My Grandpa

RIP..I love you.

My grandpa is a normal guy in his 90 who had dementia for years. He called everyone including myself 'mama' because he knew we were taking care of him. He passed away on Feb 5, 2010 (on my mom BD). He's a farmer and a sub-district headman all his life till he fell ill. He's a humble man and very generous.

Most of the time he wouldn't remember anything. Sometimes when he did, he would tell people that I'm doing a PhD in England and he's waiting for me. I am glad he's proud of me; the only thing I regret is that I couldn't finish it in time. This degree means so much to him and to so many other people (more than to me). Sometimes I took it for granted.

He had lived a good life. I'll miss him a lot.
