There is one story in particular posted from a Twitter account named “Tukang Jahit Tudung Awak” which really attracts the attention of many netizens.

This is what she shared through her Twitter account on all the incidents that she has to face before, during, and also after her wedding ceremony:
“3 months before my wedding, I experienced a minor slip disc. Because of that, I’ve decided to quit my job with ruffle which I have been working with since the year 2016. The main reason for my resignation would be because I have to travel more than 60km everyday from Kuala Lumpur to Bangi”.
“Just imagine, this happened 3 months before my wedding. But, I still keep my composure because I know that there will always be a silver lining for what has happened to me and that is I have made my part-time job as my full-time job.. I am kind of a paranoid if I don’t have any money with me. Because I have my monthly commitment”.
“To add more salt to the wound, there are still more challenges that I have to face and that is when my beloved mother got diagnosed with stage 4 cancer. This news truly comes as a shock to my whole family. It is rather unbelievable because my mother was absolutely healthy the day before when we brought her out to eat at IKEA and she even laughed happily with us and suddenly she got warded today. All of us pretended to be strong for her. The devastation is almost unbearable for all of us in the family”.
Nak jadikan cerita lg..dugaan aku bertambah bila ibu diagnose cancer stage 4..which is kami sekeluarga mcm tak percaya..bayangkan semalam ibu boleh makan dkt ikea gelak ketawa then warded..kami semua pura pura kuat dpn ibu..korang bole imagine tak remuk dia mcm mana pic.twitter.com/BcRwNpsbB2

“At that time, I am truly torn between two decisions. Should I continue or delay my wedding ceremony? But, my mother said I should just continue with my wedding ceremony even though if she can’t be there with me. I cried so hard inside because I knew that she can’t be with me during what suppose to be my happy day”.
“I have decided to continue with the wedding ceremony and just go with the flow. There is one time that I’ve seen my mother hurt so much and that makes me feel so sad and depressed. Then, I sit down by myself reflecting back on what has happened to me all this while. There is absolutely a positive twist on why I became sick and eventually quit my job.. That positive twist would be that I’ve got to spend more time with my mother until her last breath”.
“The day of the wedding finally arrived. My heart still was torn with the decision I’ve made. I feel so happy but I am also sad because my mother could not be there. Done with the ceremony, Coki and I went to the hospital wearing the wedding outfit to meet my mother. Such a happy mixed with sad experience”.

“The next day would be the reception day. Many of my mother’s friends are there asked about her condition and that also makes me feel kind of sad. When I looked at my dad, I could say that he is also saddened with the situation but he pretended that he is strong to face all this”.
“Until the last day of my mother being alive.. All of us family members are with my mother.. We never left her and we also got the chance to cook every meal that my mother wanted to eat”.
Sampai hari terakhir ibu..kami semua ada dgn ibu sentiasa.tak tinggalkan ibu n dpt masak semua yg ibu req.. pic.twitter.com/BAISX69WBL

“The conclusion that I could learn from this is really simple. Everything that happened in our life would always have a silver lining at the end. It actually depends on us how we decided to look at it. Either to look it in a positive way or even the negative way”
“For those who got to cancel their wedding and lost most of their money because of that.. I have lost my own mother, my best friend, and my talking companion for the rest of my life”.
“Yes, I know every people got their own challenge to face. I am also sorry for all of you guys lost.. I know you guys are strong. Let us pray together so Allah would help us throughout our journey and we all Malaysians would be safe from the contagious disease of coronavirus”.
