After doing errands with the family my dad wanted to eat Vietnamese food in the area of Fremont . My dad brought us to Pho Lan Noodles House for our lunch. We all decided to eat one of our favorite Vietnamese dishes. We had ordered some appetizers fried wanton and fried chicken with fish sauce . My dad had ordered Lemongrass chicken include with rice and salad in his meal but was already full when he had eaten his wife's meal. She had ordered the Chicken Banh Mi and chicken clear soup. I wanted to try their Pork Banh Mi sandwich and requested no jalapeno pepper on it. The sandwich is quite big had to slice it in the middle and the remaining was for takeout. The filling of the pork was a lot of serving soft and tender had a lot of flavoring. The bread was also soft even if it was toasted. Family members had ordered the Garlic Chow Mein with Shrimp .

I had received a text message from an unknown number letting
me know someone I knew had already passed away.
I thought it my mind it can be someone who can be sending me
fake news or a scam to only find out to call the phone number.
I found out our old employer who had worked for us so many
years has passed away her name is Manang Ofel the person was just having like a
mother figure. Manang Ofel was always a jolly person and always smiled. Manang
Ofel was very nice to me and treated me like one of her daughter. She always
had something to give me as she came to visit us.
I was wondering why for so many months she had stopped
sending me messages and every time she had a day off over the weekend she would
text me once a week.
The last time I saw Manang Ofel when she had attended a
funeral last March 2019 one of our relative that had passed away. She had cry
so hard when she was there and made a scene.
Her daughter in-law saw my name in her contact list and
recognize the name as she kept hearing it from Manang Ofel. She wanted to call
me up so many times, but never had the courage when you are a stranger and you
don’t know how to begin to contact to those who you think your mom is close to
you don’t know where to begin as you are still grieving with pain in your
hearts.
Manang Ofel had pain in her liver and it got bigger than her
eyes became yellow so there was no more cure. She wanted to be buried and
remain her province with her family.
Manang Ofel worked so hard to build a house for her family,
but couldn’t appreciate the house she built by neglecting her health.
Manang Ofel is not the only one I have known has encounter
this type of situation sometimes even if you work hard, but take your health
for granted it becomes useless to earn an income and not enjoying the house you
have built.
It is better you don’t take your health for granted.
For all the good times realize there are a lot of people who
look so healthy but never tells anyone that they are feeling pain inside.
This is why based on my story if you are not feeling well
please inform your family and never wait till it is too late. It is harder to
except when you leave your family without them knowing you we’re feeling some
kind of pain, but never did anything about your illness.
