My man in shining armour was none other than my Appuppa(7 February 2011)


At around 10:30AM that morning, my grandfather passed away. My grandfather slipped into a coma 2 days before he passed away.

16 days have gone by since that sorrowful day. We travelled to my grandfather's birthplace(Aluva)and immersed his ashes in the Periyar river. We even dipped ourselves in the river to cleanse our souls of our temporary sins. We did the final poojas required to relieve his soul and even invited his relatives for lunch.

And yet... Everyday when I see his photo, I cannot believe that there is nothing left than these memories to bank on...
