KEBUMEN - Sunarmi's feelings were erratic when she tried to approach the Governor of Central Java, Ganjar Pranowo. He finally gets to meet his son's idol, who has now passed away due to cancer.

Sunarmi accidentally met Ganjar. He received information that Ganjar would go to Kebumen on Tuesday 11 January for a working visit. Thankfully the info was accurate and he was able to meet Ganjar at Pak Kasman's Sate Ayam Ambal food stall. At that place, Ganjar, who had just arrived from Semarang, was seen having lunch with several local social media activists

Upon meeting, Sunarmi told about his son, Bagus Wahyu Kurniawan. Every day, Bagus always follows Ganjar's actions through social media.

Good once told his mother that he really wanted to be able to meet Ganjar. What's more, he knows that the white-haired governor often visits the sick.

"My child is sick, cancer. Continue to see Pak Ganjar also see sick people. He said he wanted to meet him," said the mother of three.

But Sunarmi did not know how to grant her son's wish. Until Bagus died last December 11, the deceased had never been able to meet the person he idolized.

"My son wanted to see his father when he was sick, he said he wanted to be prayed for, I've been asking how to do it, but it didn't work until he died," said Sunarmi quietly.

Ganjar also expressed his condolences to Sunarmi for the loss of his son. To Sunarmi, Ganjar strengthened and prayed that his late son would receive forgiveness and husnul khotimah.

"I pray for husnul khatimah," said Ganjar as he raised his hand.

Even though he is still in mourning, Sunarmi is happy to finally meet Ganjar. He really tried hard to meet to convey the last wish of his late youngest son.

"I just said it. Thank God, Mr. gGanjar prayed for my son," said Sunarmi.

Sunarmi said her son died late last year after battling cancer since 2018. The late Bagus, said Sunarmi, had wanted to continue his studies. However, due to his illness, Bagus had to focus on treatment.
