnt always now always hug our children tighter and kiss them more often whenever we have the chance as we must NEVER take our time with our children for granted…
We learnt of the amazing courage of a mother who could have given up to utter despair so many time so much earlier… when you discovered how much the treatment cost… when the naysayer kept attacking you… when the treatment was failing… but in the end still put up the bravest face and took the biggest steps in her life for the love of her child… and still kept up with a blog that must have been so painful to maintain…
We learnt of a wonderful child who kept such a happy and wonderful attitude throughout her sickness and ordeal even though it must have been so difficult to do so… we will tell our children her story so whenever they face a terrible ordeal so that they know and learn what true courage and strength is.
Charmaine and your story will live forever within us and many of the parents who have learnt of this story. It was not cowardly for you to “give up” and say “I lost” today…. it was simply the right time to let her go, to say good bye so she can start her new journey in the afterlife with the blessing of her mother…
Everyone lives but not everyone truly lived. Charmaine’s courageous life while short was well lived.
Take care and now please have the courage to go on with life standing taller, prouder at all you have achieved and become. Live a life that is worthy of Charmaine so when you finally meet her when it’s your time… you too have a life that is well lived and well-loved.

Cyn, you have done very well, please be very proud of yourselves. I’m able to communicate with Char before she crosses over and theses are her words for you: Thank you, I love you, take a rest and go travel, be patient and we’ll meet again someday, I’ll be your guardian angel and stay strong. She’s with god now.

Soooo Sad For Charmaine

Zoe said...

You have been so brave the past 2+ years. I could never imagine if I were in your shoes. Many a time, i teared reading your entries and I wondered how you could go on and on for so long.

I dunno what to say to make you feel better. Can only hope that time will heal your wounds, and the pictures, videos and memories of Charmaine will be a form of solace for you. Press on for Jase.

I am sorry to say this cruel feeling at this point of time but the pain of losing your loved one is infinity.
Though the one who left you hopes you will still be happy and carry on living but the lost feeling is beyond words. Real beyond words.

Dear Cynthia, no comfort words can't makes u feel better now but please be strong. Be strong because of Charmaine. Take care.

Dear Cynthia,
I've only known about Char Char when she passed on, would loved to send her off but only knew about her when i read the papers on Monday. We all know that she's in a better place now and you'll meet again someday. You defintely have all the rights to grief and mourn. A quote for u from me. :)

"There is a sacredness in tears. They are not the mark of weakness, but of power. They speak more eloquently than ten thousand tongues. They are messengers of overwhelming grief...and unspeakable love." Washington Irving
