Hi, yesterday my uncle and his family had a fire accident. I’m shocked to hear the news and am not sure how to react..  I wanted to help, but i myself am helpless when it comes to situations like these.  I was affected by what happened but unable to express it to them.. I want to show my deepest concern because they have been hospitable with me and my brother when it comes to ‘no where to live, dormitory not open’ matters. The problem is HOW.. if we visited them in the East Avenue Hospital, what would we do there? what will we say?  For sure there are more visitors that they will entertain, those who were really close to them. If we do speak, its awkward since we never communicate except for one question one answer scheme. So we might as well do not visit them and look like we never cared at all… It hurts to think of it that way. But it seems there’s no other choice to make.

This unfortunate event made me more depressed on how our stand is when it comes to our relatives. Bloodlines who are more attached will immediately go to the hospital to visit them, but for us,  we have to think twice, thrice until the opportunity disappears. I’m ashamed for myself. It will be difficult to face my uncle after what happened… But that is how we grew. I can’t blame my mother since she tries her best ever since. It was plainly our choice. So what now? Each day passing by I am bothered by the situation..** sigh** ..I guess i have to live normally and continue battling the last two weeks of the semester, prevent my kids to become like i am now…. and…. Pray for my uncle, that’s the best thing i could do for them right now.
