It’s been more than 4 years since I said my goodbyes…Alhamdulillah, 4 years later The Almighty has blessed me with the opportunity to be breathing still. But the journey hasn’t been easy. Not only for me but even harder for my family who have been making many sacrifices.
Yes, sacrifice! And today is the perfect day to talk about sacrifices. Cos sacrifice comes in many forms. As for my husband and my children, they have made the biggest sacrifices for me.
When people around the world started to learn how to live under the new norm since last year due to the pandemic, our family has been living under this more or less same norm since my health started to deteriorate many years back. When the people around the world had to make many sacrifices such as not being able to go out, not being able to work, not being able to go on holiday, etc, our family has already been living under this norm for many years. And I believe we are not the only family - many others who are fighting their own illnesses are the same.
My life has been a rollercoaster ride with ups and downs and many bumps along the way. But I am blessed to have a husband and children who have been sacrificing and adjusting their life according to my health. And I am beyond blessed to have a family that have been patiently taking care of me and have never ever given up on me.
Truthfully, I can’t possibly repay them for all of their sacrifices. I am ever so blessed and grateful to have them in my life. Without even thinking twice, I would trade my life for them if I have to. And for all of their sacrifices, I pray that Allah reward them with the most special place in Jannatul Firdaus…🤍
Eid-ul-Adha Mubarak,
Mrs Mom
