Whenever I hear news of an impending death, I get a slight tremble. Knowing a person does not prepare oneself to the final reality that we will part company soon. My only hope is that the ongoing journey would be bearable to those closest to him. The doctors say the prognosis is bad. Maybe another six months. I hope that he would not suffer an agonising death. May it be brief and painless. Suffering is never pleasant.

Impending Death

My only hope is that the ongoing journey would be bearable to those closest to him. The doctors say the prognosis is bad. Maybe another six months. I hope that he would not suffer an agonising death.
