life is cruel sometimes:(

Last Christmas, JP & I were so saddenned to hear about the sudden death of a family friend. Two weeks before he dies, he was diagnosed with stomach cancer, the doctors performed the surgery but later found out that the cancer was no longer curable. It was too late and the doctors can do nothing to help him. He suffered severe pains and died at the age of 53 leaving behind his wife and thier 3 children.

The day after the New year, Jp & I attended the funeral, it was so solemn and very different from what we are used to in the Philippines. When his three children read thier "derniƩre adieux" I can't hold on my tears to fall.. I know how difficult it is of losing someone very dear:( May his soul rest in peace!

Nakaka-awa naman sya pati yung family. Yung father-in-law ko nagka-stomach cancer din dati pero he survived it. His cancer came back 2 more times but thank God he was able to live through it. Life is really precious kaya we need to let our loved ones know how much we love them. :o)
