  • On the 29th of July. . .

    an Angel was sent back to Heaven, to be by God's side.
    Her name is Susan Fielder, my second-cousin.
    She was taken away at the tender age of 26.
    No one understood why.

    Susan is always happy, smiling, laughing and terribly cheeky.
    The naughty one of the Fielder twins.
    Samantha on the other hand is more quiet, shy and the responsible one.
    For 26 years of their life they've been inseparable until now.

    It's been awhile since my family and I last visited them at London.
    Still remember how we always like to surprise them at the doorstep of their house when we fly over to London during our school holidays.
    I've always love to visit them and be at their house.
    Somehow I always feel really comfortable like I'm in my own house whenever we are there but it felt different this time around.

    Even though the house is still the same, the furniture is still the same, the smell is still the same but something is missing.
    It used to be two of the Fielder twins running down happily to greet us, hug us and kiss us, this time only Sam came running down and instead of smiling, she was tearing.

    Stepping into the house was difficult for me.
    For I do not get to see and feel Sue anymore.
    For I can only see tears instead of smiles.
    For it feels different cause I cannot hear Sue's laughter in the house anymore.

    I didn't know how I should feel.
    I didn't know what to say to console Sam and both my UncleGeorge and AuntyChris.
    I didn't understand why such a terrible thing happened to someone who is so terribly loved and such a good and kind person.
    I am ashamed for I was angry at God for taking her away.

    We then begin preparing for her funeral.
    And along the whole process, we slowly see why God took her away from us.
    There really isn't a good reason as to why she was taken away so sudden and quick.
    There isn't a reason for us to grief in pain as well but ten thousand reasons to celebrate her life.

    For she brought relatives and close friends from all over the world and even long-lost friends from high school and college as well as university to have a huge gathering and gave a chance for everyone to catch up on each other's life and to talk about how great she was, I'm sure she was smiling in Heaven the entire time.
    For she didn't want to and chose not to work during holidays and chose to travel around the world and met so many friends along the way and had such great time and is probably really happy that God took her to Heaven and did not have to work in her lifetime.

    For she is such a terribly wonderful and joyful person and has brighten up so many of her friend's life with positivity and her endless cheekiness and have become a popular celebrity in her own term cause she knows so many people and all of them love what a great person she is.
    For she have lived her life the way she wanted and both Sam and I agree that we don't think there's anything that she regretted not doing and have lived a truly fulfilling life.

    We should celebrate her life most of all because even though she was taken away from us, she gave at least 5 people the chance to live. 
    Her heart was donated to a 13-year-old.
    Her lung was donated to a 12-year-old.
    Her liver was donated to a young man who just becomes a father.
    Her kidneys, pancreas and lungs are donated to help others as well.

    She had something like a brain-stroke, which doctor's believe to be an inborn defect.
    There weren't any signs and it hit her while she was on holiday in Wales with her current boyfriend.
    Sam and her parents rushed to Wales to see her but they didn't get to talk to her as her condition was really bad and is in a coma-state.
    I didn't get to see her for the last time as she left us while my family and I are transiting in Bahrain.

    I no longer question God's purpose of taking her away from us at such a young age.
    I no longer grief in pain and sorrow.
    I've learnt to smile while reminiscing our times together.
    I can now smile and tell people the story of an Angel that I knew.

    She is an Angel for she was such a wonderful human being.
    She is an Angel for she brought nothing but joy to other people's life.
    She is an Angel for she is loved by many and so dear to many.
    She is an Angel for she gave life to others while hers ended.

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    I will forever miss you Sue.
    I will forever miss your cheekiness.
    I will forever miss your laughter.
    You will be forever loved, missed and remembered.
