There's A Death at the Opposite house.

Remember this title ? it was a poem from our form 2 english literature if 'm not mistaken. It was about the hustle and bustle of her neighbours preparing for a funeral.

Well, now i see the same thing as she did. There is a death at the opposite house. This is a tragic case. I mean, which death is now tragic, just that this is really tragic.

The deceased, is my neighbour's son, only 21 this year. SO young. He suffered from liver cancer ( last stage) which spread to his lung. Initially it was kinda cured by chemo. But duno y he suddenly got blood clot in his brain, then he fell into coma...

After coma few days, they brought him back coz doctor say no hope already. I remember just 2 days ago, he had this critical condition when his oxygen tank is out of oxygen and he was just inches away from the door of the after life. At that moment, i walked in his house, and i heard his girlfriend saying : You cannot give up, you must hold on. You promised me. Remember ??
OMG, at that moment, I was overwhelmed with grief. I wanted to cry. Tears was almost building up already. This is like a scene from a movie, but no. Its reality. Its really very very sad. The people around him was tearing already..

He was save that time. But that night, his parents decided to 'pull the plug'. They don wanna prolong his pain and suffering. Surprisingly, he was still able to sustain after they pulled it out. It was what they say he "doesn't wanna go". You can see his determination and will to live was still strong. I mean, if it was you, just 21 only, haven't experience many other things that life have to offer, would you wanna give it up ??

Unortunately, at 5.45am ytd, he went on.... There was a sad feeling in me. Feeling so pity for him, he was just 21.
