Rest in peace uncle...

My 2nd uncle (mum's bro) passed away this morning. Not sure if its last nite coz he was found dead this morning lying on the floor. Dunno whether to feel sad or happy for him coz heard he's got cancer in addition to a stroke few years back. He was living alone and they suspected he fell down while trying to go to the toilet after a bath or what.

Although I am not close to him since young coz he seldom talk to us and was quite fierce when he was younger, I feel sad for him. He died alone although he had 3 wives and many children (about 6-7). As he was not faithful to all the wives in the younger days, he was left alone after suffering a stroke few years back coz no one wants to take care of him. Although his sons still send him money and paid for his medical bills, they probably found him too difficult to take care. Most of the time, he was alone although sometimes my parents would visit him. Apparantly he was not sent to old folks' home coz no one wants to fork out the money. I dunno what to say about his kids, but maybe this is retribution.

On the other hand, I feel happy for him coz its a relief for him finally. Just hope that he will be better in his next life....

Rest in peace uncle...

  2. yeah morbid relief for him. juz felt sorry for him that he died in this state. how helpless he must have felt when he was breathing lying there, but noone to his rescue. but i guess he knows his time is cmg, and he has accept the fact. he must have fallen aslp b4 he died. i think that is the best way for him.

    sad....

  3. Ya I guess so. Its all fated maybe else he would not have just died like that. Alot of old folks fell and died probably coz they r fated to go like that. Everyone should be relieved coz its really not a bad thing also.

  4. yeah... heard from mom he is 68 yrs old. hmmm havent reached the average death age for guys yet... maybe he ate too much pork...

    but at least before he died, still gt ppl visit him, wash his place, and even bought food for him.

    hope he is happier now. no pain, not lonely. i prayed for him to go heaven and be reincarnated and have a happy life n family in his next life.
