this is kind of a sad post.
because two of my loved ones are undergoing some difficult times now.
one is my aunt on my dad's side while the other is my little niece on my mum's side.

my aunt has been suffering from cancer for a few years now.
it started off with breast cancer which was then healed.
however, i heard from my mum that it actually spread to other parts of her body now.
but recently, her condition worsened a little.
i really look up to my aunt.
how strong and brave she had been over all these years.
she really showed me how one can be so brave when battling with all these illness.
but she cried that day while talking to my mum.
my heart sank.
she is still strong and i hope she'll get over this difficult time soon.
i pray for her recovery.

and as for my niece, she is not suffering from any illness of this sort.
however, at her tender age, she suddenly had some hair loss on the front of her head.
she is still active and everything and not suffering from any internal illness.
but according to the doctors, it is due to stress and anxiety and there are many groups that they categorised. hers is under the stubborn group which would take a longer time to heal.
i really dote on this niece alot and it hurts me each time i see her hair.
i had to be strong in front of her and my cousin (her mum) because i got to be there for them.
at such a young age, i know how she feels when others look at her as though she's suffering from some illness. sometimes, she just kept it to herself.
but i believe she's going to be okay.
all it takes is time.
i pray that her hair will start to grow out again and that she'll be fine soon.

life is like that, we wont know what's going to happen to any one of us any time.
