Lunch downstairs... you know the drill.
After breaky, my cousin came with us to shop for a bit in Mong Kok. A sudden flow of dollars prompted us to get some major shopping done.
I love the H&M Here. I can shop for hours. And the lack of tax makes it soo much better.
Today was a special day because after 10 long years, we finally got to see my Yeh Yeh (grandpa). He has Alzheimers and we were worried that he wouldn't remember us. But right when he saw her, he could recognize my Mom. Slowly he looked at the rest of us and you could see his face light up as he realized that his grand kids had come to see him.
Truth be told, he's not in the greatest condition. After watching videos from our last visit, it aches my heart to not see the healthy younger gramps I knew.
This man was much older, skinnier, and doesn't seem all there. But he was still my grandpa. I hated seeing him like that. But when he realized who we were, he really did seem happy. So happy that throughout dinner he held back tears. Tears he later let flow freely when we had to say goodbye. The hardest thing we've had to do. I didn't want to let go of him.
