Appachan

On September 8, 2010, my dear uncle left us on earth to go to his heavenly home. We are deeply saddened as a family, as Appachan was the pillar of the Koodathinalil Family.

Upon Appachan's death, we started digging through old photographs to make a slideshow, it was both therapeutic and heart breaking for me.

It occurred to me that these photographs would be the only way I would see Appachan's face here on earth again. These photographs would tell the stories of our lives with him.

What makes me most sad, is that Sanjay will only know him through these photographs. He won't remember how he loved Appachan's lap, and walking around with his cane, and praying every night for Appachan to be healed.

I look forward to the day when I see Appachan face to face again.
In the meantime, I suppose pictures will have to do.
