Funeral?
Posted at 12:22 PM
Yeah...you might be wondering "Why did Vazeni title this 'Funeral'?" "Did someone die?"Well, yes...someone did die. Fortunately, it's not someone I know. Let me start from the beginning.
You guys know who Sean Green is right? He's one of my classmates at school. For weeks now, there are days where he couldn't attend school. Now, don't come up with conclusions yet...UGH. I'm taking too long!
Sean's mom passed away okay. And for weeks, he was absent a few days to visit her in the hospital. A few weeks ago his mom was taken to New Jersey to be hospitalized there and it must be hard on him. He still came to school joking around and smiling, which I can't even do if I ever lost someone close to me. :( And yeah, when the principle announced it to our class before we went to work, my heart just stopped for a second. I felt like I was going to pass out. Sean's mom? Passed away? I thought she was doing so good and Sr. Janice was always so nice to mention her in our prayers before class started. But I never thought she'd die from her illness/cancer/not sure. And many of you may ask, "Why would you be so concerned and overwhelmed of the death of someone you don't even know?" Well, I don't really know why myself. It just shocked me to the point where I can't even breathe.
And guess what? The whole Loyola class are going to the funeral. Yeah, I stay with the same people for every class and we're called Loyola. And Sean is in our class and everybody likes him. He's my friend too. He makes me laugh. Classes are entertaining. But imagine how he must be feeling right now. Someone who's always there won't be there anymore. And Mother's day passed a few days ago. That is probably his last Mother's day and I feel really, really bad for him. Maybe that's why I care so much. I don't like deaths. I don't like funerals. I never been to one. But I will go to one in a few days.
This must be a turning point in my life. >.< /sighs I dedicated a page to him and his mom in my journal. If my mom died, I wouldn't come to school either. I'd cry almost everyday and then get over it. Because time heals. That's a good thing.
Why did this post get so....? Because it did, and I have been thinking about Sean all day. I hope Yohalis, his girlfriend, supports him the most. Yohalis is such a bright, happy, amazing girl to be around so he is lucky to have her by his side. I'm sure he'll see this as a challenge that all of us one day will go through in life.
Many prayers and support to Sean
R.I.P Mrs. Green.
