Bittersweet.

My uncle passed away from Lymphoma last Sunday. It’s one of those crazy stories about him going in because he thought he had a persistent flu that he just couldn’t get rid of. It’s diagnosed as pneumonia and next thing you know he’s on a respirator.  And you find out that the doctor’s give him only a month or two left. It’s that sudden, that quick.

I guess on some level you also feel relieved that it wasn’t a long ordeal that lasted for years. But that’s not much consolation. It’s also pretty amazing to see the courage and strength that arises from these sort of situations.

Nevertheless it’s always tough to say, “goodbye”.
