Guess which baby is my mother and which is Tee?

Thank you, Frank, for thinking of me.

First of all, do I have a disclaimer that my mother would not be reading this, as in, this will not get back to her? Ever? Because if it does, all hell would break lose and my head would be pulverised (neck first followed by nose) on her chopping board. The old wooden two inch block. She’s come close. So close…….

I could write two to three books on my mother. Thus having to select 8 random facts is indeed an undertaking of iniquities. I mean, she did have ME after all. And since I am such a daughter of gratitude, I shall endeavour to summarise the 120,080 words of my Mother and her Amazon life, in the most simple way I know how.

1. A high risk gambler where the stakes are high and the chips are low, Mom played her first draw when she had me. Having had to cope with an abusive family and an even more abusive archangel, namely herself, Mom has come a long way since but her gambling streak has not waned. She has been a stock brocker for more than 15 years and is Queen at the jackpot machine which has earned her a lot of money.
2. Mom is taller, slimmer and prettier than me. When I was a teenager, all my male friends secretly wanted to hump her. Really.
3. Although I have seen and experienced a dozen generous hearts in my lifetime, nothing beats that of my mothers. Mom opened our growing up hotel to many, many friends and family in need throughout our childhood. Or maybe she just wanted free babysitters. Up to now, people still call on her for help because they know she has the most generous heart; always helping people, even strangers.
4. Mom has a bad habit of not drinking water that she has passed down to me. And now Tee has this same problem. I don’t know why I don’t get thirsty and because I don’t, I forget to drink. Until I am shrivelled up into prune face, way dehydrated.
5. Mom prays five times a day. She needs to. Her cancer is terminal. And she smokes.
6. I have also never met anyone with as much patience as my mother. She can tolerate bad behaviour without reacting, she can spend hours sewing beads onto clothes, knit, crochet, make quilts, bake, arrange flowers really, really well. Actually, it’s also talent. Real creative talent.
7. Before she became a stock broker, Mom owned a florist named Madame Dior, was a trained beautician from the Lucy Clayton School in London, and a secretary to Mr King of King’s Agency, a renown property consultancy in its day. But when she left school, she was only earning RM100 a month and had to starve so I could eat.
8. Mom loves nothing more than her 3 children and I am so grateful to be a part of that love. She really loves us fiercely, this woman.

So yeah, just 8 facts about my Mom……
