This is what I am going through during this year.
Below are some bad happenings in my life during the past few months.
February 2016 - Mum had a hip fracture trying to prevent dad from falling down, when he fainted while coughing. When he fell mum to fell and suffered a fracture. Dad was diagnosed to have cough synops which leads to unconsciousness during cough and had many falls. Since February parents have been constantly ill.
July 2016 – Me and my husband got a house on rent, had to pay one year rent payment as one payment, and got to know it was a void contract. The Investor cheated us and we had to vacate house in October. The investor is yet to make a refund for us. (As at December)
October 2016 – Processed my son’s nanny’s visa spending a huge amount and the nanny wanted to go back to her country, resulting a huge loss of money.
November 2016 – Mum went into depression and attempted to even set herself on fire, but all praise to god she has recovered well in a month.
December 2016 – Parents sold their house and were about to finalize a new house on Dec 14th, but as the old tenants hadn’t vacated the house (they were supposed to on 10th Dec) they still did not get the house. Now they are temporarily moving to my aunt’s house, until this house is vacated by the tenants.
I am desperately trying to hang on with hope about all the above. But it’s not hard to face all these in just a few months, and me being the only child of my parents and living in another country. The reason I am unable to visit them at the moment is as we are still awaiting the refund of our house. And cannot afford to go till the refund is received. And without this refund paying the next year school fee of my son is a question. And we are still thinking if I should go back to my home country as we fear we might not be able to meet expenses if we don’t get our money back. Why so many things are going on in our lives continuously ? It’s not possible to remain strong at all times without being discouraged. I am desperately trying to find answers for these trials in my life. Also my husband’s job is not secure as the institution he is working is supposed to merge with another early 2017 and there is a warning that there will be a huge laydown.
