"Teta is probably lying down for the last time before she departs to another place. I am scared. Is it because I am writing a film about life and death? But I am not rejecting death in my film. I am simply trying to rejoice life. I miss my baby. At these moments I feel so weak and I so hope we could be together. Teta is sleeping. I wonder where she is now. What is she thinking and feeling. Several people have gathered in this CCU. Coronary Care Unit. Some are happy and conversing as if nothing is wrong. They are probably trying to distract themselves. Or I thought they thought someone was in a very bad situation but they found out they'll be ok. And now I am thinking the angel of death sometimes is too busy. He says keep this person in the hospital I will come for them later. And now he's gonna pass by. Maybe he's dressed as a hospital worker. Maybe as a doctor. I don't know. Maybe I can't see him because I am human and he is an angel. This is so bizarre."
Teta passed away on Thursday, November 4th, 2011 at the American University Hospital in Beirut.

Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji'un. I'm sorry for your loss. May Allah have mercy on her and forgive her ameen. This was very moving, brought tears to my eyes. Insha'Allah I hope to see my grandmother again before she passes away.
Yesterday we were at teta and hammoudi kept on searching and calling for her. he tabbed on the table but stopped directly because the person who used to join him doing so was not there.
