'For the last two years, the celebration felt a bit meaningless,' said Omaryan, who lost his wife to Covid-19.
Although he accepts the death of his wife in 2021, the 60-year-old retiree sorely misses her cooking and her preparations for buka puasa and the festive period.
“Everything will never be the same for me without her. For the last two years, the celebration felt a bit meaningless,” he said.He said the presence of his grandchildren, aged two to 12, is what kept away the pain of losing his wife to Covid-19, as he wants to be strong for their sake.“We thought it was a normal flu, but when I brought my wife to the Kepala Batas Hospital, she tested positive for Covid-19,” he said.His wife was admitted after her fever got worse and she developed a severe cough.
“After three days, the doctor called to tell me my wife had passed away,” he said with a voice choked with emotion. Even sadder, Omaryan was not allowed to perform the final rites for his wife as the burial for Covid-19 victims had to be managed by medical personnel.Article type: free
