Bhuchu died

Bhuchu died. At 5.40 pm, just a little while after I made the blog entry about her being sick. She died in my mother's arms.
I could take everything, but I couldn't handle it when I had to give her over to the guy standing at the edge of her grave, layered with a bucketful of salt, and she was laid down. and she didn't budge: contrary to my hope against hope, she DIDN'T budge. I had to put the soil back on her limp body, her face, and her EYES. I was trying to be strong, but the tears just burst out then, you know. I am sorry.
I hope you rest in peace, and being the great daughter you were, I know you are in heaven.
