Her 80 years old Self!

Today, she packed some food and told me that the woman (Susheela) next door and her children went to sleep with empty stomachs yesterday…

She could barely walk with a shivering eighty years old body and yet she managed to walk till the front door waiting for Susheela to get the food… Sometimes she cries thinking of their plight…Lamenting to herself… About the things which did not happen…

Sometimes I wish if I could tell her that no one lives next door, that susheela lives just in her mind..!

Maybe that’s what Bipolar disorder do to some people..
